Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds NOT Germinating

I linked through rollitup.org to Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds at Buy Marijuana Seeds and cannabis seeds from Holland - high quality marijuana seeds (cannabis seeds) I ordered 10 seeds of their Californian Skunk. The seeds arrived in a timely manner. Also included was an extra pack of 10 seeds which they advertised I would get. The extra pack just looks to be like 10 more Californian Skunk seeds because both packs were labeled with "CAL".

Anyway. I placed 4 seeds between paper towels and placed in a zip-lock bag and added R.O. water. I did this just like I have germinated seeds in the past. However now I am gonig on the 6th day and NONE, ZERO, ZIP have germinated. The seeds that I received looked alot greener than I was expecting but wasn't going to throw them away because they were green.

I went back to Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds website and wrote them an email through their site telling them of my situation and included my order number. Well... I have been waiting and they are not contacting me back. I am starting to feel like I just got ripped off.

I will try and start the germination on 6 more seeds now and see what happens. I don't want to slam the company just yet as I would like to get this resolved and give them a true chance to resolve it. I just know that until it is resolved I will NOT be ordering any more seeds from this company, nor would I recommend to anyone else to order from them!

I will update this thread so that people can see what happens to see if they want to order from this company or not. Good Luck to all... and hopefully to me too.

Peace

Ok, here's the update. Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds still will not respond to me or answer my emails. The Original 4 seeds never germinated. Started trying to germinate the last 6, currently on the 3rd day and no sprouts. Looks like I got ripped off. On the other hand I ordered 3 packs of seeds from Gypsy Nirvana and they arrived quick as shit! like 10 days from when I mailed off the money order. They look great and I am trying to germinate 4 seeds right now.

But stay away from Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds! Unless you just have extra money you want to give away... buy the way... my bank account is a little light so you can just give me the money instead.

I bought 10 Skunk/Thai off them which arrived in about a week. And every single one of them sprouted... as far as my limited plant biology knowledge goes, seeds need warmth, water, and oxygen - nothing else... Just keep complaining til they respond to your emails

i was wanting to go through them to get some seeds, but i live in florida and i have no idea where to get seeds from. i mean i dont know who will ship to the u.s?

Hey everyone yea i all so baught seeds off of them as well and i got super skunk and i started germinating them and theres a few that havent came up yet and its been like a week now or allmost a week so im starting to think i got ripped off to i used those little dirst things that pop up huge when u get them wet and it all so came with like a box to keep the humidity in and everything im all so wondering if you need to put light on them or should i keep them in the dark?

I recently ordered 3 types of seeds from them: Durbin Poison, Nigeria and Haze 19 x Skunk. I planted 10 seeds - 9 of them germinated. I don't use the paper towel method. I germinate them in a dixie cup with soil, then just place the dixie cup in a 1 gallon container with the same dirt and just let the roots grow right through the dixie cup. Seeds do need heat to germinate, so maybe it was your conditions that caused them not to germinate.

i ordered from that co also.bigxnl and thaixskunk plus 10 free only a few germed. no bigbud at all.i emailed them they said they would replace my order for 15eur.i think about $20.i guess its worth another try. has anyone ordered from marijuana-seeds.nl thinking about ordering package of 3 white strains.seems like good price.

Why not just order from me, i take paypal too, drop us a line if your interested.

nongreenthumb i am interested.i've grown a few times but only with bag seed. i bought a waterfarm now and i really want to get my hands on some good seeds

I can vouch for nongreenthumb, he sent me nirvana widow and they arived, and germinated.

Really... I want some northern lights x Big bud!

If people are having trouble with seeds germinating you can use gibberellic acid (GA-3) to force the germination of troublesome seeds. It can be difficult to use, needing only an amazingly dilute amount and it will always stretch your seedlings initially but if your in real need, us it. http://www.super-grow.biz/Products.jsp sells it dirt cheap, use only a few grains per liter of water and using something like liquid-karma or Nitrozime with it will also help. Gibberellic acid has been used to germinate seeds over 1000 years old from extinct species! It is THE Hormone that signals seed germination.
There have also been issues with X-RAY exposure to seeds causing them to fail before germination, I talked with a plant physiology professor about this and it was confirmed that yes, x-rays can damage the embryonic cells of a seed, it may not be an issue of poor seed quality.

Ok, Update. Out of the 6 seeds (2nd batch) I have 1 sprout on the 4th day. So... WooHoo! 1 out of 10. If you like this impressive record then make sure you order your seeds from Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds. I will update the overall progress over the next couple of days.

i use a heat pad that stays at 23 c ,an optimal temp for germination and i have had good results . usually only 1 or 2 dont germinate

Ok, Final Score.

Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds:
Germination: 1 out of 10
Customer Service: 0 out of 10


Gypsy Nirvana:
Germination: 4 out of 4 (EXACT SAME CONDITIONS)
Customer Service: ? out of 10 (never needed customer service)


The Gypsy Nirvana Red Hair Skunk seeds germinated 4 out of 4 by the 3rd day in exactly the same conditions. This is my experience. Figure for youself who you may want to order from or not to order from.

Peace

FWIW: 27 out of 30 sprouted just fine. Who knows? It's a long way from Amsterdam, most anything could have happened to yours. That IS a bummer.
Surprised that they have been unresponsive tho. Are you certain that your email isn't sending their replies into your spam folder???

Yep! I have 0 (zero) spam filtering on right now!

Well, the 1 that sprouted is comming along nicely. The four that sprouted from Gypsy Nirvana look great. So still pretty unhappy with Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds, but at least I will have some good plants thanks to Gypsy Nirvana.
