I just harvested 3 Chocolate Rains. They are awesome! Totally frosty. Just a word of caution, you better triple bag those buds otherwise everyone in a 100 ft radius will know what's in you pocket! Totally stinky, haha.

I thought I was hallucinating. I noticed it too. I was going to order those but went with the Hericules. But now I seen Extrema back. Funny maybe it was some sort of site glitch? I keep seeing things added to my cart but when I go to the cart they're gone. Strange.

I don't know if you know this, but you get a 10% discount by typing in 420 in the coupon area with attitude... also It's going to take alot longer if you are paying by cash. It usually take about 4 weeks before I get my order. However, if I by credit card.. I get the order in about 2 weeks... I'm in the west coast area...

you're so long winded. i was on vacation and i purposely skipped by this thread because, i knew your rebuttal was gonna be way over the top. i don't care about attitude nor do i hate them. i don't see them as relevant is all. i know better. the only places that have what i'm looking for in seed form is sannie's and seedboutique. the dj short thing was hard to miss. it was all over many boards. it's a big underground we live in. so, i was there from the beginning to the end. you insist on me trying to discredit them when breeders already have but, who did they get the real dj shorts seeds from is the real question. dj short doesn't give them seed so, why would anyone in their right mind buy seeds from a place that has been caught selling fakes. you do it once who's to say you won't do it again. i won't even get into dr.greenthumb. the only site i see people speak of attitude is on here. what you should be asking yourself is who the hell are they getting their seeds from now because, it sure as hell ain't from the breeder. there's nothing to debate. sannie always straightens any issue attitude does not. there's no comparison on any level to someone with common sense.
If you followed the actual events rather that parrot what others who did not know what they were talking about, and only sticking with one thing said by DJ Shorts at the time, you would not have said the above.
Attitude purchased beans from a wholesaler who ripped off Attitude by selling them fake DJ Shorts beans in counterfeit DJ Shorts breeder packs. When it was found out Attitude made it right. They got real DJ Shorts beans, as they now have, and they took care of the customers who ended up with the fakes that Attitude got when they were ripped off.
You attempt to make it sound as if Attitude intentionally sold fake DJ Short beans, that they were behind it when instead they were a victim of a dishonest wholesaler and then bit the financial bullet for their customers.
Either you do not read what I write or else you have severely low skills of reading comprehension or short term memory problems. REPEATEDLY I have clearly stated that Sannie's gear is quality gear. REPEATEDLY I have said that. How in the wide, wide world of sports did you miss that?
In differing variations I have said the following, which was C&P'd from message number 25; "My point was not at all about Sannie's being low quality, because that is NOT the case. It is only one of an extremely limited selection versus an extremely vast selection."
You are evidently just another Sannie's cheerleader and an Attitude hater. No one else could totally ignore where I have clearly stated that Sannie's gear is quality and that my only problem with his line is how it is extremely limited and how it does not offer one single 100% sativa, which is what I love the most. so it offers me nothing of what I love the most.
No, you are just another puppy who does not know the facts, who does not know the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth and who wants and needs to believe the very opposite.
I have told the complete version here far too many times to type it all out again but the way THC levels were tested in the 60's and the 70's was later changed and that is what resulted in much higher levels of THC than what was claimed to exist in the past. In the past they did not only test glandular trichome heads and in the past every single bit of matter and element within a trichome head was factored into the equation and that watered down the THC percentage. Later, around the time of true professional breeders, as in breeding businesses, started to pop up the way THC levels were tested was changed, it was altered, it was performed in a different manner where ONLY cannabinods from glandular trichome heads were gathered and tested. At that point THC became only a percentage of cannabinoids found in glandular trichome heads rather than a percentage of everything found within any type of trichome.
Here is an example of one breeder who advertises one of it's strains where the THC level was tested using the old testing method and the new testing method. Be sure to notice the BIG difference in the percentage of THC in the exact same strain from the exact same breeder.
World of Seeds Bank - Afgan Kush
Strain: Afgan Kush
Breeder: World of Seeds

