Numbers pulled straight from each company's public site.
Most clone shops say "lab tested." We tell you which lab and post the results.
Every mother is screened with TaqMan RT-qPCR. Same assay industrial growers run. Results live on our Lab Results page.
Mothers come from sterile tissue culture, so you don't inherit the pathogen load that builds up in old, repeatedly-cut commercial stock.
New genetics get quarantined at a separate facility and put through meristematic cleanup before they ever touch our production room.
Every order goes through the same four steps. Buy one clone or twelve, same flow.
We ship early week so your clones don't sit in a UPS facility over the weekend.
Tracking number hits your inbox before the box leaves our nursery.
Free upgrade to UPS 2-Day Air on every order. Less time in the box, less stress on the plant.
Crush-proof shell, rooted, ready to transplant. If something's wrong, the replacement form is in the footer.
Tons of hard to get clones. New hype stuff plus old school stuff like real Sour Diesel, Gushers, Stardawg. Great selection of hard to find stuff at a good price.
I ordered last week and they were just delivered this morning. Less than 6 days from the time I ordered to the time they were in my hands. Each clone is over a foot tall and you can see how nice the roots are.
Stuff growers ask before they switch from The Clone Foundry
That is definitely a question we have been asked. What I have read is everything from clones arriving with spidermites, powdery mildew, but mainly HLVD. tests by customers coming back positive. A few people said communication was horrible and a few said the owner was incredibly rude and defesnsive. This is just what customers have told me and what I have seen on Reddit and Overgrow, but I have never ordered from them myself.
No. Shipping is free on every order, and the owner won't call you a jack-ass like The Clone Foundry's owner has been known to do.
Yes. We use 3R Biotech's TaqMan RT-qPCR assay and publish results on our Lab Results page, linked from the footer.
GSRH ships nationwide from our Aurora, CO nursery. Most growers prefer that to driving to New England.

Buy one clone or twelve. Free UPS 2-Day Air either way. If they don't show up healthy, we replace them. That's it.
