I've had ridiculous low germination rates from my last 3 orders from the tude...I've been buying seeds from them since Joey weed went down and have never had any problems until now. Anyone else experiencing the same problems? Any suggestions for other reliable seedbanks?

what breeders are you buying from? it's not like the attitude is making the beans them self, all they do is sell what breeders give them.. and i'd think the bigger the bank, the bigger the turn over, therefore, the fresher the beans should be imvho..
unless of course you're ordering some wonky breeder that no one buys from..

mostly mainstream breeders (Dinefem, Dutch Passion, Greenhouse seeds...) last order just 3 out of 10 Dinefem White widow autos sprouted, and an even more dismal 2 out of 10 Greenhouse Jack Herer feminized.

I doubt very much that it has anything to do with the Attitude bank or any other bank for that matter, unless you got damaged goods or punky looking seeds. Even if you got seeds that are light in color the Breeder should not sell them. The bad germ rates come from the Breeder. Some are simply not mature enough but rushed from plant to market before they are fully developed. I bought 5 Candy Kush auto's from Attitude that were from ''AUTO SEED'' zip .got no pops out of the 5 .I wrote to both companies and autoseeds hooked up with the tude to provide me with a replacement,which I got a few weeks back, 2 germed out of those 5, for a grand total of 2 plants out of 10 seeds. pretty damn poor....''IT'S NOT GOOD TO FOOL WITH MOTHER NATURE'' I believe the problem lies in the workings of seed manipulation, whether it is feminized or this strain or that strain. F 3,4,5.6 etc.all plays a part in seeds that ain't worth a damn. Some of the best Breeders don't care for feminized seeds TGA Subcool, Alpine and a host of others, for good reason.And Autos are a big part now , and even more room for mistakes. Obviously not all breeders are adept on breeding auto's. If they were they would have a better germ rate than 2 out of 10.

Don't you peeps get it ? Even though he is asking for other seed banks you are not helping him by missing the picture yourself. IT IS NOT THE SEED BANK THAT ARE GIVING HIM BAD GERM RATES IT'S THE FOLKS WHO ARE''BREEDING THE SEEDS.

So you got two batches of seeds from the same breeder and they both went wrong? I am surprised to hear that they even gave a shit enough in the first place to respond let alone being good enough to send you replacements, that is unheard on in my books. That is either some pretty shitty luck or your system needs looking at.

I had that same problem with my dinafem white widows......this year I went back with seeds that I got from BCBD several years back and made a cross of God Bud & Refferman Grapefruit
That initial investment has been some of my most well spent money yet

My system is fine .I BRED MY OWN SEEDS LAST GROW ,PLANTED 28 SEEDS 27 POPPED ALL WITHIN 7 DAYS. MOST IN 3-4 DAYS. AND NO PAMPERING THEM EITHER,NO PRE-MADDONA'S HERE. AND I HAVE SUCCESFULLY WRITTEN TO 3 SEED BREEDERS AND GOT REPLACEMENTS.IT IS ALL ABOUT HOW YOU GO ABOUT IT...... A JERK ...GETS JERKY RESULTS. nuff said.

Wow what breeders were you able to get replacements from, i will be sure to get some of their gear next cycle. Even with the best system and most experience sometimes shit just fails and it would be good to know you can get replacements.

BARNEY'S, ALPINE SEEDS AND AUTO SEEDS, one seed usually gets replaced from the bank ,while the packs, came from the Breeders themselves. Also some breeders don't ship to your country or none at all .That is why they have the distributor's {BANKS} THE BANKS WHICH ASSISTED ME WERE THE ATTITUDE AND CASTLE SEEDS

have gotten all of mines from the tude and never had a problem.
even the freebies popped, thats 90+ seeds. did have a freebie of ch9 climax that popped the first set of leaves and then just stopped growing so never buying anything from them.

seems to me that either your local post office are handling them carelessly or the problem is your system like stated above

do you have any idea what you are talking about? some breeders dont feminized not because the seeds dont germ but because of hermi issues.i never had problems with fems or autos. and have grown f8s and f9s with no problems. stop misinforming and spreading myths

As a matter of fact I do. I didn't say Breeders don't feminize seeds because of germ rates. what I said is manipulation, has made the seeds thru the years tuned to todays growing methods,in effect. Read... Breeding and Genetics by Robert Connell Clarke