THC Level: 21.6% measured upon the rest of cannabinoids. 7.4% measured upon the rest of organic substances belonging to buds like: amino-acids, sugars, terpenoids, vegetal hormones, and cannabinoids (determined by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry)
Did you happen to notice how the THC level DROPPED from 21.6% all the way down to a single digit number, that being 7.4%?
Puppies like you fail to know that the way THC levels were tested was changed and the change of testing procedure way the MAIN reason why it suddenly seemed as if super-potent strains had been created.
What puppies like you also fail to know is that there still exists two different modern testing procedures that result in massively different THC levels being found and that 'The Dutch Masters' of course only use the procedure that shows a higher percentage, since only that would make them appear to be creating strains that are far more potent than ever before. There is what is called a calculated active cannabinoid test and a relative ratio cannabinoid test. Below are the results from an independent test on Green House Seeds Super Lemon Haze using both testing procedures. Be sure to pay close attention to the MASSIVE difference in the percentage of THC.
Calculated Active Cannabinoids
CBD:
0.63%
CBN:
0.27%
THC:
23.98%
CBC:

THCV:
0%
Relative Ratio Cannabinoids

THCV:

Did you by chance notice how a THC level of 23.98% DROPPED all the way down into single digits, that being 9.64%?
Something else puppies like you do not know is in the 60's and 70's many of the samples that were used for testing were from large busts of low grade seedy commercial pot was found in something like a tractor trailer or in a warehouse or something and that many times it would be stored, for as much as a year or more before testing, in government warehouses or sometimes under open sided sheds or left in the confiscated tractor trailer or even in the open under tarps and in that amount of time due to exposure to heat and sometimes sunlight much THC degraded before testing was performed.
If someone were to grow the strain that today has the highest tested level of THC, which would of course mean they relied on the calculated active cannabinoid testing method, and allowed it to be pollinated, grew it with seeds, stored it for as long as pot in the past was stored before testing and stored under the same conditions as pot was stored at the time and then tested it using the old testing procedure I would bet my left nut that it would not test any higher than any strain of the 60's or 70's and might even end up testing lower. In fact I would guarantee that it would test lower than some strains of that era.
Puppies like you do not know the true history of pot. Puppies like you never experienced the real true honest to goodness pure famous strains of the past. Puppies like you totally lack an equal frame of reference of potency and quality that those of us of 'The Woodstock Generation' possess.
Puppies like you talk of things you know nothing about and talk about things you have never experienced in your entire life as if you are experts on them when in fact you do not possess the slightest clue of the real true facts, you have no grasp of the true reality of which you speak.
And of course you know for a fact that not so much as one single customer of Sannies never received a single immature seed or failed to receive delivery or was not totally satisfied in any way for any reason, right? You can of course support that position, can't you? If not you should not be using such claims of experiences with Attitude or any other seedbank as an indictment or condemnation or denunciation or judgment.
I have owned three successful businesses in my life and if there is one single thing I have learned from it is it is utterly impossible to never make an error or never upset a customer at some time or another. It is impossible to run a flawless business and anyone who believes otherwise has never owned and run a business and has virtually no grasp of reality when it comes to business operation .... none ... none at all.
I have read messages where people said they were disappointed or dissatisfied with what they purchased from Sannie's or that their order was never received so how can you believe that you can honestly say; "All I'm saying is you will not find a dissatisfied customer who dealt with sannie?" How can you support your statement, only because you have never been let down by Sannie's and that it is a rare thing to happen so people do not read about it often?
As I have REPEATEDLY said, if Sannie's offers someone a strain or strains they like, and enough of them that they need not look to any other breeder to find what they like, then by all means purchase from Sannie's and Sannie's alone. Sannie's gear is NOT low quality by any means. It is only, like many breeder lines, highly limited in numbers of strains and in variety of strains and in the case of a 100% sativa not so much as one single one can be found at Sannies.
As for the seedbank rating site I posted, as I pointed out, the ratings are based on reports from growers all over the world and are not based on the highly limited opinion of any growing site and most definitely not based on your opinion or on my opinion. The ratings come from the results of a vastly larger number of growers so that in and of itself give credibility to them.
Also, as I clearly stated, I have relied on Greenman's ratings site for about 11 years now. I have always only purchased from the seeedbanks that at the time had the highest ratings and I have never once been ripped off, I have never once not had so much as a single order not arrive or not arrive in full or arrive incorrectly.
The only way I could say I have experienced any level or degree of disappointment was when rather than like usual purchasing from one or more of the very best of the very best breeders in the world I would experiment to see if some 'flavor of the month' strain that people on this site or on some other similar site were going all Lady Gaga over so I could see for myself if it was in fact as good as so many were claiming or nearly as good as so many were claiming or if it was average or if it sucked big time. Far more times than not the strains that most people were raving over were at best just a bit better than average and most times they were of average quality or lower.
