i put myself in the pov of someone who runs a business where the customer is more interested in the free shit you add on and i think its simple supply and demand. youre going to get less quality genetics over time if the people making the seeds are forced to make more of them. or if the culture is simply about creating the most seeds, do you want to live in a world overgrown with bammer weed?

Just figured I would give feedback on seed cellar. While I have tried many banks, this is the only one that really sucked.
I bought a 5 pack of fems, cotton candy kush. i kept them in the fridge in their sealed pack for a few months. none of the seeds were good. if you see my grow log, this is documented as well as the successes I had from other seeds banks across 20+ varieties.
all of seed cellarās seeds produced a small tail, but they die shortly after. i tried planting immediately at the sign of a tail and also tried waiting for it to get longer. it doesnāt get longer. it shrinks up and dies. 3mm max. The first two i planted seemed to try to do something, but got stuck and never surfaced. I did a post mortem after a couple weeks.
After informing seed cellar, they offered me 10% off. I lost 100% of what i bought from them. Itās just 50 bucks, so not going to break the bank if they have bad customer service. I donāt think purchasing from this company is a good idea. I know i wonāt do it again. The bigger issue is they intend to continue to sell these bunk seeds to unsuspecting consumers.
The only way a company like this learns if people stop buying from them.
They are ignoring my messages for now as apparently standing behind the product they sell is just too much for them.
i will post this elsewhere to raise awareness. Seed Cellar had a choice, they said they were only willing to lose 10% on my next purchaseā¦I am thinking they will lose more than that if even a single person decides not to buy from them as a result of me spreading this information.
Iāve bought from well trusted and not well trusted banks with success all around. Only this company was a problem.

Was just checking out Pacific Seeds, thanks for the warning. Think Iāll pass. Been doing this biz for decades and still canāt fathom why there is so much corruption, dishonesty, greed.
For the record, Iāve had excellent service with true, quality material from Kwik Seeds and Mandala. Mandalaās on vacation until Jan. 8. Their service is incredible.
After growing out a couple of pure indica varieties, Iām hooked. Reckon I might soak some Deep Chunk and Afghan Mix.
Grow hard,
Uncle Ben

@OldUncleBen do you think youāll do a log of those GT x Panama? Id love to watch that one!
I cant imagine how many of those Styrofoam pellets they must have floating around and stuck to everything by static hahah. At least thatās the first thing I thought of when I opened my order from them and saw those.

Seedbanks Iāve used and liked outside the US:
- attitude
- herbieās head shop (herbieās seeds. This used to be my go-to and apparently they now have a U.S. location but I just found that out recently)
- hemp depot
-seedsmen
Seedbanks Iāve used and liked in the US:
- Great Lakes genetics (used them numerous times and still run stuff from them. Been running a GG#4 x longbottom leaf cross dragboat Jeff made for years now and a Gg4 x c99 cross motarebel made and auctioned off on their site)
-seedsherenow (not the best prices though) - North Atlantic
- multiverse beans
I also just placed an order with Terpy Seeds. Iāll update after I receive it. But so far I really like them. I had to call because I had an issue where my payment didnāt process correctly and the guy who runs it was super nice on the phone. Very helpful. Seems like a really cool dude. If all goes well they will probably be my new go-to due to prices and how cool the owner was to me on the phone.
They had some awesome sales on some stuff and it looked like their prices on non-sale items were very competitive. Grabbed a pack of Thug Pug peanut butter breath f3 for $50 (10+ reg seeds). A Pack of fresh coast venom breath (garlic snake breath x garlic icing. 10+ reg seeds) on sale for $25 and a 10+ pack of 808 genetics grape stomper OG x crippie on sale for $35.
Had a buddy who ordered gear from Crop King (after I told him not toā¦lol) and although he received his seeds each time I would Not recommend. Out of all the seeds he cracked, he got 1 good plant of white widow and 1 good OG. Definitely not what Iād call white widow, and it grows very stretchy but it was tasty. Every other pack of white widow he ordered was crap. He also got 1 good supposed āOGā plant, but it smelled like apples (nothing like any OG Iāve ever grown). I actually still have a cut of both the widow and āogā (whatever it is. I call it apple og but I have no clue what it actually is)

I just wanted to update this post. Received my seed order from Terpy Seeds today. I ordered on 12/4 but the one pack I ordered was a pre-order that was a little less than a week away from dropping, so that obviously added to the shipping timeline. Still, 12 days is not too bad.
I got a decent amount of freebies (the row on the left is the freebies).
And everything appears to have come in the original breeder packs (afaik, never ordered from any of those 3 breeders before).
I wasnāt aware of some of the controversy on 808 genetics and their crippy before I ordered (I read a bit on them here after ordering). But for the price they were ($35/pack and I got 2 free 5 packs of another 808 strain), itās not like Iām out much if theyāre bunk. And that has nothing to do with Terpy seeds anyway.
