Just wondering what seedbanks are legit and ship to us. Only used attitude ever but with what I've seen lately I won't be going that route. Any and all advice appreciated.
I just received an order from both Herbies and Sea Of Seeds. I ordered from both the same day.
My shipments both went through NY customs and made it through without a problem.
I opted for the "super stealth" guaranteed options on both orders. Both packages were just dropped in my mailbox like regular mail, no need to sign or pick up at post office.
Herbies experience:
Super fast shipping. After ordering online, it only took about 6-7 days to arrive.
Good stealth. Better than Attitude but not as good as Sea Of Seeds.
Seeds healthy and in great condition. So far %100 have sprouted.
Discreet and nice packaging.
Sea Of Seeds experience:
Mediocre shipping time. It seems like emails and order shipments are delayed 4-5 days at Sea Of Seeds. My package shipped 4 - 5 days after payment.
The slow shipping time can perhaps be attributed to their stealth. Each package would take quite a bit longer to prepare compared to Herbies.
Excellent stealth:
The other seed banks should have the level of stealth Sea Of Seeds does, it's very stealthy.
Seeds look healthy and in great condition, haven't attempted to sprouted any yet.
Best packaging I've seen from a seed bank.
If I can recall the final prices with shipping were comparable at both seed banks, not a big difference in price.
For fast orders I would use Herbies.
For better stealth I would use Sea Of Seeds. I will probably use Sea Of Seeds again (second to Herbies) but I'm concerned with the time delays they have. If you have an issue it appears that it would take a long time to get it sorted out. Waiting days to a week for email responses then another week to reship would not be something I would want to endure.