But just because a seedbank offers strains for sale that are not all the best of the best is in no way proof of the business itself not being good or honest or reliable. It only means they offer a wide selection so there will be something there for everyone. Even as reasonably priced as most Sannie's strains are there are some people who do not have the funds to purchase them, there are people whose budgets are so tight that even Sannie's mostly reasonable prices are beyond. Seedbanks that have a vastly wider selection of breeder lines and strains provide a service to people like that. They offer them seeds they can afford. Yes the quality will not be up there with something from Shantibaba or Serious Seeds or Sensi Seeds or Reeferman or Sannie's or others, but if it is all someone can afford and they want to grow those low priced lower quality breeder lines are all they can afford, all they can choose from, so no seedbank that offers them should be considered to be of low quality and instead applauded for tying up their operating capital so they can offer strains of all price ranges.
As I said, not everyone can afford the very best and not everyone can even afford fairly high quality to high quality if reasonably priced and can only purchase what they can afford. At my old Lincoln-Mercury dealership we sold a Hell of a lot more new Tracers than we sold Lincoln Town Cars or Lincoln Continentals or Lincoln Mark VIII's. The Lincoln's were vastly higher in quality but there were far fewer people who could afford one. If we did not stock the Tracer and the Topaz and the Sable and even the Grand Marquis we would have excluded most of our customer base from being able to purchase from us.
Unless I am out to satisfy my curiosity by testing one of the 'flavor of the month' strains that so many people rave about that almost always comes from a breeder that is not a true high quality breeder I only purchase from the lines of several absolutely top line breeders because I know I can always rely on receiving quality and consistency, and that not only goes for Attitude because Attitude it not the only seedbank I use. But most breeders that Attitude, and every other seedbanks I used, are not ones I would purchase from unless it is a matter of curiosity about what so many people are going all Lady Gaga over.
Most are average at best when it comes to talent, their stable of breeding strains is highly limited and largely relies on the work of others or reusing previous strains they have made crossing them with other previous strains they have made, they tend to be very heavy into predominantly indica crosses which are not my thing and if they are lucky enough to come up with something that is pretty darn good it is more a case of how even a blind squirrel will find a nut now and then rather than something they created through true skill.
More than just a few rely largely on what are little more than gimmicks. They offer pretty colors and exotic aromas and fruity Pebbles flavors or other things that are in fact gimmicks like auto-flowering strains and even feminized beans. Not so much as one of those things has ever added up to higher quality or increased potency. Those breeders are incapable of offering customers anything more so they have to heavily rely on gimmicks, on the new model with the go faster stripes.
Some of the better breeders in the last few years have stooped to offering feminized seeds and even auto-flowering strains because the some breeders have managed to propagandize buyers into believing they are the way to go, and the buyers have fallen for it hook line and sinker, so to attempt to regain market-share even some of the best breeders, who know damn well that those products are for the most part crap, have had to resort to offering them too just to retain sufficient numbers of sales.
But then it comes to actual true potency, to true levels of THC, there has never been the massive increase in levels that the puppies of today fully believe occurred. The only differences that had actually occurred since the advent of the professional breeding business is the early lower quality failure strains have more or less vanished and the average level of quality has increased, but the highest quality, the most potent strains of all has not increased as the puppies of today believe it has. The other difference is there is more variety but then things have long since surpassed the point of overkill when it comes to variety. So many of today's strains are so very close to being the same thing that if tomorrow one quarter to one third of all existing strains vanished no one would be unable to find what they like because there would still be so many left that are so close to being the very same thing that no one would lose anything. The only difference is they would be purchasing the same old, same old from a different breeder.
Regardless of if you, or anyone else, accepts so much as a single word above it is all fact and no amount of personal opinion or personal preference will ever be enough to alter facts.

if, people have a wonderful experiences with sannie from purchase to harvest then speak about it they're cheerleaders so, what does that make you for attitude? the mascot. you have a million posts talking that attitude bullshit. get a fucking life, that shit is pathetic....just like the attitude germ rate and customer service.
out of all the breeders on there i could count the number on 1 hand of who's gear interests me. that's it!

I have made an order from each and happy with the experiences of each. The differences are obvious it just deends what your looking for. Attitude has a large selection of other breeder's seeds and sannies has a smaller collection of their own. They both have their place and I would recommend either of them.

