First time seeing this happen to a leaf. Took cuts thinned out 4 Secret Service nearing 60 day veg. First time running anything from Redbeard/CSI so I’m excited to see something new. It’s also my first time running anything with Urkle or Mendo in it so that will be nice for a change too. I have a taller pheno chucking out some serious stem rub funk that’s got me smiling.

Place a order and had confirmation of payment on Sept 19th. Sent two emails just checking everything went OK with the order after reading on here that sometime his system was down or whatever. I haven't had a reply nor can I reach anyone by phone or the text support line. I saw on this thread some people didn't get notifications or got their seeds a month later... has anyone gotten recent orders? Is there a better way to contact FFG?

Has anyone ordered recently? It's been a month now and I still haven't been able to communicate with anyone at founding fathers seeds. Does anyone here know of alternative ways to reach out to them? The seeds I ordered were not pre order. Stating to feel a little burned here. Not sure why they would have on their website "all orders not on pre order will ship within 3-6 business days. At this point I would just like to communicate with someone there.

I dropped my phone # into an email a while back and he texted me today. Said his email was acting shitty & not showing new messages, so now hes trying to do everything by text & said its been really tough transitioning and figuring everything out. He said sorry for the delays, & he is sending out my package tomorrow.

Did he text you from that text support number on his website? I have emailed called texted, nothing. How in 2021 can a business not have a stable email provider? Everything else on his site works great, payments accepted, they even send you an email if you leave something in your cart. I'm sure dudes got fire gear, but taking peoples money with no communication for over a month is not cool man.

I sent a more detailed text message and heard back from him today, Said that will be the method of communication going forward and the communication was good there. Dude made it right and I'm really looking forward to popping those beans.

Same here, he followed up and added freebies for the inconvenience. Package arrived today, everything in order, and the extras where nice.

the old "my email is acting up" excuse lol

funny how ive never had that problem and Ive been using emails since the 90s
LMFAO. I was thinking the same thing.
Funny how I came here to give them a shot and almost half of the post in this thread are asking or talking about not receiving what they ordered in a timely fashion.
I'll be damn if I order something and it takes a month or longer to get to me. I'm flaming the shit out of a company and i wouldn't give 2 fucks about how someone else takes it.
These dudes be sounding like straight fan boys defending people's action that they don't even know. None of them ever say to themselves, "damn, he got and probably spent that money a month ago, why should others have to wait a month while he cashes in on the day he received payment?"

This is my second time ordering from him. Apparently if we don't chastise the man for not receiving our orders fast enough makes us fanboys? Huh what a wonderful assessment and poor assumption you got there XD Also where has anyone defended him? From every post I can see most people just said he filled the order and made it right. I don't see a single person defending him, just that their elongated order was fulfilled.

I'm curious do you guys just hang around seed bank threads hoping something bad happens so you can shit on the breeder? Because I checked your guys post histories and you just seem like your waiting around for a reason to shit on the dude XD You have 0 prior posts in the thread its like your just clout fishing.

I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. Is it unprofessional to make customers wait that long? Sure, but it's also an illegal operation of sending federally restricted objects through a federal mailing system. So I don't think any of us has the entitlement to treat these seed banks like they are normally run and operated businesses that should just have your product to you the second you order it. Your also dealing with stoners and growers, not the most punctual people in the entire population of the world. Even some of the most reputable seed banks I've had delay issues with.

Idk, maybe I'm not as anal or elitist as most of you in the Cannabis world. But I don't think the situation is that bad. I see a lot of people having contact issues with RedBeard but I always see those people follow up and hear that it was made right in the end. Yes he needs some remidning sometimes, yes it's a tad slow, and yes we as customers shouldn't have to deal with it. But: On both of my orders, albeit a bit late, he basically doubled the orders value in freebie packs. And In my most recent case even more than doubled what I ordered. I paid him money, and got way more than I bargained for.

In an illegal trade business where that man could have just taken my $$$ and never responded to me. In an illegal transaction where I have no legal course of action or any type of way to get my money back: He still sent me what I ordered, and about quadroupled the original order value if I put both orders/contents together.

it's unprofessional and I probably wont order from him again in the future unless he has something I really want, but to call me a fanboy of his for not freaking out and flaming this dudes seedbank for being a few weeks late? Ehhhh my panties aint in a wad like that. I don't need other people who didn't even order from the same dude to complain on my behalf, or assume im defending him.

Founding fathers is a good friend and stand up dude, sorry people get upset for waiting. Don't order simple as that.... but you'll find he hasn't ripped one person off. Most of the people that order seeds arnt even ready to pop em with in a week of receiving them.
The irony here is, people who didn't even order from him are complaining & flaming Redbeard based on OTHER peoples orders that ended up fine.
Just a bunch of clout trouts.
Actively trying to complain for you XD Then when you don't instantly flame the man for a 3 week late order your apparently his fanboy XD

I love the narratives people will paint in their brain to feel right in their skewed emotions lol.

I got all my stuff and twice as many seeds as I ordered. I know hes a good dude and that the seeds would have just been sitting in my vault anyways, so ill happily take 500$ in free seeds to have to wait a little bit.
