I'm curious as to what responses you'll get.

My understanding on scenario #1 is the norm is a 10% breeders fee added to the wholesale price of the seeds.

#2 is more challenging and I do not know. Perhaps Fred Hemple will drop in and offer insight.

#3 is likely close to #2 but has an added wrinkle that might lead to a 4th scenario:

4. If you're sharing the early generations, what happens if something interesting shows up in another person's grow out. It's not what the original breeder was looking for, but interests the other grower enough that they bring it forward to stability. What would be appropriate compensation for the original crosser in this situation?
