Hi the community

New account but not New here. Thanks for having back

I'm trying to get back to growing a few after a lil break. I was going to buy some street buds but where i'm based it's so hard to get anything that stick and stink.

I would like to start with cuts instead of beans. Anyone knows if "the clone bank.com" is this a legit place?

I leave with this one, before the cookie candy cream gas terps where the hype...Thanks to Logic and the farm
Who remember this one ? The Kraken ! I got those beans from hear a longtime ago...

Looks legal

Legit hummm legit cash grab and no way to get your cash back if it fails , has a disease or bugs I dunno if I would take the risk of ending up with a duff.

Prices are mad $99 for one clone
Also has “ All sales are intended STRICTLY FOR NOVELTY PURPOSES “

Mind so do some seed companies add that. i avoid them the do add that

Might be fine who knows bud
Welcome btw

this was very popular and almost a pre-req on all seed sites and still kind of is, the same as many call it bird seed or novelty gifts or gear. It's all just "CYA" (cover your ass) verbage

Very recently, he is doing clones for a giant organization in Oklahoma. He is keeping his seed thread open though.

Real sleazy clone seller market these days. Placed 4 orders in 2 months that had stem canker on all plants, so guaranteed to die. First 2 were seed canary and strainly, and they knew they were selling infected crap, since on verge of dying, and had removed 3 or 4 lower layers of leaves that had died. The other 2 had initial signs on delivery, and crapped out a few weeks later.

Big issue since most sellers guarantee they will arrive alive, but no guarantee 24 hours later and could have Fusarium, Pythium, and/or HLVD, although so can seeds. 30% chance of infected parents passing disease to seeds.

Has anyone tried mg1brands or getseedsrighthere??? MG1 pushes snips over clones, and starts every ad with no guarantee, which makes me think he gets many complaints.

I ordered from there a couple months ago. I ordered rooted cuts of Gushers, GG4, and TK. I got TK, GG4 and Orange Peel, since I guess Gushers took too long to root. The next week, I got rooted cuts of Gushers, Zkittlez, and Tropical Runtz. So, the OP, Z, and Runtz were freebies.

Growing them out now, except for the Trop Runtz. I'm seeing some weird 3 leaf fans on the up-potted clones of the GG4, TK and Gushers. Will report back after I flip and update. No signs of any other bugs, etc so far. I just registered to leave this comment since I haven't seen theclonebank mentioned anywhere else yet as far as ratings go.

95% chance they have fusarium/pythium like the vast majority of online clone sellers. Can kill in days if full blown or months if mild when it arrives. Poor rooting, canker or mold on stem just above soil/coco, leaves dying from bottom up and rarely falling off, leaf twist, stops growing, etc.. Ordered 20 plants from 5 sellers in 3 months during summer, when high temps make it rampant, and only one survived. Have turned to tissue culture which can take up to a year, to get what you should get just buying clones from people making thousands of percent profit, from pennies worth of supplies.

If you have the money and want to be sure, order test kits from tumi genomics. Can get pythium or fusarium or hlvd for $25 a piece, of all 4 for $60. Only problem is must buy 10 and can be stored for a year in fridge. I do not have the money, but they are so blatantly infected, I know what it is. Mine could have had hlvd also, but that duds the plant where fusarium almost always kills before harvest by clogging stem so no nutrients make it tops.

I ordered from them, kept getting it will ship any day for over a month. Asked for money back and denied, so got it back through credit card company, so sleazebag to start. A couple of months later package arrives with what I ordered and thought what a great guy. All infected plants that started dying within days. Can not find a low end vendor, that still makes thousands of percent profit, that does not have plants infected with mold/bacteria that causes stem canker and/or fusarium wilt.

Avoid MG1brands, MG1seeds, Medgrower1 at all costs!!!

I have given this gobshite a month to return e-mails and make things right and have been ghosted using several e-mails, so he is getting them. He must be a crackhead, between the website that looks like 5 year old made it, a generic about page for 3 years, instead of description when clicking on item, lengthy post steering people to buy cuts, but saying not responsible for anything. He is not only sending out infected plants, but he knows damn well they are infected, but hoping to last long enough to blame buyer. Told him as soon as they arrived that 2 did not look very good. All 4 were stripped of first 3 sets of leaves, since fusarium stem canker kills plants from bottom up with leaves dying. 4 days later tell him they are definetly stem canker infected, and send pictures of 4 cankers. No response. Trying to save since he is making it obvious he just ghosts any complaints, tried to save long enough to attempt taking cutting hoping they were not infected from bottom to top. When watering can touched the pina colada, the worst one with cankers, and it cracked. Brittle stems is early veg sign of HLVD. About 7 attempts to contact and nothing. Does not have phone number or take any traceable payment methods, Tried saving with tissue culture. Soaked in water with drop of soap for hour with stirrer, then 10 minutes with 10% bleach, then rinse. TC media had PPM in it which prevents most environmental contamination issues. In 3 days they were full blown covered in fusarium radiating from explants, which is clear indication of fusarium infected clones.
It is very easy and extremely profitable to sell clones, and be a legitimate business person. This is scammer, knowingly selling crap.
