Just an update. My seeds from SOS shipped and they've already made it through Chicago ISC. My last attitude order, placed on August 29, is still sitting in Chicago, lol. Im not planning on seeing those...ever. Props to EM & SOS.

Hey guys,
I placed my first order with SOS about 6 days ago. My order still shows processing, and have not received a sagepay confirmation. I did, however, receive an order number from SOS. Is this normal?
Mine took 5 or 6 days. my order took 12 from order to arrival. Once it arrived in my country it was in my letterbox in 22 hours

Nah I'm a Saffa bro LOL. Warming up here too ;) Also not the biggest fan except I can't help getting into the big international matches, always a great excuse for a party at a mate's place, some laughs, some reefer, too much food and a whole bunch of shouting at the telly.

Shipment to US went fine. I chose the stealth option (but not guaranteed). My order was packed very stealthy. Shipped within 2 days. Arrived in 7-10 days.

I haven't germinated yet. First grow. I might not hold any germ/gender problems against SoS. :)

If you don't mind divulging, did you go through California Customs or elsewhere? Tried to pm you but it wasn't an option. I'm wondering whether my pm has worked when available! lol I sent one to EM a couple days ago and haven't heard back. I know they're half staffed and crazy busy, so i'm not complaining.

Los Angeles. But, it was so stealthy Customs would have had to destroy the item to find the seeds. They'd have to do that with *everything* because they'd never know which shipment had 20 or so seeds. I don't think any port of entry could do better than LA did. :)

Not sure why you couldn't PM me. I looked at my profile but didn't see an option to allow or disallow PMs.

FYI: I chose 8 seeds to germinate. After 24 hours in distilled water (with SuperThrive at a strength of 1 drop per half gallon), 5 opened and showed white root. One was opening, and I could see the embryo, no white root yet. And, 2 hadn't opened. I put those on the moist paper towel and will see if they eventually germinate. (I read they shouldn't be submerged in water longer than 24 hours. I'll let the moist paper towel work on it for awhile. I also gave those two a bit of help by pricking the seam of the shell with a pin. I read somewhere it helps to do that with slow openers. I'm new, willing to try it now that I got 6 definite openers.).

You guys scare me with all of this bean soaking and pricking...... A healthy bean should germ in dirt kept moist and warm... I have a 99% rate like that and I've popped a lot of strains.. soaking and papertoweling is just asking for damage to the delicate baby taproot...imo

Placed my first SoS order yesterday.. 10fem pineapple express and a bunch of freebies. Excited!

Just a quick update. My order was placed on Sep 13th, received in US 21st. The stealth is actually stealth, enough said about that. Thanks EM, SoS has a new loyal customer.

I've never had damage from paper towel method, just use tweazers and poke a hole in the dirt with the seed sitting on top with taproot in the soil- they pop up faster that way
 
If your seeds sprout rapidly, you could use a paper towel. But some seeds take a bit longer, a wash cloth that you rinse out or change is the preferred method.
