Acapulco Gold Repro

Great job @lambchopedd! Lots of happy OGer’s thanks to you. Looking forward to getting unto these someday soon. Thanks!
Never heard of a smashed plastic anything

Must have been stomped on. Nothing wrong with the packaging at all. Crazy. Angry mailman must have just filled up at the pump. That’ll do it !:face_with_symbols_over_mouth:
Now…who is popping some AG?

US mail uses some death rollers from hell in their sorting machines. I switched to corrugated plastic (and to cardboard later) because a vial arrived in the US crushed.

There is even an extra “non-machinable” stamp because of this. Maybe check it out @lambchopedd

The coin flips are the way to go due to better stealth, but Ill be looking into that non machinable stamp myself. Still have a few hundred vials to use. Thanks!

Well worth the full read, though it does leave me a bit unsure about ever running the Nierika AG pack I have. Maybe if I could swing a heated greenhouse I could pull it off outdoors.

Bit late to the party. Been off-site this past week! Way to kill another seed run! Killer packaging too!

Once I get done with this 16+ week girl I’ll give it ago. Once she’s cured I should have some energy from her to make it through the AG :joy: :crossed_fingers:

Beans showed up here in good shape. Package a little damaged but vial intact. Thanks again.

The coin flips are the way to go for snail mail. Otherwise the risk is to high of them getting destroyed or found, the other trick is to put them in a card or thick paper wrapped around it so when it goes through the pressure rollers it doesn’t take the edges and cut the envelope

Received and very appreciated. Looking for a good AG was one of my first posts on the site :smiley:

The vial looks like it was stressed a little, because I see some vertical cracks, but all the beans inside appear to be fine. Thanks so much :slight_smile:
