i just found this msg on royal mail site about my order:

"
Recorded Signed For™ items are only tracked after the item has been delivered. Depending on whether the item was sent first or second class, this may be a few days after posting. Please try again later.
Information on your item is not yet available online. "

i dont understand. u can only track an item once its delivered???

anyway, 12 hours after my email, should i receive my post today?

Recorded Delivery items are only tracked after they've been delivered. However, Special Delivery items can be tracked all the way. The problem with Special Delivery, is that prices start at almost £5 just for a normal letter, so it's not really worth the extra IMO.

But your item will arrive today - sorry again for the delay!

kind of.... it'd be a 60 mile drive to get there,lol!

thats ok, still quicker than most seed companys.

Well you won't get a company car

what bout health insurance? lol

what about free beans?

do u really have part time jobs goin though? i bet it must be abit weird trying to get employees?

Well there's 3 of us at the minute, including my colleague's other half (part time). But we are getting to the point of needing extra pairs of hands!

What we really need is technical people though. People that are good on computers that can do websites, SEO, that kinda thing. So if you know anyone, feel free to send a CV over!

actually, i might do. my friend is very in depth with technical crap. i might see if hes up for it.

he doesnt smoke pot or anything so there will be no need to screw u guys over,lol.

so u lookin for someone just to tweak ur website and order forms etc?

That sort of thing. Mainly to produce new sites. We have lots of things we want to do, but the technical stuff is my domain and there just aren't enough hours in the day!

We only need someone on an ad-hoc basis, and they could work from home. An understanding of the industry would be an advantage, but not essential.

I'm not 100% sure what/who we're looking for, but seeing an example or 2 may help us with that!

new sites? if u could give me a breakdown of what u are looking to do then rather myself or my friend could do it. im quite up to date with things but my friend goes really in depth.

if its just 2 design new logos/pages/flash or something then i can do that. i used to do it ages ago in high school. i did take a class in college as well.

anyways, just let every1 know, im sure someone can help u out.

ok. i think i recieved my seeds,.... royal mail left a note sayin i have to collect it in 24 hours?! wtf? says it requires a signature. i didnt have this last time?

is this normal?

i cant pick my seeds up till 2morro after work now

also dave, i know someone who can do ur site stuff... PM me with full details and an email so i can get my m8 to send u his CV an stuff.

cheers

ive had to sign for every package from pick and mix seeds

aye same here

We send everything via Recorded Delivery now, which means you (or someone) needs to be in to sign for it. We had an increasing number of parcels "not arriving" so we decided to change our postage methods.

You have 2 weeks to pick the item up (I think) but usually can't do it the same day, which is why it says 24hrs. Sorry if this is a pain for you, if in future you'd prefer regular post, let us know when you order!

I'll aim to get a brief over to you via PM in the next day or two. Gimme a shout if I forget!

its not a problem bcoz i need 2 get some things sorted b4 i germ them anyway. i can go pick it up after i finish 2morro. probably wont be germinating till thurs night.

when i ordered 1 seed last time it was just posted

cheers 4 the info anyway.

just went an picked my seeds up. they even come in a blackpool tin ! ha, brilliant.

Dave, the super silver haze seed i bought 1st time round looked different to the one i have just purchased. also the 3 ak47 seeds i bought all look abit different.....

they'll always look different, no 2 seeds are identical. GERMINATE THOSE SUCKAS!

I jus planted a big bang, alaskan ice and 1 of my 2 jack herers, now my veg room is fulll again. Jus rememberd i have a birthday at the end of jan lol, i hope i get enough to last me lol

ah ok cool. well im just going to check online for a place that sells soil and perlite near my work. if i can find somewhere close so i can go get it on my dinner then i will germinate these babies.

also im in abit of a shit situation... i wanted these strains to be done for xmas but theres only 12 weeks till xmas.... that means i wont be able to veg... looks like im gonna have to do 12/12 from seed with a 600w.

also, i was gonna look into cloning but i think cloning will slow the process down

Seeds do look different, I can assure you it's nothing suspect!

If you 12/12 early, you'll end up with smaller plants and lower yield, that's the biggest downside. Could give them a week on full first to give them a head start?

whats so special about christmas? im hoping to harvest mine sometime in january.
