Buying Seeds

I've been reading lots of posts here and slowly putting together my 3' x 3' x 5' grow box. It’s finally complete and I'm ready to buy some seeds, what are some good sites to purchase seeds from. I've got the natural apprehensions about buying online but I figured you guys would have the best options. Also what lighting should I use in this box? I was thinking a 400W MH for Veg and 400W HPS for flowering. Any input you guys can give me would be awesome.

ive had great dealing with
Seed Boutique
they are cheap and fast, just like my women. lol oh and you get a freeby pack of seeds with every order.
and as for the lights i think those will do just fine as long as you have a way to get the heat out.
good luck and keep us posted

I was thinking of ordering from Marijuana Seeds (cannabis Seeds) High Quality Low Prices. I'm interested in trying that "THC Bomb" strain.

i would think twice or ask some1 that has used that site before.
i bought pure power plant seeds from S.B.(from nirvana), and got south african durbaon poison X skunk#1 (from high quality) as my freeby. i got 10 out 10 to germ on the PPP's and only 4 outa 12 of the DPxS1. i may have just got a bad batch or something but thats my 2 cents.

just use caution when ordering, as far as lights go try this place
High Tech Garden Supply
you can order the conversion bulb or you can get it both together in one like here
High Tech Garden Supply
it already comes with the conversion bulb. just plug it in and let it go. I would recomend using some cfl's for like the first 2 weeks then cook them under th MH

Thanks for the great input. I think my first attempt I'll order some PPP based on your results. I don't want my first attempt to be too hard on my wallet. Those prices are great for my first try.
What method did you use to germ those seeds?

Thanks AllMeanNoPotato, I think I'll order the combination lamp as well. I've got a budget for lighting and fans of $300 so I think I can splurge a little on great lighting.

I've used Seed Boutique a few times with no problems.
I love the freebies.
The Nirvana strains I have tried are well worth the $!

Do they ship to the U.S. with no issues? Sorry for all the dumb questions, like I said before.. I'm brand new to this.

Yes, I am in States.
I use web site to order, then follow up with mailing of international money order.....easy as 1-2-3

Thanks a TON. You answered my next question without me asking. I didn't know if I used regular Money orders or International money orders
That blunt you're smoking must make you telepathic...

How long does it take to get your seeds?

took me about a week once they got my 20.00 bill. ill tell how i germed, i started by putting them in a cup of water for 12 hours. next i put them in a wet paper towle, and placed them in a baggy to keep them from drying. once they popped open and got about 1/8" to 1/4" i put them in 2"x2" presoaked rockwool cubes. i put the cubes in a plastic tub with 1/2" of water in the bottom. they stayed in the tub untill they sprouted out of the rockwool and where about 2" tall. after that they went into my DWC. and thats where they are now. ive used only 8, 4' 40watt floros so far, and they are growing great. all about 12" tall and way bushy.i just took a few clones from each so once they have had enough time to get over the stress they will go into my flowering room with 2, 1000watt HPS.
ive takein a ton-o-pics so if you do try this strain let me know if there is anything i can help out with. and if you have a cam and dont mind take a few pics aswell... (to contrast and compair)
anywhoo good luck and keep us posted

I go down to the shop and buy clones nowadays. Gota love California.
