Seedsman Seeds? How did they do for you?

Hi all, so I have been looking for a seed bank that has a good rep. I stocked up some seeds from True North Seed Bank, the seeds were from breeder Nirvana. I really wanted the Maui Waui seeds and they were here in Canada. They were delivered fast but I have had 3 unanswered email from them so it appears they don't really want my money. All I was asking from them was if a particular strain (Shiva Skunk) which they had on their site would be coming back into stock, after 3 email over 3 weeks I give up on them. I started with Crop King seeds but my last Auto ended up being photo period and the extended time before I had to force flower with a light flip really messed up my time line and plans. My Crop King seeds will now be for outdoor grows at cottage. Now I really wanted the Shiva Skunk seeds for my next grow to go along with my Maui Waui and found them at Seedsman. They are from SensiSeeds breeder. Although the site did give me some trouble with payment and strange emails after purchase the sale did go though. I am curious how people's luck has been with Seedsman and if anyone has grown seeds from breeders SensiSeeds or Nirvana seeds? Any input would be appreciated.

I used Seedsman. Took about 3.5 weeks to arrive. Packed stealthy, and 100% germ so far.

Can't speak for anyone else besides seedsman! They are the only ones I've bought through! I bought one a couple months before the pandemic and shut down and they took a about 3-4 weeks, and the ship discrete!
I ordered again during the pandemic and they took a little longer and I emailed them! Very nice and made sure my order was shipped the next day!
A lot of people will come on her talking shit saying they take forever, but if you don't mind the wait (they let you know beforehand) I think they're pretty good! I've had no problems.

I’ve had 100% germination with every seedsman seed I’ve popped. I soak seeds in water for 1 day and then they go to the paper towel plastic bag.

I can third the 100% germ rate! Besides my early fuck ups they all sprouted!
Let them sit in water for 18 hours, popped them straight into the rockwool cube and started my light!

Seedsman doesn't breed or grow anything. The seeds they have are from reputable breeders they're already working with. That's what they told me anyway. Ive never had one issue with their beans

I have used Seedsman with no issues.

I bought a bunch of archive face off packs from seedsman and only one of them came in a breeder pack and the rest were in generic baggies with a vial. I had absolutely awful germ rates with all of them, one of the worst seed purchases I have ever made. I will never use them again.

They sent my brother granddaddy purp seeds when he ordered grandpa larry instead. They tried to blame it on my brother saying they dont guarantee delivery. My bro had to argue that it was delivered but wrong fucking pack. They then said they would ship him the right stuff but not in breeder pack this time and no tracking.

Fuck seedsman. Their house gear is garbage too.

And for OP, I'd take Nirvana over sensi seeds. I have little respect for sensi. Over priced bulk seeds.

Thanks everyone for all your responses. I appreciate you all taking the time.

Many thanks. I am hoping the Sensiseeds work out as they are the only ones I could find with the Shiva Skunk strain I wanted. The Nirvana seeds are the Maui Waui and also just one of my favorites from way back. I can only grow 4 plants here so I will be doing 2 of the Shiva Skunk and 2 of the Maui Waui for my next grow. Just dealing with a bad seed from Crop King at present. It was supposed to be an Early Miss Auto but didn't flower and I didn't really do any training as I thought it was an auto. After 11 weeks in veg I got fed up and flipped the lights to 12/12 and she started budding but at this point is taking up my entire 5X5X7 tent, no room to put more plants in presently. Looking forward to her finishing so I can get my next 4 growing. At least she looks like she will put out well for me but time will tell.

If you have the means, I highly recommend Black Dog LEDs.

If you have the means, I highly recommend HLG Quantum Board fixtures. Or a diy led strip build.

Thanks, unfortunatly I priced out decent LED's and they are all out of my price range to get what I want. I ended up going with a Vivosun 1000 watt MH/HPS system with dimable ballast. So far so good, I will get to LED's later but find too many of the LED companies have been gouging people too badly for me to pull the trigger on them. I may do a DIY one day, it looks interesting.

Thanks, I hear great things about HLG, the only thing I found that was not good about them was the price.
