Dman surge, they are still selling those. You should write Nirvana and let them know whats up. One get some replacement seeds, and let them know they got another problem on their hands. Lets stop other growers from getting "stuck" like us.
 
damn thats messed up :evil: glad i saw this, was just looking at their site not too long ago and thought they had some good prices and almost bought something glad i didn't thanks guys and sorry for ur losses i've used marijuana-seeds.nl and have had no problems with them only been a couple of times tho but ordered fem and reg seeds and they came pretty fast and have had a very good germ rate but on my first grow so.

That's probably why I haven't heard from them. I bought 5 fem-auto's & only 2 sprouted.

Maybe I get some nice surprise in the mail soon?

Anyone else gotten any response from them?

Did you use 12/12 to get them to flower? How big are they? How big will they get? Did you save any time by waiting five weeks to flower? Think you will get 1/8 the yield like everyone else? Right now I'd say your a dude with monster size plants, that didnt save anytime, that will yield about 1/8 a normal plant would, although your plant is normal size. No space, no time saved, and just a drop of bud. Still feel lucky?

Wow, 11 plants, just think of the yield if you would have grown the normal NL. They yield about 4 oz per plant. That would have been 44 oz. of this crop. With what you got, you might get 4.5 oz for whole crop. Lets see, at 300$ an ounce, that cost you about 12000$ bucks. Lucky you! Lucky you! Your SOOO lucky!!!

flowering at day forty? a normal auto will flower in less than half that time...

i wouldn't feel lucky, i would just feel like it was a bit of a waste, again, you could have just gotten normal NL and had an amazing 11 plant crop

Autoflowering strains

IMPORTANT NOTICE ON OUT OF STOCK STRAINS:

Time to cut the BS and inform you on what's really going on. There's a lot of nonsense doing the rounds about our decision to put four of our auto-flowering strains out of stock, so here's the truth, straight from the source.

Since introducing our four new auto-strains, reactions were mostly positive. We would like to stress that many of our customers have successfully grown these strains to their full satisfaction, as photos on many online cannabis communities will prove. There was one small batch of faulty Blue Mystic autos sent out, but we replaced seeds for the few customers that were involved. Lately, however, we have been receiving more and more complaints about a failure to flower in these four strains. This is why we have decided to temporarily stop selling them. We are currently doing some major quality testing to ascertain which batch or batches caused these issues. Since a lot of people still reported successful grows, and since testing is done regularly, we do know that not all batches were affected.

For all our customers who've ordered auto-flowerers from us, here's what you should do: First, don't panic! Rumour-mongers most likely have never even ordered from us, and are often not properly informed. Your seeds may very well turn out to have nothing wrong with them whatsoever.

Begin by making very sure that any problems you are experiencing with these strains are not due to grower mistakes! Common mistakes include:

- using nutrients intended for use in the vegetative period. If you're using these, the plant will not get the necessary nutrients to start producing flowers. Solution: switch to flowering nutrients immediately.
- using a 24/0 light cycle. The fact that auto-flowerers are not photo period dependent, like regular cannabis plants are, does not mean that being bathed in light 24/7 is right for them. Many growers make the mistake of thinking plants need to be exposed to light as much as possible to grow bigger, when the dark period is actually when plants use that built-up light energy to develop roots and leaves. (obviously, using a dark period also means far lower electricity bills and heat output). Solution: switch to an 18/6 or even 16/8 light cycle.
- using too high temperatures. Tying in with the issue above - if plants get too hot, flowering may be affected. Slightly lowering the temperatures simulates the ending of the growing season, thus stimulating flowering. Solution: carefully lower those temperatures.


The above should fix issues experienced with seeds from all good batches. If you believe you have received a bad batch, and you've tried the above solutions and still have problems, please contact us through the Help Desk and we will sort things out. If, on the other hand, you've been driven to panic over what someone wrote on a forum, we would urge you to verify that your growing conditions are correct with the help of the list above.

In the meantime, as mentioned above, we will focus on batch testing to find out which batches were affected, and on quality control to make sure this doesn't happen again. As a safety measure, all batches of these autoflowering strains will remain set to "out of stock" until we can be sure that the batches we have are flowering properly. Please note that our Short Rider strain is definitely not experiencing quality issues, and is therefore stil available for sale. So if you are interested in buying an auto-flowering strain, we advise you to order Short Rider for now. Thank you for reading, and our apologies to all customers who were affected.

The post above is bullshit. First, these plants grow HUGE. They never mention that. Second, they have grown fucked up since the start. Thats a fucking lie. Third, DONT BUY THE SHORT RIDER. It is still for sale, but at least three ppl have posted here that the short is not working either. Fourth, it wanst the Blue Mystic AF they recalled two months ago, that was their normal seeds. It does not appear that they know what the fuck they are selling, how it was grown, or what fuck thier seeds. Right now they want to trade you fucked up AF for another fucked up AF. Way to go!!!!!!!!!!

These people dont know shit from apple butter.

I agree 150%, that was my first response in my head as well. They are trying to bullshit their way out of their fuck up, do you really think we can trust them? I've seen so many people with so many diff autos from nirvana on here, it aint just a few people who are having this problem and it aint just 4 strains that are crap. It looks like nirvana is showing their true colors. Everyone make sure to leave a comment in the seedbank review of them, we dont want new growers to have to go through their bs. I strongly believe rollitup should take them down as sponsors as well. nothing like that will ever happen though, rollitup seems to be all about making the owners more money lately.

You have to put them in 12/12 or they wont flower. I would suggest to anyone, if you have this strain and want to see it to the end, put them in 12/12 from the start and get it over with asap. Best I can give anyone growing these.

Thanks Crypnotic, I've been wondering why my auto feminized blue mystics plants have not flowered yet? Also, why are they growing so big, I ordered this strain because it was suppose to grow small. I contacted the help desk at Nirvana because this was the replacement seeds I got after the 1st bad batch of auto feminized blue mystics turned out to have more males that female. Now this batch of blue mystics are growing way too big for an auto, and have not flowered yet and mine has been 4 weeks flowering and no bud sites. I plan to change the lights to 12/12 tomorrow to see what happens.

It will be harvested at 12 weeks, my friend has 10 NL autos that are four weeks ahead of mine in 2 gal pots (like mine). Theyre under 600watt HPS (like mine) and he is estimating 2oz+ harvesting at 12 weeks..

Mine are about 2ft tall average and I also expect 2oz+, not my first rodeo. Im lucky because I wanted large yielding autos and thats what I got. They will easily double the yield of any one of my 10 Easy Ryders that they are growing right next to..

And they have been on 20/4 since seed, recently backed them down to 18/6 at 5 weeks because the electric bill is too high..

They have grown into beautiful sativa dominant plants, like I said 2ft average at 5 weeks. No irregular growth, very fast vegetation,thin and sharp leaves, 11 leaflets. Best looking plant I've ever grown.

Now I would not buy these seeds again or anything, I prefer photoperiod plants, but you have no right to go ignorantly raving about how shitty a seed bank is and name calling.

Grow up :joint:
