Lol, I bought a single seed of this because I liked how it looked in the pic, oh well, maybe it will still be half decent.

I have seen this sort of thing going on for years in the seed industry....

Someone buys a bunch of regular Nirvana-Dinafem-Sensi-or whoever seeds......renames them and punts them out as if they are the breeder.....

That is why ICMag is such a useful tool for the discerning grower.....because they can directly interact with the REAL breeder of many seed varieties that have their own forums here.....

Don't buy seeds just because they have a fancy name......first try and see if there is a breeder that will back up what they have grown and try to see this within that breeders grow-logs, and the grow-logs of those that have actually grown these seeds out.......

most seed banks are greedy whores, I mean who would be stupid enough to actually read the info on a strain there. It's all 90% non accurate......

Turned out to be a great plant, huge yielder, frosty as hell, very happy with the results, running it again right now.

Me too!
I don't know the scoop on the pineapple express and who originally bred it since I got it as a freebie. Mine is from G 13 Labs. I hope it is ok to say i'm not usually that impressed with their strain selection but this one IS worthy of growing.
It grew well indoors and is doing very well outdoors this year. I'm surprised at its pest and disease resistent qualities.
For me this has been a strong healthy grower.
Stealing pics or genetics is not cool :( but unfortunately , it happens.
Sorry dude.

Noone originally bread it it's a seedline given this name to cash in on a shit movie that was popular when the seeds came out. This thread is about how the seed co stole Racos pics of something entirely different and used it as the pic in their catalogue, it's called misrepresentation and happens an awful lot in the canna world :tiphat:

kush brothers, who are not together anymore, did a pineapple express before the movie.. it was a evil pineapple cut from the mendo area in cali x with a bubblegum x mango dad... w.wonka

thats what i thought this thread was about the kush brothers one , guess there must be other pineapple expresses out there , shame bout the photo being ripped roco , if they had chose a less well known members picture to rip they may have got away with it for a longer time .
:artist:nice pic they used mate

hello

hello

I do not understand that the seed companies that do not take your own photos, making it clear that this is the strain that is offered. I think that would give them more reputation and professionalism. Credibility.

Just saw this thread. Damn seed co's love your pics Raco. As many of them that have stolen your pics/strains, they ought to pay you a retainer for future plagiarism.hehe Hope you are doing well.

Nice picture. However, be patient, wait for legalization, then sue their asses off for all they are worth.

Im not a huge fan of that tactic, but I feel it is deserved in this case.

The young people, buy what him the magazines sell, photos of plants put him of others and to gaining money, pure marketing, every day there go out banks of feminized seeds selling copies of copies and to very expensive prices, to the this pace in approximately two years mas I end the history of the cannabis, only shit was cultivated of genetic, slightly stable and trustworthy, him fuck the marketing and the false breeders that go out in every corner.A seemed shit I happen with the X-18 also they pirated it, in seeds, the fools of Dna pirates and here nothing happens, they it avenges the pocket to be filled by the work with others.

Raco and I have been friends way before ICMag was birthed, and we are friends most likely because of his friendly, open nature.
What sucks most about these so-called companies exploiting Raco, is it's made him, and by extension, a lot of other folks, wary.
You no longer see the same Raco in public that you did 5-6 yrs ago, and that sux. :frown:

Peace & love got ambushed on the hippie trail.
