Yep. Cheap IMHO.
I started a whole pack 1st of Nov, for indoors, and all of them came up, but I had to scrub the grow as the partner turned out to be someone I don't want to mess with is all I will say. So I trashed them, and a bunch more.
I don't know how mold resistant, but Mr Nice SHIT/Sk#1 is also done in early Sept.
Also the Early Bird had really, really thick hulls, so I soaked mine in distilled water, and took them out of the water as they cracked. They were a bit slower to crack, but I soaked them No longer than 36 hours.
You also may ask JB when the Vashon KUSH, may be available again. Its the mother of Early Bird/M26.
If you don't know Early Bird/M26, it was in the original 1980s Super Sativa Seed Club catalogue.
I'm assuming, and pretty sure the people at Vashon have been breeding this on Vashon Island since the 80s. Same for the Vashon Kush.
