The grass is always greener on the other side...well, that's what most of us think until we get there and realize our grass was pretty dank! In this episode, the fellas reminisce about the dank…
Pigeons 420HostChrisHostUm, figured maybe we could talk a little bit about the changes in prices of genetics, bro, because holy shit.
Yeah, man, it's a conversation that I think a lot of people are having right now because as we see more and more companies, brands jump into the space, we're seeing a lot more, um, variance in pricing of genetics, whether tested or untested, feminized or regular, and it seems like it, it, it's a smorgasbord, it's a swankasbord of, of, of, of prices out there, and I think it's, it's a worthy conversation as to really how did we get here? Um, but, but yeah, great conversation.
Yeah.
I remember back in the day where it seems like not too long ago, uh, you know, you get a 10-pack for 100 bucks or less, and those were regular seeds.
Now we're seeing people charge 300 bucks, 400 bucks, 500, $1,000 for a 10-pack of regular seeds.
And it's like, what, what, what is different about what you're selling versus all the other genetics on the market? Is it really worth so much more money [laughs] for those, for that 10-pack versus a 10-pack that has an average price of, you know, 100 bucks per? I don't know, man.
It's tough.
It's tough to know.
Like, is it really the breeder that's doing it and it's really something special, or is it just hype? Is it just somebody who's popular posting things on social media and they're like, "Oh, they can charge high prices because of that."
You gotta think, dude, like back, back years ago, it was 100 bucks, right? But then I also had to pay for the insurance, and I also had to get a tiny fucking shmedium or I had to get a cup.
So by the end of it, my order was 175 bucks sometimes, dude.
And if I'm getting it from the UK, I'm hoping I get it in three weeks to a month, if not longer.
You know? So it's like, and I get it in a weird sketch container that I don't even realize that's what it is, like a DVD or, uh, like a stuffy, just random things like that.
And I'm like, "Okay, that's cool." But the probability of you really getting what you're getting was rare, and you'd get a baggie, you know, like I got one right here, a baggie with a, a label on it.
You know? This is just empty bag, obviously, YouTube.
There's nothing in it.
If it would, it be mullein seeds anyways, 'cause that's all I'm into.
But this is what you'd get.
So do I know this is from the breeder? Do I know this is legit? Because a lot of times that was our only opportunity.
You get it from the back.
I remember the very first time I ever got seeds, and I'm not that old despite the grays in my beard, but the very first time I got it was from the back of a High Times magazine.
I got Fake Bud, which was, um, salvia, and I got seeds, and the salvia was not fun.
Some people enjoyed it, didn't, didn't like it.
