new seedbank recommendation

hello GWE peeples. i just wanted to post this because i believe a job well done deserves as much "attention" as one done poorly or not at all...usually people only write if they are complaining or have had a bad experience, and i get that...life is short. but i believe that it is just as important to go the other way too...so, that said:

i was in a monthslong search for the elusive Dr. Grinspoon... and by that i mean i would spend all manner of the wee hours of the morning looking for ANYWHERE that had them in stock. it's a seriously seriously hard strain to get your hands on--use google if you're interested. so mostly i would go from seedbank to seedbank, looking for anything, but getting only that sucky sad OUT OF STOCK message...it was as if i thought if i just looked LONG ENOUGH somehow i would find them...lol. well apparently that paid off. bc one night i was doing <<< and stumbled into a little shop called Cannapot, located in austria.

holy shit, they had grinspoon IN STOCK! right then, lest they go out of stock in say the next 5 minutes, i did a teensy amount of high speed research on them---almost no online presence, not a single review to be found using multiple search engines, website was....fine... anyway, no particular red flags NOT to order from them but also didn't look like they'd been around even a minute....for example, no mentions here, over on reddit, nowhere.... so i decided, fuck it, if i get scammed, i get scammed...i've spent about 100 hours looking for this damn thing so i'll take a $78 chance that they're legit and if not, lesson learned. right about then i saw that they had signed a "sponsorship" with another popular website...then i was like ok, maybe they're just NEW....i mean, if they're willing to fork over the $$ to sponsor a grow forum, well that's a sign of good will and seriousness.

today i got my grinspoons.... i ordered them about 3 a.m. on a sat night/sun morn and they had shipped....SHIPPED!!!!!...by tuesday morning... holy got their shit together, batman!!

seriously, my order spent more time sitting in one spot at HWDC than it did at cannapot, by ABOUT A FACTOR OF 3, no joke.

plus...PLUS...they were SO nice and friendly over email...did i mention that THEY emailed ME..... not the other way around? and that quickly!!! those of you who have placed, say, more than 2 seed orders will understand how nonstandard this is. now, it could be that since they are new, they're doing things extra good and if they get too big too fast that could certainly change...but lots of things *could* happen....like a package getting stuck at HWDC for say, 13 days...but i digress.

this is not a paid endorsement or advertisement or anything like that (please see first sentences ^^^). i just wanted to give them their due, and hopefully help others out in the process.
 
Always interested in a sativa seedbank, thanks. I see they Raspberry Cough which I haven't seen around for a while.
I'd order the Dr G, but I haven't seen anyone grow it in the last couple years and end up with the 'weird' beaded pheno that they show in the photo. Still sounds like good herb though. Plus I have plenty of good strong sativa strains going and just spent a few hundred on new seeds this week. Tempting though....

Weird that they're the only place that has it. Yours was in the BF packaging and seems all legit?
 
i got the last ones they had... i know bc i sent over a couple people who i knew were also looking...they were sold out....within hours.

in order to get insured shipping had to opt for removal of original packaging...that was the one complaint i had about the whole thing. but that is commonish...had to do same for my seedsman order. so no, i don't have the BF packaging...but yes all seems legit...

do you have a dedicated sativa grow room or are you running all your strains together? apologies for not remembering the answer to that if you've already covered it...

i haven't had any luck finding raspberry cough either!
 
No i just have one flowering room and juggle things around. I have a little drain-to-waste hydro setup for growing one-off strains because it's fun. Then some scrogged and unscrogged plants mixed. Perpetual grow so all different flowering stages. It's all on 11/13 lighting which would be about the only difference maybe between the sativas and indica mixes- other than feeding needs which means I'm always mixing a lot of different nute batches each feeding. I usually have around a dozen strains going. I have five main keepers right now and maybe 9 (?) new strains going as well. Oh yeah and the remains of the last DTW batch so I guess about 17 strains altogether right now. It's a bit of a pain but not that bad- I can cut corners and lump some strains into the same feeding mix. Worth it though to keep things interesting.

Weird that they had to unpackaged the Dr G seeds. Sold out now, as you said.
But they definitely seem like a legit seedbank and have some of my favorite strains.
 
just got a friendly reply email from CANNAPOT people....that is full name Cannapot Webshop in Austria and Germany, and they have been in business since '04 and are very well-known (unbeknownst to me) in austria and germany and they slowly over time began delivering overseas, which they say is why not much online...i told them that might have been due to my english-speaking only bias in my searches.

so to sum up, they are not new, not scammy, and they are really really nice....all good friendly correspondence, even after the fact... could NOT recommend more.
 
I have been watching cannapot,it is on seedinfer people,anything on seedfinder is legit most the times!! Glad to hear you got the ducks in!!Happy duckfeet ;)
 
and yes, 2 freebies.

unexpected as there was nothing at the time the order was placed, ie. like on other sites, nor on my actual billed "invoice" indicating there would be any. but when i opened the package, there they were. so to recap for erbody i got 10 fem dr. grinspoon for $78 plus 2 freebies.
 
shit, sorry, no. here's what the little label says on the 2 freebies: Cinderella 99 fem and then below that ApeOrigin Bonus.
 
Thanks for the review. I'm looking forward to watching her grow and smoke. I looked for that, but got Dr. Shiva instead when I couldn't find it.
