UK vs USA Seedbanks

My past order from a Netherlands seedbanks got lost. They reshipped and I got a customs letter stating that the items were removed and destroyed. That sucked. My last order from Attitude didn't germinate. So I lost about $200 bucks. Just discovered us seedbanks and waiting on Old Time Chem4 by mosca seeds from SPSB. They are only taking cash or blank money orders. I'm glad some options opened up. Ive read lots of EU packages are being intercepted in the port of Entry for us Southern states. Chicago IL to be specific. I have only had one package from the attitude intercepted and it was poor stealth and I got a green tape covered package. Think I'll try these in country breeders bc the stuff is top shelf from what I've read. Peace.

Sounds like you have had some bad luck with seedbanks in the past. And US seedbanks are starting to take off. Soon it will be a common thing to order from a US seedbank.

Just got my Old Time Chem4 today. Fast shipping and good service. I won't be ordering from overseas anymore with the kind of dank genetics here in the States. I'm going to put 5 in water tonight to get these going. Its great to have options like this. Going to try SeedsHereNow for my next order. They've got a lot of great looking strains.

Gorilla seedbank all day....4 business days to door, cheap stealth shipping...THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE, sherry and Gavin go far out of there way for people ....look up there review on here, very decent selection...one of the cheaper ones I've researched and they have the guarantee to always ship till you get....

hey Bean Busy, what is the link to the thred posting pix of seed packaging? just took pix, cant find the page... please help

At first I was skeptic about ordering their merchandise online, but believe me, Seed City team means buisness. Huge offer, easy ordering, various discounts, light speed delivery and extra friendly agents that answer to your e-mails in 2 hours max. Did I forget something? Yeah, their agents are top!

Seed City knows how to spoil their customers, so no need to look any further.

Whats up folks? Could anyone tell me a reliable US seedbank that I can order from and pay using a pre paid credit card or money order? I appreciate any answers...

Hey guys so here is my (recent) list of seedbanks:
Nature's Green Remedies - good speed, good prices, US/no green tape, but kinda small selection. Still like them though.

Seed Vault of CA - been going downhill. US, huge Bodhi selection are plusses. Sending cash without knowing you are going to get the seeds you want instead of subsitutions sucks though, and zero customer service.

Firestax - they are finally back! the only overseas seedbank I am willing to deal with. And while they are based in the UK, their new bank is through Hong Kong, and a lot of orders ship from US which is a big plus. Also very good people to work with, I have always gotten responses and help. They just got a new bank set up that knows they are a cannabis business and does not care, so no shutdowns or credit card issues. Huge selection - check the link to the forum to find out when all the drops are coming Firestax.com

GreatLakesGenetics - US, have not ordered here yet. I have contacted the owner to set up an account and he was courteous and easy to work with. Good prices, not the biggest selection. Some companies you cannot get anywhere else. Mostly looking here to replace SVoC. Will edit after I complete an order.

I have used a lot of seedbanks, the ones above were my top choices until SVoC went downhill. NGR and Firestax have both been 100% good experiences and I recommend them. GLG I plan to try based on experiences/recommendations of others - seems like a solid place.

Na not yet, I got one as a freebie from the tude. The tudes description seems decent. But like any purple strain it's a hit and miss. But to better your odds drop the temps in the last four weeks of flower and flush with ice water for the last week of flower every day. This turns most green strains purple so it should turn a ment to be purple strain nice an purple. It's got a 98% success rate in my book.

The only one I know that's got a 90% success of turning purple at standard temps is melvanetics buckeye purple. You can get it from sour patch seeds and firestax.

Yeah man there are a couple great Seedbank in the U.S and the best part is NO MORE CUSTOMS INTERFERENCE!!!!! The Dank Team is in Michigan I've ordered from them multiple times seeds always arrive within a week great breeders great strains. BOG Seeds in California they are an amazing group of people customer service second to none strains unbelievable most resinous and potent strains I've ever grown. Check The Dank Team out online and BOG on INSTAGRAM for strains and ordering details.....just a recommendation if anyone suffers from chronic pain or sleep issues I would definitely check out Lifesaver or Sour Lifesaver from BOG. You can order BOG strains from The Dank Team but checking BOG out on INSTAGRAM you can get them alot cheaper cause your getting them from the breeders yourself, I really can't say enough about the guys at BOG They helped me out beyond what any Seedbank would do for a customer. Hope this helps.

Went ahead and checked The dank teams site......very nice selection indeed. Thanks for the heads up Johnny

From the header on this thread Euro seed companies tend to Carry mostly Fem seeds where as North american seed banks tend to carry better percentage of Reg beans personally have never purchased seeds can pretty much get any strain in clone form and with one call might take a week or 2 but there clones .
As for seeds being part of the collective Never had to pay for any strain i want just a phone call away
