the seeds were "mama thai"(who comes up with these names?)from seedsman...a couple of them are swelling slightly, but otherwise, no germination...everything else I put in the container works... I'll wait another week and see.

still waiting....I think these are duds. I still have 5 to try; but aside from 2 seeds swelling slightly-nada! I'll have to order from someone else. I had a REAL problem with the boss over their(attitude) insistence on certified mail..- the day the order came was the one day we go to town; so I get this notice in the mail...then the boss is freakin' because he thinks the feds are waitin' at the post office. long story short- three days of paranoia until re-delivery..nobody else put me through that!- they just sent it! so I'm done with the attitude! -aint worth gettin' kicked off the ranch!

I went ahead and dumped the last 5 in the sprouting container..I'm sick of waiting! I'm sure it's just a pack of bunk seeds...that's what you get when you go with retailers...god knows how long they sat on the shelf!... I'll just have to go with british hempire; at least I can trust them.

some of these seeds have been in the container for 2 weeks now! NADA!!! thanks ATTITUDE!
I'd be more prone to blame seedsman, attitude just does the inventory and shipping and you got them :hump:. My guess is they are not popular and they were old. I'd probably try British Hempire since you already have used them or the highland thai from real seeds through attitude. I hate to send anybody to other forums, but I think I saw a few asian strains at THCbay through THCfarmer. good luck

*i don't see anything @THCbay, but i'll leave it because there are some great breeders and strains there. Check out Sonic's pine queen haze, the cali connection, sannie, reeferman and Motarebel all sell through them. I think maybe subcool stopped selling through them, but still is part of the breeders forum there. enjoy!

] I wouldn't blame seedsman, and here's why: if I'm an egg rancher, and the grocery store sells my eggs after the expiration date, and someone gets salmonella; is that my responsibility? I'm sure the seeds were viable at one point(I would've gotten one or 2 if they were preemies)...they just sat too long. this is a gaping hole in the business.

Point taken bro. Either way you're SOL. I think this might be a problem with lots of thai, lao, cambodian etc...because they are notorious for being difficult to grow. Again, i'm pointing towards the Hempire~i'm sure I've seen some asian seeds there. I get the feeling that if it gets bad reports there, it get's shit canned. Reeferman has some good Far eastern strains and mixes, but be prepared to pay.

yeah..the lao is callin' my name...and yeah -the best seed companies are invariably the small guys. they have something to prove! the big guys are operating on volume, and can't be bothered with individual complaints, and would probably go broke fixing bad orders. there should be an arrangement of some sort, that random sprout testing on seeds over 6 months old, and removal of expired stock is swapped out for good ones.

Hey Hillbilly, check out seedbay's discontinued section. Both Homegrown fantaseeds and the flying dutchman have a bunch there. I believe the flying dutchman is run by sensi these days...anyway, they both have some good looking Sats...not landraces though.

The free thai super skunk seeds are absolutely fine. If you can't grow them then you need to look at yourself not the seed company. The seed company is the people who's job it is to make and sell seeds. They know exactly what they are doing. I got the free pack of five and only tried sprouting one. It sprouted, was female, and is now making delicious chocolaty smelling buds.

I didn't get the thai super skunk! I got the"mama thai" from seedsman. I'm certain that I could sprout them if they weren't duds...I'd at least get 1 or 2...I don't attempt them all at once, and I've been sprouting elite genetics seeds, and my own hybrids in the same container at the same time as the 'mama thai'(love the stupid name!)- they work, but not one mama thai.

england is kinda' under the radar as far as customs go...compared to b.c. or amsterdam...I've ordered from one company in b.c. no problem, and several times from bidzbay...also from elite genetics- his stuff is shipped out of indiana! no international borders on that one...and some of the most ridiculously frosted weed ever! unless you're already high up on the local bad guy list, there's really no cause for alarm...think of it this way: law enforcement runs on money...most local and state governments are extremely short of money...therefore; real crime tends to take precedent. you'll see a lot less helicopter action as well...fuel costs money!
