Attitude really screwed me over

There are quite a few issue being raised here. Yes attitude should take some responsibility for the products they sell, but only as far as being able to connect you to the original breeder who has the ultimate responsibility for the quality of the seeds they produce. Being based in the UK Attitude will not deal with you in any way shape or form if you mention that you are doing anything that they consider illegal. If you are growing in a legal state with a permit, make sure that you state that first! The UK legislation means that they will be prosecuted and shut down if they are selling seeds to people that they know are acting illegally and seeing as Attitude turns over well in excess of £2 Million GBP a year they are not going to chance their business for the sake of a $100 order.
As for the seeds you ordered - you would do better to go straight to the breeder and register your complaint with them. They probably will just tell you to take it up with Attitude but some may want to raise their PR a little and send you some replacements.
This WILL NOT be the case with Greenhouse though. They have a very powerful marketing machine that does an excellent job of promoting very poor genetics. Take for example The Church. 2 years ago they knew that this strain was defective and unstable yet they release the entire crop on to the market with no concern for the customer. Attitude and many of the other big seed banks had to de-list that particular strain as they got so many complaints.
Peace to you all!

Also with Seedsman, I tried contacting them about some bad seeds and they just ignored my e-mails.

I placed two different orders with Attitude. I received the seeds plus a few "freebies". When I went to germinate, only 6 rooted out of 9. Out of those two acted like auto-flowers and flowered immediately. Out of the four remaining, which should have been all feminized, one went male. So, I'm left with 3. One was supposed to be a purple which there is no way it is, it's very tall and slender like a full sativa. I am never going with ATTITUDE again!

This is my experience with them. I have no affiliation with any seed bank (wish I did).

I blame Attitude because they are supposed to stand behind their products. Whether you want to believe it or not Attitude does make a major profit off of selling seeds. Also, as a grower, I really take a hit if even just one plant doesn't make it. This cost me thousands of lost revenues so that's why I am personally pissed off at this crap. Like I stated, I am no longer going with seeds but instead driving the 100 miles round trip just to get clones that I know won't be runts, males, or DOA.

Why does everyone use Attitude anyway. They're the biggest, yes but the best......NO. Its personal preference i totally agree but there's miles better seed banks out there. From personal experience Rhinoseeds always deliver exactly what I'm looking for plus there customer service is kick ass!

goofy analogy....have you ever taken Tylenol? Well In the 80's it was killing people...But I bet they are still one of the leading companies for over the counter pain relief...I said they were killing people!....but the Tylenol name is trusted to this day....its been said over and over...it's the breeders...not the brokers...somebody close this thread already

Dec, I have the right to be mad, I'm out a ton for believing in their crap seeds. Have you ever jumped out a plane, pulled the rip cord, and neither shoot opened? Would you just say, "gee, I'll have to go back and hope they can pack the shoots right next time"? No. Same thing here. The outdoor growing season is as good as OVER. I was screwed. This will not happen to me AGAIN. Attitude had their chance selling seeds, out of the kindness of their hearts to hear you tell it, at over $100 for 9. Please, if you love being a contrarian (and so many weirdos get their rocks off doing this on boards) do it on your own dime.

9 times out of 10, it either improper germination (too damp, or too dry) or you got seeds from a bad breeder, not the seed-bank. Seed-banks just ensure that places like the USA can receive seeds since breeders dont normally ship to the USA. pretty much, if you bought a bad breed of seeds, its not The attitudes fault, its more than likely the breeders (that's saying you actually germinated them properly, since i had issues about the same thing)
