I'll agree that there's variation between a single batch (don't have experience this time around with this happening but I'm sure hot spots happen).

That said, I dose every 3 days - usually only once a day but sometimes I'll give in an add another 20 G later on - for months now since august the seeds have been sub par and I figured it was tolerance. I have been using a bag of SN and FTL (don't have dates on hand).

I would mix both of them or use one or the other. Both were sub par and I haven't gotten good euphoria from tea for a while now. I've increased frequency a tad bit but have never dosed over 100 G at once for whatever reason - more weight doesn't = more fun for me usually, or at least hasn't since seed quality dropped.

I just got a 5 pound of SN direct 7/25 and I now realize what I've been missing and why the magic was gone. Still dosing 80-85 G's (did a test dose of 65 yesterday). Today I did 85 at once and i've been high all day. Before, the high was lasting like 2 hours and after that it sucked. I'm going on 7 hours now and its still good like it used to be.

This hopefully means I've unintentionally lowered my tolerance with the previous batches of short-lasting, shitty seeds.

I guess my point is that I'm sure, for some, tolerance / bag variation is causing the confusion / inconsistency among bags w/ the same date. That said, the bag I got was good (I'd say 7.5/10 if not potentially an 8 or 9 - I'll know in time more specifically).

So I'm sure all these 7/25's are going to get bought up - but there is great potential for the 7/25's to make a lot of people very happy and satisfied!
