All the postall system has been heavily slowed down with the xmas holidays and the bad weather, I've had some orders that have taken longer also.

They are giving free LA woman fem seeds now with orders, I am waiting for some pick and mix now with my coffee mugs, I am unable to find any other site that allows single seed purchases AND delivers to USA, the ones I see out there that claim to deliver world wide and even display US dollars on the sites yet they wont deliver lol i find that hilarious. Anyway I should be getting my beans soon as they have already tracked to US postal so its left Royal mail already should be any day now. I have 1 Afghani kush, 2 purples and my free LA woman. seeds purchased on 2nd and dispatched on 4th, thats not a bad turn around if you ask me I will let you guys know when they arrive

I must be a one in a thousand people that have had problems with Attitude.. I (and one roommate)made two large orders on the same day(Feb6) and the first package arrived on Feb22(Los Angeles). It is now March 2, and although the tracking says delivered I still dont have the other package. Attitude says it can take 10 days from the day tracking says delivered...But it has been almost a month since the order/payment(ok February isn't a real "month", but still...)...I had it insured, so I hope that means something...
On the positive side I have planted 5 beans(from the first package) and they all popped..

As long as you got the guaranteed shipping your gonna eventually get your package, although shipping is kinda pricey its worth it to know your gonna get your package even if theres problems. So far Ive had 100% germination on multiple orders from various breeders, all broke soil and have looked really well, even the freebies from some breeders I dont really like to use, its been great. Bottom line for me is attitude, speedy, nirvana and even singleseed is very reliable, but attitude and speedy have great reviews, nirvana is reliable with some good strains and singleseedcentre has mostly positive reviews from what Ive heard about. Not to say theres not tons of different places to get good prices, some auctionsbays have good deals, but always gotta watch out for the shady sites and there is quite a few. Peace

LOL sounds like a lot of people need to learn to germinate. Im about 15/15 germ for attitude over the last year and a half. All kinds of different strains from different breeders, no problems at all. A lot of them were GHS which people complain about having germ problems.

I contacted Attitude(which I got). They told me that the seeds had been delivered(I still dont have them..after 35 days..although tracking shows they where delivered). I told them I would cancel payment on the credit card. They said, "but why when they where delivered?"..The insurance is crap...The first package(one of the 2 I ordered at the same time) has germinated 100%. So no problem there..Its just you would think they would be a little more concerned about a person not getting their product, and less about giving me attitude(her name was Rachel I think)...
Truth is I think my neighbor stole them. My new Ex-roommate has a big mouth, and they are friends. ..Stolen or not I paid for the insurance...

GHS has the colored seeds correct? I think the major problem with the colored seeds is that people dont soak them to take the coloring off first..I use a hot house, and have germination within 72-96 hours..I did learn about the soaking to get the colored coating off the hard way(The Church...it was free, but still my bad)

I actually didnt know that GHS recommended that you soak your seeds first, i just germed a church without soaking. I just throw my seeds straight into the soil these days.

My germ process has always been soak the seeds anywhere from 6-24hrs in a cup of good water, then place the seeds between two sets of very moist paper towels and place them inside a sealed ziplock bag. After the seeds are in the zip lock almost 90% of them crack within 48hrs maximum. Ive yet to have a seed that didnt crack and only a few that didnt break the surface, and even those were growing I had just planted them too deep I guess. Maybe Ive just been lucky, were talkin about 50-60seeds atleast from various places that have all cracked, even little tiny seeds that look like crap come out fine, basicly as long as their not premature Ive never experienced any problems(knockonwood). Not to say that there arent seeds out there that no matter what you do they wont crack, its just Ihavent come across one yet, but Ive only started using some

Wish everyone good luck with their germing, the soaking part to me is very important in speeding up the process. Peace

i had 2 orders this year, 300$ in seeds and 2 plants to show for it. I didnt have any problems last year. I won't try them again for at least another year. If these bag seeds are as good as the guy says they are I may just clone them and not have to buy seeds for awhile.

Definitely a problem with attitude out of thirty seeds I got 4 plants did everything rite and seeds were from dutch passion greenhouse dinafem and g13labs so it's not the breeders even my first grow which was years ago I had a better germ rate from ten seeds I won't be using them again maybe it's the way they store the seeds or they are old shit steer clear peeps il be buying my seeds on foot from now on !!

Ordered Pineapple expess, pure power, purple lady and lemon skunk and only 1 lemon skunk sprouted. Some never germed others cracked and then nothin. Needless to say that was my last time i flush my money down the drain. I use another bank and always have atleast a 75% success. BTW i soakem til they sink and then papertowl.Also use superthrive for stuborn ones and still nothin.I couldve upgraded to a good hydro system with that money instead. oh well live and learn.

Which other seedbank do you work for? If the seedbank's store the beans proper then it's probably the breeder's fault. I don't blame the seedbank's for bad phenotypes in certain strains. I've order 10 packs of G13labs Pineapple Express over the past couple years(50 beans) from The tude'. 46 of those were germ./grown/harvested with 0 problems other than some mediocre phenotypes. Out of those 46 plants I've kept 5 potent+flavorful phenotypes but narrowed it down to the best 1 now. You could technically order a single pack or bean and get a winning phenotype but that's pure luck. 46/50 isn't bad, I've had much worse from Barney's Farm.

Interesting, i've had 100% success rate with my germination and except for the first order I made that was from Nirvana, I've only ordered since from Attitude and have never had a bean not pop. I don't do the papertowel method or anything like that though. I simply add a 1 inch layer of vermiculite on top of my watered soil, then heavily spray down my vermiculite with warm water, plant my bean 3/4 of an inch in, cover and spray with a bit more warm water. Cover pot in saran wrap and put it in a dark room temp'd place. about 5 days later I always have a sprout..
And yes I've received an attitude order in the last 2 months and so far all those have sprouted as well

I've always just placed them in the correct position in damp rapid rooters under the dome.
Never had much trouble germ. anything > but I don't handle them in their most fragile state(taproot sprout).

It's nice to see the beans germ in a paper towel but they can be easily damaged from the transplant.
