Sadly that's the truth.

fasho..kinda tempted to order right now but im already 20seeds deep and the most i can grow is 4plants indoor (3x3x7 tent) and 6 outdoor..so those seeds stay good for a while right?? how do YOU store your seeds?? im just keeping the ones i got in the tin that they came in and royal packaging and just stuck it in my sock drawer lol

I store mine in a locked box from Wal Fart with 4 BIG ass packs of dessicants plus lots of smaller packs spread throughout.
Then the box goes inside a FREEZER Zip Lock and that goes inside another freezer Zip Lock and then into the refridge.
The Gorilla Grape pollen I just used was 1.5 yrs old and my plants are seeded seeing how some Pistils have already changed color signifying they are pregnant now.
So my method will hold seeds indefinitely, but can/should expect germ rates to decline after a couple of years (5 - 10) regardless, unless you safely freeze them.

See the large dessicant bag with yellow writing in the lower left corner ?
I have 4 of those plus the small bags in my seed box.
The bag next to it with purple writing is the same size, and you can also see one in the box.
They feel like bean bags ! lmao

The pollen I just used with the date it was collected : Sept 12, 2009
The dash is just to indentify pack #1 and #2.

how long is the longest you ever heard of someone storing a seed and still getting it to germinate and all that?? cuz it could be 2-3years before i use all these seeds..

To be honest, 20 to 30 years on more than a few occasions from OG growers I know.
A DARK, COOL, MOIST-FREE and AIR-TIGHT place in the key !!

on the seedbay do they send to uk an is it safe??

They are based in the UK, my friend ! lol
So you'd get your shit QUICK-FAST !!!

are you really going to order seedbay? i've only been hearing complaints about them, very slow shipping and ppl dont get orders. i was looking into riot seeds, i wanted the black strawberry. i have blue dream right now which is fantastic and im looking for something similar to that. strawberry cough is one of my favorites so it only makes sense for me to stick in the -berry area.

Like any other business, they will not have 100% customer satisfaction.
I.E. - Attitude and any other seed bank or dispensary.
BUT, they have WAY more positive than negative reviews.
Not to mention ppl ALWAYS forget they are making an illegal purchase and sometimes Royal Mail and the U.S. PO confiscate !!

I have to get this off my chest.
I believe in sharing/spreading seeds and not hoarding them like some ppl do.
But with the limited quantity let alone the rarity of my Outlaw gear and the fact that his shit is always limited releases of 2 or 3 a year at $80 per 5 seeds when it is available, be prepared to give up more than you would want to or like to if seeking a trade-off.
I can not and will not do a "seed-for-seed" trade no matter what is offered unless it shares the same "value", and I'm not talking personal value but honest "Supply and Demand".
If you are not familiar with economics and the concept of Supply and Demand, it means that the more rare and limited something is, the more it cost a member of society to own/possess/purchase it.
For example :
Ford Formula F1 and Saleen's
Bentley's
Gemballa Porsche
959 Porsche
Colored diamonds
A U.S. $1,000 dollar bill (yes they were made at one point and are still legal tender)
Mercedes Gulf Wing
The Hope Diamond
Picasso, Michaelangelo, Rembrant, or Van Gogh paintings

I don't mind trading, but both sides have to feel they got a fair deal.
I don't put personal value on these seeds, but I do look at what they sell/sold for versus the selling value of what is being offered and their availability !
So with all that being said, be prepared to give up 2 - 3 seeds for every 1 of mine !!!
If this offends anyone, then you're putting personal before business and should avoid hitting me up.

Now back to the regular program ! lol

 

[Mindmelted]

Truly a impressive collection my friend...

 

[Dizzle Frost]

thats a pretty sweet lockbox!

 

[Flo Grow]

Truly a impressive collection my friend...

Thanks Mind !
The better the seeds, the deeper they go in the box !! lmao

thats a pretty sweet lockbox!

For $11, you too can have one ! lol
They have a smaller 3x5 box, which fits completely inside my larger box.

 

[racerboy71]

hey flo, are you the one who said they got that box from wallie world, walmart, or was that someone else?? or should i just come out and ask where you got the box from instead, lol, i guess that would simply be easier..
and also, where do you get the larger amounts of dissident from?? i have a ton of the smaller packs, but i'd like to pick up a larger sized package of it... thanks ahead of time..

 

[Doobieus]

Yeah, at Wal Mart where they have the office supplies and shit, usually on a bottom shelf.
Same location in every store I've been to.
I believe the larger box I have is 10x6 or 10x7 for $10.97, and the smaller is 3x5 for $9.97.
Just make sure to open the box and have 2 keys in there.
They all come with 2 keys.

 

[racerboy71]

What!!!!!!!!!

this has been my phrase for the month mind.. good things come to those who wait, and so far, its panned out pretty well for those i've told it to..

damn, lol.. i didn't know you had a crystal ball, lol, as that was going to be my next question, what size is the box, but you beat me to it..

do you find that you can fit pretty much the whole collection in the one box flo, or do you have several of them??

 

[Flo Grow]

My whole collection fitted in the 3x5 with very little room left, so I upgraded to the larger box and now have almost twice as much space again.
So now I have to pack this one too !! lmao
