Damn. That really can't sound any more generic lol
It's actually a decent site. Set up to look more medicinal. You just have to ignore the "junk" you get in some of the email adverts.

They DO have some damn good genetics and are a pretty good choice for seeds, especially for a new grower. They guarantee delivery and their seeds to an extent. BUT, they do try to sell you EVERYTHING else as well, forever. They have some damn good deals on occasion too. The only purchase I made from them was lucky timing, they had a special where you received double your order on all their regular seeds.

I really like their white widow and pineapple haze.

Stronger/better bud ....


I've seen you talking about some crazy ideas lately homie.....first heavy defoliation now plant splitting....why don't you start playing frisbee golf or something...lol jk btw

How's your plant
Defoliation was "secretguys" idea, not mine buddy. lol. Splitting stems is also not my idea. It's an email i got from a seed company. I just posted it because i thought it was some pretty crazy shit and thought it might bring a laugh.to some.

My plant is doing very well. very lush and green and tons of new growth. I topped it a week ago and it has responded very well. I'm glad I didn't listen to "secretguy" and and chop all the fan leaves off.

I'm not knocking the genetics by any means. just laughing at the splitting of stalks. My Kush plant from them is very well formed so far.

Oh, I know. That's why I didn't quote you. I was informing the other guy.

Personally, I'd give my $ to an " I♥growing marijuana" over a "Dank Seeds Yo" every day of the week. lol

Even IF they suggest you try some old "trick" for "possibly" better weed. Iol

Now, while I still pay overseas, my beans ship from the States. Can't beat 3-4 days with tracking coast to coast. :bigjoint:

Tip 1: Apply this technique 3 days or a week after harvest, not sooner!

Tip 2: Try it on only your male plants until you’ve mastered the technique, then only apply to hermie's

Tip 3: No need to extended the dark period before harvest....the normal 12 hours of darkness is good enough
Normally I just cut my stalks the DAY OF HARVEST. I dont see why splitting them after Iv cut them down is going to do anything :P

That's how long I waited for ILGM last December. I've ordered from Canada a few times since, 7-9 day average. Now all my beans ship from Co.
Very Nice!
I guess I don't mind the wait. I was just happy to find out that i could actually order from somewhere. My first two grows were with bagseed and it had no high whats so ever. It was a lot of worthless weed.

I've been smoking really shitty for a long time. I'm really hoping ILGM does indeed have good genes

Hi guys,

this week I have some great stuff including:


Want denser buds with higher THC levels?

I will show you a trick! The purpose of stem splitting is to disturb the flow of nutrients and water right at the base of the stem.
This will cause the plant to start producing more trichomes which means heavier and denser buds with higher THC levels.


Make sure to read my article How to split the stem to increase THC levels after I tell you how to do this in 3 easy steps.

How to split the stem in 3 easy steps:

Step 1 Tie the stem with a rope or cable tie right at the base. Tie a second rope or cable tie a couple inches above that.

Step 2 Take a very sharp knife and cut from the top tie to the bottom tie. There should be one vertical cut that is a few inches in length.

Step 3 The knife should remain inside until you have a pencil or chopsticks to replace it with. This is to keep both sides of the marijuana plant from touching each other.


Check out this picture gallery and learn how to split the stem.

Splitting the stem causes stress on the plant and forces it to create more trichomes.

Trichomes serve as protectors of the marijuana plants. Specifically against pests, diseases, low temperatures and wind.

Because of this protective feature, more trichomes are produced during times of stress. Take advantage of this special feature and read this article about splitting the stem and many more secret tricks to grow huge buds and increase your yield.

Tip 1: Apply this technique 3 days or a week before harvest, not sooner!

Tip 2: Try it on only 1 of your plants until you’ve mastered the technique

Tip 3: Ever extended the dark period to 48 hours right before harvest? Read more here
Why do you talk to so many dumbasses? No bro, no.