I have made it more than abundantly clear that I only say that Attitude is one of the best seedbanks, just one of them, and that I do use several and not only Attitude. But when I see absurd claims and inaccurate comparisons made about any high quality seedbank I will and I do speak up for them. I have said nothing bad about Sannie's, nothing. I have only spoken the truth about Sannie's. I have said Sannie's offers quality gear at reasonable prices but it is not a business for me to do business with due to the limited selection not offering any 100% sativas, which is what I prefer and I said that in cases like that people need to look elsewhere and a quality seedbank like Attitude or Hemp Depot or Hemcy is where they then need to look because a seedbank will have a wide selection of strains from numerous breeders rather than only one limited breeder line.
Anyone who can claim that any breeder direct sales business has as much to offer, or more to offer, and what it has to offer is higher quality than every single breeder line at any quality seedbank like Attitude is either a pure cheerleader, irrational or a liar.
I am sorry if you do not like that but it is the truth. I don't care which breeder direct sales site someone picks, it will be unable to compete with any quality seedbank when it comes to selection, and when it comes to quality the best it will be able to do is to match the best breeder lines at a quality seedbank, but not top them all. If one could top them all than the seedbank would not be a quality seedbank to begin with and would not be one I would be talking about, supporting, defending or recommending to anyone who wants a wide selection of breeder lines and strains to pick from rather than have a highly limited selection at any one breeder direct sales site.

I agree with your outlook on this. I also believe the delays could possibly stem from different shipping methods. Sannie's ships through regular postal mail with no tracking whereas Attitude burries the seeds inside of an item such as a t-shirt, creates a bigger mail parcel, and sets up a means of tracking. It appears that Sannie's is able to slip under the radar more effectively and shipping goes through the royal mail& USPS more expediently. Attitude & Sannie's both have their drawbacks & in no way, shape, or form am I putting either one down here. I have simply noticed a slightly more expedient delivery from Sannie's to my location in the PAC NW than the Tude.. So far that is.

I thought Sannies shipped 1st class but I just noticed he ships Priority. There is a difference even though they did away with "ground" some time ago. Both 1st and Priority go on a plane. However Priority gets preference and gets across faster. I'm not so sure larger objects attract more attention. After all jewelry comes in small packages and it can be subject to customs inspections. It should really cost too much more if Attitude ships inside a t-shirt. Anything under a couple lbs should be reasonable. There is sort of a tracking for Priority btw. I don't mean the delivery confirmation but rather like check point scans. It's more of a tracer than some sort of UPS tracking though.

I just received my order from the Tude today complete with my cracked coffee mug. I was kinda stoked for the mug and the handle was completely obliterated while the rest of the mug was intact. The Brains Damage was dated 2009 and Aurora Indica was dated 2008. I also got a free Feminized Delicious Seeds II Diavolo which is kind of whatever for me but I am hoping the seeds germ even though they are 2 & 3 years old now.

Hopefully,
I'm not too familiar with the shelf life of cannabis seeds. My benefit of the doubt meter indicates they must feel that the seeds are still good. Time will tell. It's amazing how many mugs travel all the way from China and survive aboard a cargo ship and your mug traveled on a plane and broke. Could have even happened sorting. Little boxes are often thrown around. Squeaky wheel gets the grease though. Tell them your concerns.

I am an oldtimer who smoked Panama Red, Alcupolco? Gold, Maui Wowie, Columbian, gold and brown, Tie stick, etc.
I am new to MM and was wondering if you have any recomendations for a good 100% sativa bean as well as a 100% indica to purchase.
Thanks for your writings. I keep telling youngsters today that their bud is not better then stuff I smoked when I was 15. They seldom believe it.

Here is a fairly good thread that goes into the 100% sativa discussion. Bricktop is very knowledgeable on this topic imo.
https://www.rollitup.org/smoke-reports/377547-best-connoisseur-sativa-6.html
In a nut-shell, most of the pure sativas are considered 'old school', with seeds by breeders like Reeferman (Willie Nelson is considered one of his better strains).
The trouble with sativas is that they are challenging indoors, which is why I lean more towards the sativa heavy hybrids (Kali Mist, Vortex, Sannies Jack).

