Hawaiian genetics at it’s finest

Ordered from these guys 4 times now cause my friend who lives on Maui recommended them and they come through every time, especially being cool with the freebies (1 extra pack). Yes, it did take a week to have the order shipped out but if you simply email them they’ll get back to you within a day to confirm your order is being sent out. A lot of people are getting on the fake websites and getting scammed, so double check the website people!

BUYER BEWARE SCAM SEEDS

I found 808 genetics on instagram when i was looking for kauai electric sativa. I grew kauai electric when i lived in hawaii and wanted to find it again.

The breeder for 808 genetics is a guy who calls himself @supakauai or @drJ on instagram. He has over 20,000 followers on instagram so i thought he was legit. I thought wrong.

After following @supakauai on instagram for awhile i saw a seed auction come up for kauai electrics. I thought it was the old sativa kauai electric so i threw down over $200 to win the auction. When i grew the seeds out they were all different weird phenotypes. One smelled like og kush and was all small? None of them were kauai electric. When i came back to ask him the story he gave me some bs about how they were heirloom seeds and were the real deal because he lived on kauai. Then he stopped responding to my messages.

My friends and family on kauai said most of the kauai electric going around on the island these days is fake and they thought the old sativa kauai electric may have went extinct. I had to do some more research so i looked on his website and found discrepancies in the description of kauai electrics.

808 genetics says they are releasing f1 and f2 heirloom kauai electrics as a marketing gimmick but if you know about breeding bud you would know a old sativa like kauai electric would be stable phenotypes not all different weird ones. F1 is a cross of 2 different plants. F2 is when you cross the babies of those plants to stabilize the strain.

808 genetics is scamming people into thinking they have kauai electric by adding a "s" to the name kauai electrics. They got me good but they won't fool others because i am getting the word out.

If i am going to be tricked into paying over $200 for bs kauai electrics f1 hybrid seeds grown in some kids backyard the world is going to hear about it. @supakauai and @808Genetics are using the mispelled name kauai electrics to trick people into buying their seeds.

Now 808 genetics is selling other unknown crosses like kauai pie on paypal and instagram ripping other people off who do not know any better.
