CropKingSeeds.com? Anyone try them?

I bought my 1st pack of CropKing seeds. I had chosen IceWreck, and what an excellent choice I'd made. I love everything about it. Very Indica dominant, grows great both indoors and out, yields great, smells premo.
I've also got my hands on 1 blackberry kush from a friend, in the featured pic, best plant I've ever started from seed. This is 6 weeks old. Please let me know what you think, I'm not a seasoned grower but have had my far share of trial and error. Im an outdoor gardener, still getting a feel for the indoor, tent, temp control ect.
I greatly appreciate anyones advice. T.y.

I just germed 2 feminized purple kush from them.inn going for good things. My last grow, well still flowering, was grapefruit haze from Marc Emery at cchq. I like that i ordered 5 from Crop King and got 7. I would've ordered from Cannabis Culture again but didn't like the stains in stock

i just did a run north of the border and brought back 5pks of: purple kush; crown royale; white cookies and azura haze. all fem seeds. :weed: if anyone else has experience with these strains please feel free to share:lol:
i have previously grown their drawf low flyer auto/fem and loved it. these new beans are advertised as at least twice as potent and much better yielding so i'm really looking foward to trying these new( to me) strains bongsmilie
i have some master kush and some white rhino from nirvana seed bank in the tent right now so it will be a few weeks before i can introduce any of the new stuff. due to space considerations i have to grow in a small 2ftx4ftx5ft tent so i usually dont have more than 3 or 4 plants in flower at any given time.

A few months back, I ordered 200 seeds from them for $6/seed. Decent price and the package came in 6 days but not 1 free seed. They garuntee an 80% germination rate and that is exactly what germinated. I ended up with 160 viable seeds, so the $6 seeds turned into $7.50. Not too bad but not happy with the germination rate. Possibly bad genetics.

Yeah i had to pop a third seed because the first term opened and then died immediately. The third seed is doing fine, so as long as the rest are a success i guess I'm satisfied that my two free ones died. However, i doubt I'll be that lucky.

I can't believe that they gave you 2 free seeds and you only bought 5. I buy 200 and get 0 lol...

That is very poor customer service. I agree with you. Personally i think you should reward the wholesale buyer, not the small individual that definitely will not be back. That is unless the PK is as good as advertised, but if that's the case I'll just clone her and still won't buy from them again

Just to be clear, I'm not saying that you don't deserve free seeds because you only bought 5. I think anyone that orders seeds should get free seeds to compensate for any possible duds.

Well, I decided to contact CKS about the germ rate over the phone today. They were very apologetic and with no hassle or hesitation, offered to send 30 more seeds, with expedited shipping free of charge! He said that they care about their customers satisfaction. I'm very pleased that they did that for me and would recommend them for business afterall.

Dude that's awesome. And to be fair to businesses, people like me don't give them enough of a chance. You did the right thing, meanwhile i just sit here and bitch. The world needs more people like you to help businesses succeed with constructive feedback, not whispers in the shadows

Yes it is quite amazing, it's also quite amazing that every member of this thread has just joined recently and has warm and fuzzy things to say about crop king.

I'm not sure if you're implying a conspiracy or that we're ignorant but either way I do not have warm and fuzzy things to say about crop king, I'm actually very displeased so far.

What are you getting at? If you have nothing useful to say then I suggest you not bother to even post anything. These forums are FULL of junk cluttering posts like yours. No wonder it takes hours to go through some threads to find good info

I'm only suggesting that seed banks and inexperienced pollen chuckers should get a paid sponsorship here at RIU if they wanna sell here.

I'm not selling anything or endorsing anything just trying to provide info on an experience as a customer. The issue becomes that living in some places you have a limited access to banks and breeders or that is to say ones that will even agree to ship to you so you're left trying ones that claim they will ship to you discreetly whether they're good breeders, just people selling seeds as good strains when they're just bag seed, or whatever crop king is. Quite frankly i try to research the hell out of anywhere i buy them from and info on crop king was nowhere to be found, so i rolled the dice, apparently throwing snake eyes Personally i had been using VSB but their current stock was disappointing.

Look, I just checked out some grow journals of their Purple Kush which is supposed to be indica dominant, and the plants are 10 foot sativa looking plants all gangly and strandy.

I wish i had seen that before i ordered. After i ordered i started to look deeper and realized they were more than likely not an actual breeder/good bank. I guess anytime somebody claims to be selling a crazy generic popular named strain claiming 27% thc you should be suspect. I'm sure it'll be nowhere near that shit but at least in the very near future I'll have my Grapefruit Haze to burn on. Come on trichs, let's turn just a few anyway

Wow WTF is up with VSB? Not one femmed strain available, whats up with that. Anywhooo...... Probably not much different from the masses but I typically grow whats recommended on these and other forums so these threads are very helpful IMO.
