The Seedy Side Of Seedbanks

I always get mine from herbies... never had a problem an the customer support is great.. an they will send u another shipment if tje first gets siezed... i had some cookies-n-kush fems from barneys farm that went to shit.. 2 didnt germ, an the other 3 were freakin male.. great luck right . Anyway i ordered the seeds a year and 8 months ago an never had a chance to run them.. so i figired i was SOL beings it was so long ago.. so i emailed them anyway an the said that the next time i place an order i can pretty much pick whatever 5 pack i want long as its about tje same price.. so thats cool of them to do..
 
No Title

Got my order 😁👍🏼 As with Gears royal tracking said on its way to Toronto and then nothing for 9 days and then it appeared. Envelope was super easy to open so not sure if customs had a peek or what. Was "hidden" in some stick on gems but not exactly stealthily..... regardless they are here. Super pumped 😝

Great MommaBear !

I didn't want to rub salt in a wound. So, when my second order arrived a week ago yesterday, I didn't mention it. :)

Same thing about Royal Mail's "tracking" this time. I had them in my hand and their tracking site still said "On it's way to Toronto, Canada" ( I don't live in Toronto)

But, that is out of the control of Seedsman, of course. Delays are from waiting on Canada Customs to clear it.

I only bought the 5 Nirvana Northern Lights. All the others were free. It would be hard to gripe about that! :)

Hey, I got some of the Gorilla Glue auto from Seedsman, too!! We can compare your coco grow to my hydro grow.
 
you guys have me convinced I'm going to try seedsman, still like Bonza seeds and have never had a problem with them. Maybe I'll order some from both sites on same day and see what happens
 
Hahahaha no worries Gears 😉
You're getting quite the seed collection going!!! I'm hoping to have a nice variety in stash some day #retirementgoals
 
I have to say that I was pretty impressed by Nirvana (Netherlands). They were HUGELY less expensive for decent seeds (my Aurora Indica Feminized seeds were on sale, too), and I got them in fifteen days to California from the date of ordering by mail. I bought with cash, which I thought was completely insane, but it worked out no problem. They really were on top of everything and the "stealth" packaging was perfect.
 
Seedsman has a great rep, I hope they come through. I made an order a month ago, I show the transaction but they don't. Ruth there has been great but honestly after a month I've pretty much given up, lol.

My Nirvana order, placed the same day went like:



Ordered 5-13-17 (Saturday)

Shipped 5-16-17

Arrived 5-25-17


I may try The Vault next. Of course if Seedsman does come through they'll have a loyal customer. And Nirvana is on my "short list" of go to places.
 
A lot of strangeness happened putting in that order. Honestly it wasn't shocking this happened it was so bad. That was all on my end though, and like I said Ruth has been good to deal with, so while the time length is depressing, there's still hope, lol.
 
I'm always tempted by the discounts they offer if I DON'T use the credit card, but I always use the credit card cuz it seems safest.
 
I wanted to update on Seedsman.

Got an email from Ruth today and it looks like they've got it straightened out, and my order, and apparently some freebies for the inconvenience, will be on it's way to me. I'm not even actually sure they found the payment on their end.

Ruth over there is great, I really expected to get screwed over in this mess, but I am pleasantly surprised. All I can say is Seedsman is a class and reputable outfit as far as I'm concerned!

A friend was given some "Jack Herer" [sic] Auto seeds from HighSupplies.com. The seeds came in a transparent plastic bubble packaging leaving them exposed to sunlight which wasn't very encouraging. Of five seeds only two popped and the resulting plants have been very disappointing. One of the plants self-topped, completely failing to develop an apical stem.

By comparison I highly recommend Mephisto Genetics and Nirvana. I have had very reliable germination with seeds from both vendors and great results :)
