I just placed an order from Seedsman and the freebies were clearly stated on the invoice that they were fem/auto. You not getting autos is one of those things that make you go hmmm.
I'm with CaliforniaKid. Don't ditch the photos. You are in a legal state right? Since you went to the dispensary, so can you not grow them outside? Are you allowed to grow? Or keep them in the fridge for a year or two and you might change your mind about photos....I'd love to be able to grow photos outside, but live right smack on the Buckle of the Bible belt, and we aren't a legal state yet.
I hope these new seeds are just what the doctor ordered.
