I think all of us as grows in all states just need toThere are breeders in the US who sell both Reg & Fem seeds. Useful, CSI, and Mephisto are just a couple of the high quality breeders that currently make fem seeds that I can name off the top of my head. Keep in mind that not every pollen chucker who creates fem seeds is reputable and even fem seeds from overseas seed banks tend to get mixed reviews.
Some breeders like Bodhi, for example, will likely never make fem seeds. Bodhi has already said as much in his Pot Cast interview. It takes away from the universal masculine/feminine balance--and prevents others from really digging in and exploring the genetic gateways found in every pack. (Definitely a paraphrase).
Fem seeds are great for ensuring you can stay within legally sanctioned plant counts--but with companies like Farmer Freeman who provide genetic testing services at like 7 days from seed, even this argument starts to fall through. Frankly with the consumer culture in the US, I don't know if we'll ever see personal growing take off like it has in other countries. Even states like IL & MA are passing laws that don't allow growing at home without a medical card. My expectation is that states passing legislation to allow marijuana will work to ensure it's only available from licensed (taxed) dispensaries, while states that amend their state constitution will continue to allow home cultivation. While this may drive some demand for fem seeds, you still need to have breeders who want to make genetics in stable fem form--which to my understanding isn't always easy or reliable.
First off, i have never ordered from GLG, howeveranyone else think great lakes genetics shipping is super slow now? I've ordered in the past and got my seeds 2 or 3 days after they have received payment. my most recent order i placed on feb,4 they received payment on the 11th sent a email saying shipping label made feb 18 no updates in usps and still no seeds after more than a week of shipping label being made.
I heard bad dawg is having some issues with his well atm, along with the valentine's day sale influx I think things are a bit behind. Just something I saw on another thread.anyone else think great lakes genetics shipping is super slow now?

Thats the kind of info im here for. I dont wanna spend 100 bucks on the dankest seeds never to germinate.I would agree with karma, bodhi, strayfox, useful, Mass medical, Thunder fudge and prob a few more.
FYI - those karma strains have been on the site for years and I don’t think they’ve ever been restocked. It’s probably some pretty old stock.
To be clear, I think all the other stock is recent. Who knows, DBJ could be storing them in a fridge while still in breeders packs and they're fine.Thats the kind of info im here for. I dont wanna spend 100 bucks on the dankest seeds never to germinate.
You are right. Im sure those guys are taking pretty damn good care of their gear.To be clear, I think all the other stock is recent. Who knows, DBJ could be storing them in a fridge while still in breeders packs and they're fine.
most of it is still viable. i had some old motarebel beans i got from glg that had a 95% germination rate. i took an emery board to the shells also.You are right. Im sure those guys are taking pretty damn good care of their gear.
if you wont pick them up i will........eventuallyThats the kind of info im here for. I dont wanna spend 100 bucks on the dankest seeds never to germinate.
You're asking this in the wrong thread dude. There's a whole thread on Bodhi gear. This question gets asked and answered at least 3 times/month there.What’s everybody top 3 strains to pick from Bodhi what would be your favorites or what would you Recommend?
How many are you sitting on now?if you wont pick them up i will........eventually
none yet, but ive been eyeing them. karma has a pretty good rep, just like dbj. when i picked up the old motarebel beans i was forewarned by dbj, & i accepted the challenge knowingly.How many are you sitting on now?
Karma is the shit, and even if his gentics werent world class he seems like a nice enough guy from everything i have heard. But if there was a bad batch that got to a bank it would be nice to know about it instead of buying them and trying to return them. I imagine a good breeder would take all his questionable stock back. The less that made it out the better.none yet, but ive been eyeing them. karma has a pretty good rep, just like dbj. when i picked up the old motarebel beans i was forewarned by dbj, & i accepted the challenge knowingly.
Nothing to sweat about. But you are right! You could spend a month reading bodhi stuff on at least one thread. I heard some good stuff about swamp donkey.What’s everybody top 3 strains to pick from Bodhi what would be your favorites or what would you

If you just want to grow what everyone else is growing/likes, GLG might not be the right seed bank for you.
I have ordered from Great Lakes several times as well as many others and yes they are a bit slow even slower after a sale. Bad Dawg is a very cool and upright dude you needn't worry, your order will arrive. I know I get impatient too when waiting for GLG shipments to come, but just think of those awesome bad dawg freebies. They are a great reward for a bit of a wait.anyone else think great lakes genetics shipping is super slow now?