People today will not believe how good pot was in the 60's and the 70's because they do not know how the way the testing for THC was changed and how it made strains from the 60's and 70's appear to be low in THC levels and more modern strains higher in THC and they want and need to believe they have better herb to smoke. They have been totally propagandized and they love the propaganda.
When it comes to a 100% sativa you might want to check into Reefermans Seeds - Cambodian .. also called Phnom Penh
Strain: Phnom Penh
Breeder: Reeferman
Location: indoor, outdoor
Type: sativa

No feminized seeds.
Aka: Cambodian
The PP is anything but average! Crossing to a Thai x Haze father tames the wild sativa just a little bit, with out losing the psychedelic stone and spicy incense , black tea flavors of the Cambodian jungle weed. Not for beginners
Inside Finish Time: 14 weeks / Outside Finish Time: early December / Variation: 3.5 / Odor Level: 2 / Mold Resistance: 6 / Yield: 4 / Ease of Growth: 3 / Feed Level: 2.5 / Stretch: 3.5x
Or maybe his Willie Nelson . Reefermans Seeds - Willie Nelson

2005 High Times Cannabis Cup Winner - Best Sativa
An F1 hybrid between Vietnamese Black and Highland Nepalese . Its Willie favorite smoke , he tried it once and bought the whole crop. What else do you need to know? How about a sweet and sour, lemongrassy flavor and a reasonable 10-12 week flowering time? Good mold resistance and a friendly, soaring high round out the package.
Inside Finish Time: 10-14 weeks / Outside Finish Time: Late November / Variation: 3 / Odor Level: 3.5 / Mold Resistance: 4.5 / Yield: 4 / Ease of Growth: 4 / Feed Level: 4.5 / Stretch: 2.5-3x
Or his Haze Brothers Original Haze. Reefermans Seeds - Haze bros original Haze

Haze brothers original haze crazy old school this is the original haze that all haze hybrids were bred from strong cat pissy super long flowering sativa that will blow your mind very special its back in all her glory these plants stretch like mad getting huge you will need to flower cuttings as soon as they root to keep plants under 6 feet tall medium yielding the best breeding haze available today. 12-16 weeks flowering time and worth the wait reasonable because no veg is required.
Another to try might be hard to find right now, but would be worth looking for. Afropips Seeds - Malawi Gold
Strain: Malawi Gold

The high is long lasting & has an enjoyable alert mental clarity coupled with a warm pleasant feeling that radiates throughout the body.
The unique tropical & luxuriant spicy sativa up high can be attributed to the presence of THCV in this early cultivated strain.
Or you could try this one. Afropips Seeds - Swazi Red
Strain: Swazi Red
Breeder: Afropips
Location: indoor, outdoor
Type: sativa
Flowering: ~90 days
No feminized seeds.
Swazi roolbaard from the top swazi breeder in nkomati region of swaziland. Roolbaard wich is afrikaans for red beard gets its name from and is renowned for its spectacular red bud hairs. Swazi is a high yielding and resinous pure african landrace sativa wich produces a strong natural high. The strain has a long odour, wich has been compared to a fine cigar and an earthy smoke with a high that is energetic and clear. Buds on this plant can reach the size of an adults forearm and ary typically compact and very sticky. This famous strain is enjoyed by many south africans.
When it comes to pure indicas ... I'm not a fan, or even much of a fan of many predominantly indicas so someone else would have to give you a recommendation or two for pure indicas.

It's only arguable if one side does not know the facts. As I previously stated, the way THC levels were tested in the past was different and it caused them to be or appear to be much lower and when the test procedure was altered it cause them to be or appear to be much higher.
Here is an example of one breeder who advertises one of it's strains where the THC level was tested using the old testing method and the new testing method. Be sure to notice the BIG difference in the percentage of THC in the exact same strain from the exact same breeder.

Something else people do not know is in the 60's and 70's many of the samples that were used for testing were from large busts of low grade seedy commercial pot was found in something like a tractor trailer or in a warehouse or something and that many times it would be stored, for as much as a year or more before testing, in government warehouses or sometimes under open sided sheds or left in the confiscated tractor trailer or even in the open under tarps and in that amount of time due to exposure to heat and sometimes sunlight much THC degraded before testing was performed.

In fact I would guarantee that it would test lower than some strains of that era.
When someone does not know how the way THC was tested for, the changes that removed much of what used to be factored in they will always believe the old low percentages and they will always believe the more recent higher percentages are both accurate. Of course they also do not know that there are two modern testing methods where one would still result in single digit THC percentages in modern strains but of course 'The Dutch Masters' never advertise those percentages because it would not be impressive, it would look like they are cranking out strains that are not more potent than in the 60's and 70's .... which they in fact are not ... but that would destroy their image and shatter their egos so they will always use the results of the testing procedure that makes them look like Ganja Gods.
