Seedbank reviews

Not sure if this is the right location for this thread, but I'd like to start a thread about seedbanks and/or anyone who sells seeds for that matter. We all know who the big players are but there seems to be a few sham sites about. My most recent negative experience was with Manchester cannabis seeds. I enquired about a pack of spoetnik #1 from paradise seeds. I got an immediate response from a guy called Andrew saying they had 1 pack in stock. So I placed the order, being in the UK it should only take a few days max, after a few weeks I've tried contacting them by email and phone to no avail. I don't think I'll see any seeds. Feel free to post both negative and positive comments about seed purchases

is easy to find walk-in head shops selling seeds in uk, Bristol got a few.. mostly sell from famous reputable breeders.. Why don't you go in person to buy it?

I just finished a cash order with seedsherenow.com which I was initially alittle skeptical about but they had some Snowhigh gear that’s hard to find. Took a week for shipping and I had a lovely email chat with one of the reps who reached out shortly after ordering.
Otherwise seedsman, Ace seeds, Colorado sativas, Green Bodhi and others like the vault and gorilla like people said. I will say Colorado Sativas is not fully vetted for quality and authenticity of genetics but I’m currently growing a destroyer hybrid they have that is super promising looking in that regard.

Never had any issues with Seedsman or Sensible Seeds. Sensible seeds I got my seeds in under a week. That's pretty fast for UK to West Coast USA. Would use either again.

@xtsho Actually I used sensible seeds for my most recent order, forgot to include them..received my order within 3 days, got some blue dream for freebies. Its an old looking site straight from the 90s but whoever runs it is responsive in emails and sends quickly. Payment method to be desired though

In the past i used buy quite a few single seeds, turned out quite a few of those are fakes, even from some of the bigger retailers. Suffice to say i stick to full packs these days.

Also to add a couple that havent been mentioned yet: simply souvenirs, pips, thebritishseedcompany, terpyseeds

Greenpoint I could add is good, and seed heaven.

I know a girl who worked packing the single seeds, she worked alone when filling the orders. She was honest, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out that someone working in this position may take advantage, same with package removed for stealth. Seeds should arrive in a sealed package, date of production is a nice bonus.

I've spoken to the guy a few times via email. He always replies promptly. Most recently I asked him about reeferman seeds as they recently stocked some of his gear. Packs started off around £80 but they changed the pricing on some strains to £250 to £300 .......outrageous but he said they had the pricing wrong and have to go with what the breeder wants

He does offer many seeds at $100-150 also but a few strains at $441

Absolutely mental, particularly with his shady behaviour lately. No evidence of grows or finished product. Just seed straight to market, riding on a reputation from years ago.
Buyer beware I say

For that price I hope they're packs of 50 seeds but I'm sure they're not. I don't understand why anyone would pay those prices for a pack of 10 cannabis seeds. There are plenty of other offerings that are not ridiculously priced. But I guess if there are people willing to part with their money then might as well take it from them.

I have never paid those prices, never will pay those prices, and am growing strains as good or better than those that do.

I saw that. It's completely insane. Seems like many are trying to cash in on the recent hype and interest in older landrace type strains. I don't know anything about that outfit but I would never pay that even if they were authentic which is highly questionable.

I have some of your stuff. I have been told by reputable sources that this is really good. I keep wanting to grow it but it keeps getting bumped by stuff I'm working on. I think I'll do half the pack here shortly.
