Well This Years Grow Is Basically Over Before It Even Started!!!

Well it doesnt look like im going to be getting to even start a grow this year.... I have always ordered my beans from attitude seed bank with no problems, but this year i have ordered twice and both times taken by god damn customs!!! The first order was April 11th and i placed a second order on May 20th both were taken by customs....Im about fucked for this year.... Even if i wanted to try to place another order i have short growing season here and customs has put a big dent in it already.....Last year i got some out by first week of july and they did pretty well for having 1 month less of veg time.....Does anyone have any other ideas? My international mail comes through chicago customs and i hear they are one of the worst.....I only have 2 maybe 3 weeks left to get some seeds and get em started and outside.... Any input would be greatly appreciated....thanks all

Sorry to hear that.
You could start 50+ bag seeds 12/12 indoors and put them out as soon as they show sex.
 
lol yea...if only i had bag seeds....i haven't had a seed in the stuff i been smoking on in a while now, and the last stuff that had bag seeds was so crappy it b a waste of time lol

do a search for stealth shipping from seed bay here on the icmag sub forum

Maybe customs is on to attitude? Try ordering from a different place? Attitude must be sucking at their stealth, and the boxes probably all smell enough to alert dogs. There are so many other places to order from. Try even going directly to certain breeders websites and you'll see they retail other seeds too.

Sorry about your bad luck. You could always try again, from a different place, and go with short season plants. Maybe even feminized autos.
 
Bay and bou make it through chicago with no problems.

Set up yourself a site for seeds this year with the late starts, and next year it won't be a concern if beans get seized cause you will have plenty

You stil have time just order today
i figure if you start seeds on june 17 they will look out on the summer solstice (22.6)
at least at my lattitude 47N they start to flower on avgust 18 so if you are in simmilar situation you still have whole 8 weeks of veg and then 3-4 weeks of strech so its still possible to get 2-3 oz a plant i think

if i were you i would order 100% sativa that flowers fast (9-10 weeks) for example
MEXTIZA from cannabiogen
Short description:

type: Sativa Nepal/Jamaica x Mexico Oaxaca
Flowering: 9-10 weeks
Yield: medium/high


Hell i would like to do it too but i dont want to have more plants for security reasons
peace

did u do a guaranteed delivery with a tshirt? I have ordered a ton of seed and never ever have not received them.. but I pay the extra guarantee and tshirt fees to make sure!

wat state u in ?
 
I'd guess Wisconsin. How long after seeds were sent until they sent you a seizure letter?

i never received a seizure letter either time they got taken.... firt order was placed aprill 11th and i got package a week later with green tape and no seeds....2nd order was made may 25 and this one took until june 8 to arrive with same results...

find some clones from some buddies or pop some local bagseed. Hell half the brick these days are shorter flowering hybrids, some of my best bagseed grows have been from some skunky brick.
 
i also placed a new order with herbies to try some different stealth options.... i have heard good things about their super stealth option and i didnt find anything when searching google for herbies seed order seizures as compared to the pages n pages of attitude seizures....ill let you all know how both the attitude re-ship and the herbies order end up going... thanks for the responses
 
Any EU re-mailing services?

attitude re-ships orders if lost or seized by customs....you have to email them with a picture of package with the green "inspected by US customs" tape and also a pic of your name and address on package & tracking number...at least thats what i did and they emailed me back within 1 day saying theyd reship
 
UPDATE

UPDATE

ok so i just found out that the attitude order has been re-shipped already today... i just emailed them about re-shipping my package last night and shipped already today....i am impressed by how fast they got it re-shipped....

On the down side both the attitude and the herbies orders were both shipped out today, so they will be comming through customs at the same time probably..... i dunno if thats a good or bad thing....hahaha atleast the orders have 2 different names.... 1 has my girlfriends and 1 has my name....but same address haha

Forget about ordering from those other places mentioned mate :nono:
Order your beans from Seed Boutique and Seedbay and they will get through to you. If I was in your position I would look for quick finishing genetics from either place and order them for your fast approaching outdoor season.
Don't bother wasting your time, energy and most of all important your money ordering from those other seed banks, the Bay and the Bou will do the job for you :good:

EDIT:- It sounds like you might need a new SAFE ADDRESS too mate, I would look into that also as your current one might be a bit hot :dunno:
