The attitude ripped me for 200 dollars worth of seeds.. This actually happened to me before and they replaced them after arguing with them for a month of emails.. Im not sure how they store their seeds or how long they keep them but they don't germinate. I made one 100 dollar order. Nothing germinated. Like an idiot I ordered the same order again.. Now I been doing this for almost 12 yrs. Our tap water is already at 5.8. And I filter it to get the chloramine out. Put them between wet paper towels on top of the fridge where its warm between two plates. Its how I have been doing it for years. it always works.. They will hit you back with "seeds are sold for "souvenir" purposes only". Which is compete bullshit. Im in a med mar legal state with a card. I told them this.. Anyways Buyer beware..

this isn't attitudes fault, but the breeders. Blame the right people.

I bought 5 China Yunnan, got 7. Only one germinated on me and it's a runt. Instead of complaining to attitude, where I know they will play the stupid "souvenirs" card if you mention germination, I went directly to the breeder. In a cordial email, i explained the issue. Without any hesitation, they offered to send me replacements of my choosing, even giving me more expensive beans than I originally ordered and 11 beans instead of the original 5.

This isn't attitudes fault, they are a distributor that is all. Blame the breeder. I suggest being a little less worked up and more polite. The whole more bees with honey thing...

because you live in a state that gives you a medical card doesn`t change the laws of everyplace in the world, that`s thinking with a very small minds eye view. if you have been doing this for 12yrs then you should be more familiar with the business of how the whole seed game works. your hate needs to be directed at the breeder not the middleman. ranting and crying gets very little done, mommy and daddy may had responded to temper tantrums but most others in the outside world could care less. just remember karma is a bitch!

Ya, I've had similar issues with a couple packs from somewhat reputable breeders (seedsman, HSO) and after a carefully worded mail to the tude and the breeders I had free replacements sent out. If my memory serves me correctly the breeders sent them directly.

You really do come off as quite immature to trash the seedbank though. As a couple have pointed out, Attitude is simple a middleman. Be sure to take extra care to word your correspondence properly. Some times the difference between a replacement and jack-diddley can be something as trivial as a word or two.


Best of luck though..

Like I stated, I didn't get all pissy when I had a problem. Old stock happens and it isn't the banks fault. Shit, when it happened I even posted it in my thread and said I'd just send Ace and email.

Couldn't believe how fast they got to me, and how kind they were about the situation. Plus they went above and beyond what they had to do. Didn't get the China Yunnan, which I'm a tad sad for, but I'll reorder in the future directly from them based on how fast and courteous they were.

Any breeder worth a damn should understand shit happens and a polite email should get you what you want. Being a dick like this post portrays won't win you any sympathy. Shit, with that attitude I'd be more inclined to tell you to pound sand and fuck off. Would you act this way if it were any other product?

I find these threads about attitude pretty hilarious, it usually starts with one of the usual garbages of "my seeds didn't germ it is attitudes fault." or "I didn't get my seeds those guys fucking scammed me" or "I got the green tape fuck attitude"

lol thanks for the laughs of the morning, but you didn't need capslock on sticky to make a thread about your horrible germing practices. I know that a lot of people use the moist towel method but in my personal experience it is a lot easier to use some rapid rooters, jiffy things, or just throw it in the dirt. I have had over a 95% germ streak and you might just be doin it wrong lil buddy.

Yep. I just closed my account with them. My last order was like that. Only Got a 10% GERM RATE ON 3 TYPES OF SEEDS. mAYBE THEY ARE BEING RADIATED at customs.

And maybe you just fucked up germinating them or they were old seeds

Oh and did you make a point of wearing your tin foil hat when you said that? If not they will know by your brain waves you said it and come after you lmfao

Whether you doubt it or not its possible, everyone makes the odd mistake or has a bit of forgetfulness, its human nature, well unless your trying to say you are perfect and without flaw?

An no, im not always such a smart donkey. The word you are actually looking for is spelt "arse", oh wait...but you dont make mistakes do you?

Yeah, I just popped 15 out of 15 from the 'tude...If you're having germination problems, that's the breeder, not the Attitude. All the seeds I've gotten from the attitude have germinated for the most part...First order back in 2011, most recent order was a few weeks ago.

The attitude isn't responsible for germination rates, that's totally on the breeder, or you.
