Alibongo keepin me happy

I have been ordering from alibongo. Just received another order today. Everything made it through customs.
Not Only did I get everything I ordered, they sent some cool freebies.
I paid for:
1 GH Jack Herer fem
1 Dinafem Amnesia fem
1 Big Buddha Blue Cheese fem
1 Big Buddha Tahoe OG fem
3 Dinafem Critical Kush fem
2 Cream of the Crop Purple Paralysis fem

they sent free:
2 Seedsman White Widow fem
3 Auto diesel
and 1 Dinafem Critical + fem

I got almost as many free as what I paid for.

Super excited to start Purple Paralysis this weekend. Have a good one everyone.

I have a Purple Paralysis in flower right now. Mine is in a less than prime spot in my flower room and still seems like it is going to be a HEAVY producer. Just a heads up, mine stretched at least 2X during the first couple weeks of flower. There's not a whole lot of distinct smell coming from her yet, but only on day 40 of what I think will be a 70+ days till chop, so still a ways to before I see what I really got. I also am flowering the big Buddha Blue Cheese. This plant has been super easy to grow, responds well to LST and topping. She isn't picky at all and already has cheesy undertones to her undeveloped buds at day 30ish right now so far. I had tried a single seed of the BB Tohoe OG as well, but it didn't germinate(all my other Big Buddhas were the quickest/healthiest to come up of the batch, though). I never draw any sort of big conclusions from a single seed, but maybe this all can help as a starting point. I thought I'd chime in since my last order was so similar to yours. Anyway, good growin!

EDIT: Here is my BB Blue Cheese at day 14 of flower:

Thanks Southerner.

I have grown Big Buddha Blue cheese. Fun, easy grow. I few mistakes along the way and I only yielded 33 grams. Its what I am smoking right now. Honestly my current favorite smoke. The smell is incredible. The Smell late in flower will dominate your grow room most likely. Good luck, you will love it.

This is my 1st attempt with Purple Paralysis.. Are you going to do anything in flower with temps or whatever to help ensure the buds look more purple?

As for the Tahoe, Im sure it was just one of those bad luck deals. Ive had great luck with every Big Buddha seed Ive grown. Blue Cheese, Cheese and Silver cheese all germ'd and started vegging really quick. Hopefully you give Tahoe another chance, I hear it is a phenomenal strain.

Since you are in flower with Purple Paralysis, any updates on how it goes in flower would be awesome. If you got the time. Thanks man

I started a Journal for Purple Paralysis: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/752102-cream-crop-purple-paralysis.html

My temps at night are 64, so when a plant has purple in the seed's genetics my room will usually bring it out. Right now I have a Snowdawg2, OG Kush, and Qleaner that are all showing various degrees of purples but nothing from the Purple Paralysis yet. But like I said it's early. From the looks of her, she will take the longest of any of the plants I have grown to date as I usually lean to indicas and indica-dominant hybrids. I'll keep an eye on your journal and post a pic there of how mine is doing eventually.

Yeah, I was more disappointed than angry about the Tahoe not germing. I mean its just a % game, it was the only seed to not germ so I didn't sweat it at all. But I have been on the lookout for clones ever since because I don't order seeds too often. I might have to roll the dice and order some, though. I never tried alibongo, I'll have to take a look.

Does Alibongo deliver to the USA? And is their shipping guaranteed? They sound brilliant, but unfortunately the guarantee against seizure is pretty much mandatory for americans because of our asinine government.

Yeah they do worldwide shipping, I've seen a few folk from your side get orders. Not sure of the seizure ratio though. Send them an email, I'm sure they will get back to you.

I order from the US and haven't had any seizures, so haven't had to even inquire about their policy for that.

Email them, and ask, the service is excellent

Don't know if they have a guarantee, never asked. They do ship to the USA. Never taken more than a week to get my beans. Only other bank that can match that is Herbie's which is also good, but the free shipping wins me over. I do believe that I have read something on their site that said shipping method was dependent on value of order or something like that so maybe they use better stealth on more valuable orders.

The initial prices on their web site include a VAT tax for Europe. After you create your account and log in, you will see the prices drop if you live somewhere else.
I've used the free shipping option every time I've ordered with no problems at all. They're a smaller company than many of the others out there. That's one of the reasons they do a great job.

Just placed order number 4. You're right, I never noticed, but the prices do drop after i sign in. Just gonna keep doing small orders from them and only use other banks for big orders when they have killer promos and I can justify the cost of shipping and the guarantee. With free shipping, I can keep the orders small and it won't break me.
Not knocking other banks though, I have had 100% make it through from everyone I have used, and my orders go through Chicago.
