I have to agree with smoking habit's point re: seedbanks. He's absolutely right about recreating a purple haze wannabe being entirely possible.
I'm not going to come out and say, "such and such a seedbank is lying"; however, seedbanks are for-profit entities and are suspect in the way that dealers are. The drive to make a profit could forseeably cause a seedbank to release a product that is a sad copy of what it purports to be. We have to as growers be able to communicate with each other and give honest grow reports on new releases, which is the only way to really keep the vendors in line.
possible...yes
but yet AGAIN all i see is assumptions.
If you can't prove the seedbank wrong then they are correct.
Purple Haze is as real as any other strain. I have smoked it. I have seen it.
It was crap like most other purple strains. If i wanted seeds for a purple variety i would certainly not choose PurpleHaze, neither would anyone else ive ever talked to. So why would the name "purpleHaze" expect to make more money? If your knowledgable enough to be growing ur own weed you would never even consider buying PurpleHaze cos its shite! Its likely its the banks worst selling breed!! So why would they lie? What do they have to gain?
Because silly little kids think of "purple haze" as the best strain around.
It's SO obvious, from the amount of idiots making threads because they've got purple haze and it's great and its this and its that.
The name is associated with GREAT weed amoung younger smokers. THAT's why seedsbanks would lie about strain names.
It's the same as any other strain name.
Dealers make up names for their bud to jack up the price. Simple fucking as.
Leave it to the kids then. But the majority of kids dont buy seeds. They dont grow and if they do its usually bagseed. Their market must be very bloody small then.Quote:

I wouldn't class a good seedbank the same as a filthy lying street dealer.
They are innocent until proven guilty in my eyes.
I might start a new thread, " WhiteWiddow........, does it exist?"
Your too trusting... and that will be your biggest downfall. NEVER belive everything you read, hear and see without concrete proof.Quote:

Even chances, and with even chances, no ones innocent, EVERYONES guilty untill proven innocent.
If the innocent untill proven guilty thing was true why do they arrest people and lock them up before they get convicted of the crime? Because they are guilty untill proven innocent.
You dont work at the seedbanks, so you cant say they are lying, and you cant say they are not. You cant comment on it, no one can, so why bother?
WHY, would a shit strain like the real purple haze be kept when we ahve all these new super strains? The name may be used, but it's almost definatly not the real purple haze.
Whatever...Guilty till proven innocent......lol .....lmfao
Im quite happy to be trusting. After all if no one trusts each other then society dies.
I have to differ.Quote:

If you can't prove them wrong it doesn't mean anything else than that ..um.. you can't disprove their claims based on the info you have access to.
edit: stinky beat me to the punch.
You suck at debate. The burden of proof is not on us skeptics, but the seedbank who claims to have this strain.Quote:

I am willing to be convinced, but you can't just tell us that we have to believe that seedbank because they have no reason to lie. They have a reason to lie, and we have no reason to trust them since we do not know them.
You say that if we can't trust each other then society falls down... well guess what? In the world of online seedbanks there are shady bastards and we can't just trust them all. I have never heard of that seed bank or bought from them, so why should I trust them again? Please forgive me for not being naïve and trusting everyone, but I have been ripped off and I know that people lie for money.

OMG no, YOU beat me to the punch... I had almost this EXACT argument, right down to the FSM (lol I <3 FSM!) all written out and then deleted it thinking it would just make this thread too complicated... I was also going to put something in about the Teapot (look up FSM on wikipedia and it comes up as related).Quote:
