Last year. The seeds looked immature to me - small and white so I was not super surprised when they werent viable. I explained to him that for someone international, it took a lot of effort to get the US money order etc and then to be sent non viable seeds was disappointing. He insisted that he personally checked the seeds and they were large and black and started talking about damping off and how to germ seeds like I was some sort of noob.

So yeah, I could not recommend either Hemp Depot or Beanhoarder unfortunately but of course ymmv and glad to hear yours were good!

Obviously different moms but from the same batch, the only reason I mentioned that c99 cross. If they're pale, they're pale - no reason to argue with the customer about it.

Are you in Australia? When did you order the seeds? If they had to travel through an Australian summer or by boat from Canada I could definitely see them getting cooked in a metal shipping container.

Yeah that is possible. If they ever get their shit together and enter the 21st century with their ordering, I will give them the benefit of the doubt and have another crack.

I'm not sure what their postal system is like in Canada but in the US it operates at a loss to make commerce viable. I think it's very expensive for them to mail things, let alone express international.

I do think that Brad is an older guy based on how long he's been operating and his handwriting, we all get passed by technology at some point as far as the mail order aspect goes. At the same time it might be the most convenient/secure way for him and customers.

Far be it for me to tell someone how to run their business but with Canada legal now, I would imagine that things should be easier for people to have bank accounts etc. Unless they dont wanna pay their taxes of course, but thats another story...

I don't expect to sift through plants from seeds I paid for to find something decent. Maybe I should go to a Dead show and see if any bags of seeded bud to show up.

I’m in for the Chem if you find them! I see what you’re doing there. BTW Space Monkey is legit! As well as 95% of the Bodhi strains I’ve grown! All fire! Mr. B knows how to pick the papa’s!

Here are the two phenotypes I am keeping from a Pebble Pusher tester pack hunt.

Pebble Pusher #5 phenotype, she smells and tastes like a laundry detergent pod smells. Floral, sour, earthy with a hint of sweet, creaminess:

Pebble Pusher #4 -- she smells of lime zest, gas and earthy funk:

Side by side, no flash:

Never had a issue with hemp depot. He always treated me fair.
However I don't buy beanhoarders seeds. I see those seeds as in house genetics like canuk seeds at true north, or Quebec seeds at Montreal seeds or Toronto seeds which are all owned buy the same people.If I want straight out crosses of strains ill just make my own like I do.

I have looked at gps there is a strain or 2 that I would buy...just don't like using my cc to buy seeds from a company not in my country and I don't like mailing payments. That's just me though.

Nice sugar on that plant.

I have three Wake of the Dragon from Strayfox running at the moment .My WoD #2 is a blood bleeder. Hoping it is a male to knock up my other two for f2's and also chucking with a few other crosses- Butch Cassidy (cookie wreck x stardawg), Sundance Kid (sunset sherbert x stardawg), Tomahawak (GG x Stardawg), Chickasaw Cooler (Ecto Cooler x stardawg), Cackleberry (Cherry Diesel x Stardawg) from Greenpoint Seeds and Tight Dojo from Bigworm genetics and a local Wedding Cake 24% cut from a local recreational company.

She's a nice one for sure. I did not treat her great either. Clone run is coming up so we'll get to see what she is really capable of.

I see the two new strains are listed but not stocked.

Is there still going to be early release drops for diamond members similar to the city slicker and cake n Chem drops?

I'm pretty sure I remember reading that these would be a recurring thing on new drops for the upper tier members.

So Gu is STILL planning on selling those shit seeds? I guess when people have grown tired of your stuff and the reverse auctions continue to drop lower and lower, you gotta do something to maintain interest.

Also, since when was WiFi sativa dominant? And when did anyone spend $17k on MAC seeds? I’ve been seeing them go on auctions for ~$400 regularly.

Bounty hunter re-veg for cloning purposes.

Not impressed with the mac1. Super slow vegger and just a strange plant. Maybe it will put out better seeds

You got ahold of those already? They just appeared on the site today, I believe.
Any chance you nabbed bison breath? That one sounds intriguing.

So you've grown Butch Cassidy? What was it like?

Maybe run em with my pack of gorilla wreck. Hmm... :roll:
