The fact is people send money and want there seed ASAP. You do everything right then FEEL delayed... it can bother some people.. I see a lot of folks sticking up for GLG, that’s probably because YOU know how the process goes... Maybe YOU or I don’t mind waiting a little longer doesn’t mean other can’t wonder..The fact is some other banks move a little faster. And not just GLG, any bank moving slower than your patience will allow causes concern... You gotta ask yourself.. if I can email you, and tell you .. you are in processing, and 2 weeks later your still there....c’ mon man... are u making seeds... or is the building that big you can’t find them... maybe it’s time to hire more help to be more efficient... after all isn’t that why we buy new lights and shit...just a thought

I for one don’t mind waiting at all. They are a small business. I have that figured in. They have great prices, great seed companies, a really good website for selecting freebies and great freebies in general. I would much rather give them my money than another seedbank. People need to relax. Try ordering overseas using cash 10 years ago. That will put things in perspective. People are too impatient.

this is not 10 years ago. we live in a time where i can get same day delivery from amazon.
i see a lot of people saying oh just wait you'll get the seeds.
not receiving the seeds is not the issue.
the problem is having to wait weeks for an order without any disclaimer saying so.
all the people defending glg saying they give the best freebies. i dont care about the freebies. i will never grow them. i just want the seeds i ordered.
the freebies i received are just testers. its not really free when im doing work for you growing out your testers.

it took over 3 weeks from when i sent my payment to when i received my seeds. i ordered from 3 different places at that time and received them within a week.

Let it go. If you needed seeds fast. Ordering during a 420 sale which is probably the busiest sale of the year isn't the best time. If it's that big of a deal just buy somewhere else. People stick up for glg because they rock and are good people. Btw all those testers you dont want , send them my way. They rock too.

Let me preface by saying once again I don't mind the wait at all... since you mentioned overseas...

I actually dropped two envelopes in the mail that same day, 1 going to GLG, the other going to Attitudes. I received both packages on the exact same day. So it took the same time to send cash to the UK and go through customs, and then package sent back through customs.

Fellas I think it’s just us First time ordering that don’t understand.. fair enough they displayed in the sale notes about the delay from high traffic... can we come back with some trees growing in this thread from them no matter the vendor...I think Bodean said it best... go somewhere else to get the breeders seeds..if ya gotta have them pronto

All you first time GLG customers complaining even after you see the folks who have ordered before and know the process saying you need to be patient but you’ll get your order in full....call your plug, get you something to tide you over, and chill.

Y’all recognize that hiring more people to help means more expenses, right? People won’t work for free...and those who will aren’t reliable. More wages paid out means either less (or no) profit, which is razor thin during big promo periods anyway, or it means that we don’t get as many awesome freebies, or it means DBJ cant run as good of promos, or else it means DBJ needs to raise prices to cover the extra expense. In other words, something’s gotta give. Businesses that don’t profit don’t stick around, despite what socialists like Bernie Sanders and AOC would have you believe.

All y’all complaining should feel free to open up the Amazon of seedbanks. See how many of the actual fire breeders you can establish and maintain relationships with for your inventory. Then see how much it costs you to take credit cards, ship 2 day packages, and hire as many workers as you need to to keep up as the orders roll in...all the stuff you think GLG should “just do”. I’m betting I’ll keep shopping at GLG because I won’t want to afford your prices.

There are seedbanks that I would cut all business with for the delay I’ve had on my order. GLG is not one of them, they were upfront, communicated on their end, always exceeded my expectations in every way. I want to make a crass comment about “what if I was counting on this for my outdoor cross” to be fair if you planned ahead they sell seeds all year round and have multiple promos throughout the year. I just wish they had lighters still, emailed asking if they had any to pack in my order.

I too just received my order after roughly three weeks.

I received bad dawg freebies, as with my last couple orders from them.

This time they were long bottom leaf x starfighter, I also have the long bottom x deadhead og, and another lbl cross.

Has anyone ever grown any lbl, or crosses of it from glg?

If so, are they worth growing?

Absolutely. Blackberry Banana Kush x LBL was potent AF.
