Howdy @highpreist, I think some of the best and highest quality genetics come from DJ Short and @Blue_Star_Seed_Co genetics. They have some authorized retailers and my favorite authorized retailers for them are DC Seed Exchange, Seeds Here Now, and JBC Seeds.
Ordering direct is always preferred in my opinion so I’d recommend getting in touch with @Blue_Star_Seed_Co via PM here in the forums if seeking out some of the Blue Star Seed Co work.
I’m also a fan of BOG seeds available from Seeds Here Now as well.
Humboldt CSI is a great brand, they also sell regulars under their Pirates of the Emerald Triangle label. I would suggest trying to order direct before going through an authorized retailer because you’d probably get more and better freebies by doing so. I just Google Humboldt CSI when I’m looking to place an order and their website shows up in the immediate results. Lots of S1’s and hybrids with elite work. Lots of heirloom and landrace types reproductions under the Pirates label. They have some authorized retailers as well but I’ve only ordered direct from them. I think Seeds Here Now carries some of the CSI work and another shop I think it’s called Beeeders Direct Seed Co. or something like that.
Mr. Nice Seeds, also able to order direct. I usually just go in the Mr. Nice forums and click the link from there for their shop. The auctions are fantastic although shipping can be a bit steep so ordering more than one pack to mitigate the upfront cost of shipping can be helpful for those who are frugal such as myself. If bidding in the auctions please don’t go wild with bids because everything is continually listed and with patience everyone can grab stuff for a great value. No need to bid up others and in turn yourself, in my opinion. If it’s gets past 20 or 30 euros just wait until the next listing for that variety is my strategy and I’ve been able to pick up nearly everything less than 30 euros and only a handful of the most coveted varieties like SSH, Neville’s Haze, and Mango Haze for a bit more than that. Also it would be good manners to join up on the MNS forums to contribute there as well if taking advantage of the auctions because the MNS auctions are really for the community to be able to have access to top notch genetics at value prices. So participating in the MNS community some in addition to here on Overgrow seems like the right thing to do in my opinion if participating and making use of those specific auction listings.
Real Seed Company for heirlooms and landraces.
I’m probably forgetting some.
Ace Seeds, they have their own website to order direct as well as authorized retailers if shipping to your region isn’t available when ordering direct.
Always order direct whenever possible is my opinion and preference. Support the breeders direct whenever possible.
Authentic Genetics has some quality genetics as well. Purest Indica and NL work from Greg as well as Original Haze work from Sam. Any Cultivators Choice genetics are worth having in my opinion.
@MadMac also works with a lot of Cultivators Choice genetics from Sam. I’m not sure where he retails seeds from or if he sells directly but I would definitely recommend sending him a PM as well.
SeedHeaven has great work.
Also Real Gorilla Seeds, the Icmag seed shop. They’re genuine with quality genetics as well.
I’ve purchased from Seedsman as well and enjoy the quality of genetics. They retail for a plethora of breeders.
Above all else, right here on Overgrow. The genetics and seeds shared here in these forums are some of the best and highest quality around. The members here are some of the most passionate hobbyists and breeders in the scene with top notch genetics.
I have some Dr. Grinspoon x Who’s Yo Daddy that I’ve been sharing and trading with. Mostly comprised of Blueberry types for the pollen contributions. So effectively a bunch of Dr. Grinspoon x Blueberry types. If you’d like some I’d be glad to send you some, just drop me a PM if you’d like. Welcome to Overgrow @highpreist. Many blessings and much love
