I’ve been using Hemp Depot for over 15 years have always had great success. Only downside is they’re located in Canada but have updated they’re payment system to accepting Walmart money orders. Shipping time is about 21-28 days. I’ve personally met Brad and customer service is awesome. They handle many of your well known breeders. I’ve averaged 98% feminized success rate and very seldom have had issues with germination. Cost is fairly competitive so I give them a big thumbs up.

Had a bad experience with him 10 or 12 years ago, and never went back. It’s too bad, because I wanted to try some Joey weed strains back then.

I've always thought Hemp Depot might use a freezer for seed storage. Some of their Beanho stuff was pretty old, but still had reasonable germination.

Going back many years they always did a good job, just don't use them so much anymore as there's been an explosion of domestic seed suppliers.

Not a ton of options up here but never had an issue, shopping from within Canada. Could be more competitive with prices on some breeders if not more/new breeders, but been a trusted source the times I've tried

Am thinking about ordering the AK47 F2. These are from pre2000 genetics when Serious Seeds was doing their best work. Ive ordered from Hemp Depot years ago and always got my orders. Just wondering if anyones grown the Joey Weed AK47 F2s? If its anything like the original from the 90s, its some seriously potent stuff.
Anyone?

Brad is a legend! Had a couple of orders with him, first few came through no probs but a big one never arrived which was in the middle of COVID and I know he doesn't do resends. So I sent an email and he very kindly said he would do my whole order again for half price. So I sent off some more cash and after 5 mths thought it had disappeared too. Brad emails me the other day and said it finally arrived and he had sent out the package with extras for waiting so long. He is a very genuine dude and I have no issues recommending him to others!

I got everything I ordered but was very disappointed w germ rates of his strains (BeanHoarder). I never have issues but with BeanHoarder gear, many had very low germ rates. Some lines not so bad… but the Sensi Star X Black Widow, Hawaiian/AK x Black widow, blockhead F5, freeze x god bud… not great at all. Some less than 50%
He said he’d send me more but I never got any. Asked again a year or two later and he took it as if I was trying to scam him. I mean, in some ways i get that… but all my seeds are kept in freezer bags w rice, in another freezer bag, and then those are in Tupperware that have rice and are stored in the dehumidifier/crisper drawer in my cold fridge.
Sucks bc many things I really was excited about. It’s hard to find a lot of those 90s-00s lines these days that are quality. I’ve had better germ rates from seedbay with much older seeds in the past couple years (old spice of life, reservoir, grindhouse, chimera, cultivators choice, and even Magus & Loompa (though magus warlock x Zamal-a and loompa warlock were like 60%, but they’re in paper envelopes instead of plastic bags or vials)

My first seed purchases were from hemp depot around 2005. I got Dr atomic and joey weed and all arrived stealth and germed great and grew great. Was very happy with them but haven't ordered there since until today. I just placed an order today for seeds that are out of stock everywhere else. Hopefully this latest order makes it through customs ok and germs decent. I get the feeling that they aren't used as frequently as before because there seems to be older stock available that isn't available anywhere else and hopefully they've been stored well. My guess is their payment methods are hindering sales now since it's still only cash or money order through mail. Good customer service though as brad responds to emails pretty quickly. I'll update again when either my order arrives or a customs stealing my shit letter arrives.

I picked up an order of Beanhoarder recently because the strains and prices are interesting. It will be closer to the spring before I try to pop them but it took 4 days from order time to seeds at my door and a complete pack of extras showing up too. I live in the same city as BH but it was very good service so far.

I got one of the Old Timer Haze crosses and a Red Congolese x. Williams Wonder x too. Interesting selection for sure.

That stock of beanhoarders has to be old, some of that stuff has been there for years without ever going out of stock to restock.

HD use to be the place to go before all these other places started popping up.

I'll find out how it goes in the spring but I got seeds even if they are old. They have potential. To get these genetics will be impossible very soon.

I hope the lucky13 ladies are being kind Playk328. Mine were very kind this year with many recipients wondering at the size of buds. From comments people thought I was using magic fertilizer. 10 points to the bulls*** machine since I didn't use a lot of nutes, special lights, pyramid tents, etc.

Good genetics is huge in what you grow.

Yeah some of those genetic may be hard pressed to find.

Lucky13's this year are absolute monsters, they are too damn big "if that makes sense" I am going to get another full update this weekend, I have been so damn busy this year with the outside fruits/veggie garden and now I am in the middle of a full flower room construction "the wife gave me the green light to run indoors again"!

All I got to say.. If you have a chance to get that Roadkill OG F1 "before its worked' you may want to jump on that.. This feking strain is something else.

I fucked up by not cloning her.. I already got a replacement pack in motion, Im not missing out on getting that strain again, next time she will be getting cloned.
