Love the variety, quality, and consistency of seedbanks' seeds. However I do have tons of bagseeds available around here. What's the likelihood they'll arrive?

If i do use bagseeds It's a hassle to know which are male and female. I'm about to have a 2x2x4 grow tent (Tiny I know) with 7500 lumen t5 fixture.

Plan A) Buy fem seeds online and scrog grow one at a time.

Plan B) Grow 6 plants using bag seeds and keep one female and transplant to final pot for scrog. If they are all female do a sea of green grow.

Plan C) Buy autoflowering fem seeds and grow 2 autoflowering plants at one time.
I'm thinking of ordering from ilovegrowingmarijuana.

Please dont order fom ILGM. The genetics are in fact great....if you ever recieve them. They have had record number of seizures starting around Nov 2014 to present & not just to the states. They had issues with the credit card company they were taking payments through & switched card companies in Dec-Jan 2015(which a lot of people never got orders/credits or refunds) . On top of that, their "stealth" was blown but they kept sending orders knowing this because they didnt want to turn down the huge amounts of $$$ coming in.
I've always had good luck and genetics from Nirvana,Herbies,Barneys farm. My most recent purchase was from BOG but they dont ship outside of the states. Best of luck to you with whoever you choose!

My vote is also Plan A... and use the bag seed as a backup/filler for training yourself for the scrog, especially if this is your first grow.. I like to use Haze.IO , http://cannabisseedsforsale.com/ lots to pick from and decent prices and stealth shipping... they advertise here and run some giveaways and discounts for RIU...

I vote plan A

the seed market is changing very fast

many news strains are hitting 25% thc

you don't to miss the bus

but keep the bagseeds as a back up

good luck

ps I shop Herbies
What about the autoflowering strains? How potent have they been as of late?

The autos are getting more potent, but not near photos yet... here is one listed at 18% I have considered... https://cannabisseedsforsale.com/product/fast-buds/green-crack/ there are other out there too, and the RIU threads for autos is a good place to surf to gather info.. https://www.rollitup.org/f/auto-flowering-strains.127/
Too tall. The website says 1.20 cm as a minimum height, but i think they really mean 120 cm. My space is going to be 48 inches tall. With the pot and the light it only leaves about 40 inches of growing space. Thinking about getting a kush variety or anything indica dominant.

Also, I heard when growing autoflowers you can start 12/12 from seed with 3000k T5's and use only bloom nutrients start to finish.
Since they only spend roughly 2 weeks in veg and some people hold off on nutrients early veg, the grow nutrients won't be needed. The autos seem to only need bloom nutrients (age old, dynagro, fox farm etc.) Maybe molasses.

I was always wondering why people say don't order from certain sites because they might get seized. Shouldn't international mail all work the same and not be affected by who its getting sent by? Never really looked into Herbies but FREE Super Stealth shipping sounds very promising. As well as the prices being very persuading.

Its when your shipping methods have been comprimised and yet you continue to ship the exact same way was my point, not so much who it was being shipped by. It was the practices of ILGM is why beans werent getting to their destinations. Customs was just doing their job....ILGM wasnt.

Being in the States, I now prefer to buy my seed stock only from the States. No more BS international shipping times,seizures, high costs etc. I'd suggest finding someone local to you that has seeds or grows and can gift you a clone. If you cant find a circle to get in then roll with bag seed and do it til you find a keeper. Then keep a momma around.

If your worried about getting it seized just pay for stealth shipping but honestly they are so sealed and smell is taken out the likely hood of them getting taken is pretty slim, if you pay the insurance they will replace them if they do, but even before it was legal here I never had a problem with them getting seized, I always use attitude seed bank.

The end goal of this grow was to make enough to get a second tent (a perpetual veg tent) for a mother plant to take clones off of.
