i love seeing folks starting these threads about how joe blows seed bank is a rip-off, LOL! i've been doing biz with gypsy for years, back when it was seeds direct and never had a problem. there will always be some people who don't get their order for some reason. this guys post is so full of shit, it's unbelievable! they're very good about keeping you posted on your order's progress. they do take credit cards, debit cards etc. i even remember calling them once, and they were very helpful. the shipping was quick and stealthy. i know this sounds like a commercial for them, but i just thought i'd set the record straight. i'd rather buy from the u.k. than the dam, that's for sure.

i generally go by my own experiences, not others. i've seen these same kind of threads countless times. last time it was dr. chronic. all i can tell you is i've never had any problems, except now, you only get 5 freebies instead of 10 with your order.

Ive only ordered from seedsdirect, Gypsy Nirvana(yes i know seedsdirect became GN but they were better when they were seedsdirect) and DrChronic-So far Ive only placed 3 seperate orders with Drchronic-So far they fkn kick GN's ass in promptness of shipment and customer service.The guy responds to all of my emails within a day, and my orders ship within two days-Until he screws me like GN did, Im sold on Drchronic-who knows-that could change-as of now im completely stoked with his service

btw those freebies are garbage and not even worth germinating-toss them-I think some people are under the misconception that they throw in a free pack of one of their featured strains-Not the case-they give you low quality seeds that have terrible germ rates-theres a reason theyre free

SB has always been reliable for me but they ship pretty slow and customer service is pretty much nonexistant.
The Mazar-I-Sharif freebie seeds I got are pretty damn viable so far. I've germ'd two and both showed a tap root in under 18 hours and popped above the soil in 48 hours. They continue to grow that fast from there on too. The leaves get bigger than your hand on only the third node. I'm 11 days into flowering and no sign of sex just yet. It's got a really hashy smell though as expected.
The previous freebies SB was giving away were useless though. They were thai x skunk or something like that and only one germ'd but never popped above soil.

A couple of them will usually make it but ive never actually grown them out(not about to replace one of my clones with a freebie plant in my flowering room)this particular freebie pack isnt doing too well.the first pics are Serious Chronic, two days old, second pic is the Mazar Shariff-All of the Chronics are at 100% germ. rate- Mazars-0% as of today

I seen a couple people over at IC have the MIS going and some took 2 weeks to break the soil. They seem to be hit or miss. I have seen some nice ones, but have seen alot of bad ones. They are just landrace seeds, so I guess it is to be expected to find a few gems and alot of trash in them. Wish they were still giving out Sam's strains as freebies.
I know this is my first post, I ordered from these guys 2 years ago, no problems, now I ordered again, and received part of my order damaged w/ a seed missing, and am "back ordered" on the other part of my order, Jack Herer which was like $140.00! So, they have my money on that, and by the looks of it some other peoples, as well. No response to countless emails. This was Dec 4th I order, and they received my M.O. on Dec 12th... so they should at least respond! Anyway, I guess I should feel lucky to have gotten any seeds at all! Maybe they will come through, I hope I still have my lease in place, I ordered to a work address, but I may not be leasing that office for much longer. I just hope a new tenant doesn't get it with my name on it! Oh, and I did get the Mazar I Shariff freebies, like a few other posters, based on the comments I'm not too excited about that!
I just wish they would respond to an email, and say what is up, like "We're out till March on that, kindly pick something else..." that would be the professional thing to do.
