Ordered from Gyo 2 weeks ago, paid by Zelle. Zero communication from them despite repeated attempts to contact. I can only conclude it is a scam. Only $100 lost, but still. I have had good experiences with Nirvana, so will go back to them. I recommend staying far away from Gyo.

Ordered from them a couple months ago, mailed them cash plain envelope, received three emails from them, once when my payment was received, one to tell me shipping was going to be delayed a couple days the last when my order was shipped, took over 3 weeks total, non of my seeds were in breeders packs not even the larger quantities of the same strain, 9 for 9 germination so far the growth is excellent too early to tell if they are as advertised but the seedlings all look the same..

I've used gyo several times, they seem to be a sister site with single seed centre, if you click the link at the bottom of called breeder packs on single seed centre, it takes you to gyo.. Their sister site ssc is also listed on Dutch passions certified retailer list as well.. I have used GYO several time, all with success.. They do sneek in a service fee.. Don't forget to say today your bday when you sign up and use your points toward $$.. good luck

Yes, I have and I'm quite upset! I've seen YouTube videos of order unboxing and was eager to do the same with my almost 500usd order. When my seeds arrived, they were not in their special bean box and missing freebies as well as 4 of 5 ordered AK 47 seeds. No Kaboom either! They told me they would fix it and send me free seeds with my order because of delay but they sent no extras besides what I had chose. I'm guessing they do not communicate well within the company. .. Over all, I'm a bit disappointed and will pay more in the future to buy from a Canadian or US seed bank! On the website, it shows for each tier you can choose from 3 different kinds of seeds, and if you choose regular you get 5, fem 3, and auto 2. They tried to tell me that I was confused and you only get 1 from any choice! The following is a pic of the website where it discusses the freebie seeds:

I've bought from them twice now. The first time I had paid credit and received the single seed you get to choose from each tier. I think the confusion was in the way they described the available freebie seeds you are able to choose from in each tier. The second time I bought from them, I paid in cash and the reward for cash or money order payments are a 5 pack of free seeds. I got 5 white widow seeds for my cash payment. I've bought about 50 seeds from them so far and every single one has popped for me. However, after reading that picture you posted, they really havent changed their freebie options in several months!!

Just a personal thing, but I would never spend 500 in one order. I would break that down into 5 orders if not more, plus scoop in all the freebies for 5 different 100 dollar order. You could make bank if you work the promos.
F Herbies. I will never use him again after his Afghan freebies. They were the worst shit I have ever grown and basically wasted months of space for some bullshit that wasn't even worthy of a trash can.

My first L.A. SAGE freebie from GYO seedbank wasn't very good. I'm giving it one more chance from a single clone I cut for my current grow. This time its looking better, but I'm only in week 5 of flower now. Time will tell if I keep or toss it.

Have you tried autos in 10 or 15 gallon pots? I have a few auto fem seed freebies from gyo.green and will probably toss them in my next grow or the following grow. I have 3 gallon, 5 gallon, 7 gallon, 10 gallon, and 15 gallon fabric pots. I listened to everyone getting away with smaller pots and in my experience, it just limits your plants potential!! However, autos have size limitations that photos do not carry. Those ruderalis genetics. I keep hearing others throw autos in 3Gs and 5Gs, but rarely 10+Gs. What do you think is the auto bucket size sweet spot?

I’m using about 8 gal pots thinking it would be a bit of an over kill for coco but it’s turned out to be just rite for outdoors holds water for a few days ect.. it is my first coco grow however it did give me very quick growth similar to dwc indoors ... I planted there feminized pineapple chunk freebie not long ago and is going well and not flowering outdoors yet witch is good I wanna try get a clone or two off it and put them in dwc .... more indica strong autos you could probably use a smaller pot but I think 8gal is good for the larger Sativas ... I’m probably using the biggest pot size here tho for autos

I like Pineapple Chunk a lot! I took clones from my freebie from gyo! It definitely smelled like pineapples and cheese!! I have 3 growing right now! Just chopped a bunch more maybe clones last week from my flowering chunks. I hope they take root soon!
I have ordered from them NOT HAPPY !!! the quality of seeds are crap bought 5 only one cracked and no tail formed now I have to jump though hoops to get them replaced Thankful I used my credit card they are reversing the charges DO NOT BUY FROM GYO
Did they crack open and form a tail?
Yeah. All of them formed a tail and half or more are above ground. Waiting on the rest. What is your germination process? I put mine in a small glass of water over night. 12 to 14 hoursish. Then place them between a folded up damp paper towel inside a ziplock bag that is sealed after blowing some air into it. Finally placing the ziplock on top of a computer or cable box for heat so that is gets humid inside.
That is what I did also but only one cracked and no tails I must have got a bad pack .. still will not buy from them again they do not answer the phone nor the emails I sent in before the voice message i left
