SEED HELP

[mickey oneil]

Quick question. I’m in the states and usually get my seeds from the nirvana website. Seeds I’ve received from them lately are bunk. Many of them don’t make it. I’ve also got seeds from greenpoint, which are awesome, but they don’t have feminized beans so you have to plant multiple and hope the ones you plant are females—and I don’t have that time to wait and determine... do you have a website you get your seeds from that ship to the US and allow Cc purchases? Thanks in advance for your help!

Sucks youre getting bunk from Nirvana. I just grabbed some more wonder woman and mango skunk last year some time and they've been running great as usual. I did order from attitude and had to use Bitcoin. They made up for the ridiculous transfer charge with like 20 random free seeds. Some dank ogs and a few reservas if I remember right. Sorry that I didn't offer you a real answer. I'm curious myself so hopefully someone chimes in. I'd love to support American if possible.
Edit to clarify. I ordered some dank genetics beans from attitude not Nirvana. Those I always bought from them directly

I'm posting to get some ideas as well. I've been growing the same strain for years and suddenly have the urge for something new. Hope you don't mind me voyeurising your thread.

I've used The Attitude twice for seeds. Got my package pretty quick with stealth shipping. I recommend you give them a try. The breeders I recommend for fem seeds (which I usually go for over regs) are:

Barney's Farm, Cali Connection, Humboldt Seed Organization, and anything apart of the DNA Genetics Family which includes DNA Genetics, Crockett Family Farms, Reserva Privada and GYO. I'm sure there are a bunch of other fantastic breeders on the site, but those are the only ones I have experience with. If anyone cares as to what strains I'd recommend from these guys, I'd be happy to reply.

Neptune Seedbank is another high class seed site. The owner boasts how they only buy from the most elite breeders. Ironically today, February 15th, the site is down for maintenance. But I have heard from a fellow grower I know (who grows testers for Mass Medical Strains) that they are legit AF.

thanks for all the info. I fancy a nice Sativa over indica... would love to hear your recommendations on strains. Thanks again!

Do they really take cards again? Assholes. I could've waited to run the sour dosidos until next month to avoid buying Bitcoin lol

That was a typo and not meant to be sent...but I have heard attitude takes cards now... haven’t confirmed...lol sorry for any confusion...

Ironically, I always tend to pick more Indica leaning buds.. so I don't have many staiva strains to recommend. ...

Humboldt Seed Organization - Blue Dream. I got a fem seeds free with a promo they did a few years ago when I first bought seeds. Let me tell you, that one seed took off like a rocket. Real dense bud and a very unique stink. Its been a while since I've had it in my garden. Cant quite remember the smell, but I remember it being vigorous with a soaring high.

DNA Genetics - Lemon Skunk. I ended up picking these up because they were (and I think still are) DNA Genetics cheapest seeds. Lol. At the time it was what I needed. Its not a heavy yielder by any stretch, but the bud was super lemon-y. Almost too much. But I like that kind of taste. Can't remember the high too well.

Now if its indica strains you like.... o boy do I have a list for you lol.

As an update, I am unnaware if the attitude still takes cards. The last time I ordered from them was like spring of 2016. I've been trading clones with fellow growers for a long time now to keep my garden diverse. It's cheaper than buying seeds.

Thanks again... I’ll check the attitude card validity and report back. Lol. Maybe not inundate me w a slew of indica—but maybe a top 3-5 off the top of your head...??? I don’t like a crazy couch-lock strain. I’ve grown
Blue Mystic
Hijack
Hijack auto
Transiberian Auto
Acapulco Gold
Bubbilicious auto
AK-48
Jock Horror
And a few others I can’t remember

Seed Question: I have bought a lot of seeds in the past, now I see the going price for "Icebreaker" seeds is $25 to $70 per seed depending on where you get them. Is this a bit expensive ? Why do they cost so much ?

 

[Organic Altruism]

If you don't want a crazy couch-lock, try these:

Humboldt Seeds - Pineapple Skunk I had this in my garden longer than any other strain (Almost 2 years). It is a work-horse and a half. Always was the most vigorous grower. Thick stems, strong broad leaves, grew fast. It has a lower THCa rating (around 17%-18%) so its kind of a more speedy high. Awesome for smoking and doing your daily stuff. It smelled like tropical drinks you'd find at a bar. Very fruity. The taste was very similar. If you like pineapple, I can't recommend this strain enough.

Cali Connection - LA Affie Turned purple. I dont know what the THC rating on this is but I remember it being a good head high. True laughing/giggle bud. I remember It being a slight combo of earthy and hashy? It's an alright producer. Like the Pineapple skunk it was quick to grow tho, the stems weren't as thick but it definitely performed.

White Alien - GYO by DNA So this is actually the only GYO seed I've gotten from that branch of the family. I usually go through Crockett or DNA themselves. But this one was special. I forgot the seeds in a jar in my closet of all places. (yes i understand they should have never been there, but I forgot you know?) When I moved I found them. They were probably 2 1/2 - 3 years old, but all of them still germinated and were great plants. They weren't stunted or slowed at all by time. The pheno I got tasted like an earthy citrus mix. Which is probably why I liked it so much lol. Above average yielder IMO but loves to be fed nutes a little more than the others.

$25 - $70 a seed? That's madness. Even top shelf breeders only charge like $15 - $18 a seed. Not sure why someone would charge that. Are you sure your not thinking of $70 for a 5 pack? that would make sense.

Same here and another reason i havnt ever had to look. Now my buds are out of the game and they let their strains go without even a phone call... Ill trust in you guys and order soon from somewhere.

 

[mickey oneil]

So, I came home to these in the mail from Greenpoint Seeds. Great packaging and very fast delivery with tracking. Only bad thing is I hate not knowing which are male and female... they do feminized but are out of stock now and when in stock, they are quite pricey.

How long does it usually take to tell if a plant of male or female?

Thanks homie. Ima check them out.

You can force it if you like, just about whenever you want. Grow it out a little, then switch to 12/12 for about a week or untill it shows. Then kick it back to 18's or whatever veg cycle lighting you do.

 

[Organic Altruism]

If you don't want to re-veg any of your plants, clone them and throw the clones into flower to sex them (don't forget to mark/label your clones).

 

[SmokeyMcChokey]

Plants won't show sex until maturity though. You can go 12/12 from seed. I've done it with freebies but it still usually takes 4 or 5 weeks from seed to show sex ime

 

[mickey oneil]

Just got those greenpoint seeds in (The Deputy—Bruce Banner#3. Probably my favorite strain of all time. About to put them in my 36x36x72” under my new timber 4VS fixture. I’ve only been growing for about 4 yrs now... started first grow w cfls... killed a few seedlings first two weeks lol. Quickly bought a Kind L450 and have been growing w that ever since. I’m really excited to see what these lights can do. Thanks for all your help w the seeds... I bought blue dream Acapulco gold and pineapple skunk

 

[Cold$moke]

Try OES they are stateside as well and have more variety

Just put my first green point order in
