Seed Banks - Who can we trust?

@FieldEffect

I really appreciate that, but I’ll just keep bugging him. I truly don’t understand what the issue is. I haven’t been a jerk to him or pestered him. Maha said I could get them directly from him, but the odds of them making it into the US are slim or I’d do it. Johnny P. said he felt like the guy was ghosting him when he placed an order with them, but he got his gear eventually.

Customer service is everything to me. I love NASC and DCSE. I never have issues with them. If an order gets mixed up (which has only happened once) they fix it right away.

Speaking of mix ups I recently ordered two packs from Speakeasy. Package arrived with only pack. Emailed them and they promptly took care of me. Second pack arrived with some nice freebies.

I’ll continue to support them and recommend them to people.

@krooked I appreciate people such as yourself that help me feel better about my seed addiction :joy:

Why do you feel that it’s impossible to get seeds sent to you from Europe?
I’ve had 3 different orders from 2 different countries make it with zero issues.

ooooo stay away from me, as you can see im an enabler :smiling_imp:

I wouldn’t say it’s impossible, but I look at it like this, I’m already out $210, do I want to spend it again just for them to be snagged coming through customs? Not really. We used to get all of our gear through the Bou and Attitude, but it doesn’t seem worth the risk anymore.

id use caution with:

Soak n beans
Oregon elite

placed an order with both a couple weeks ago, no shipment and no replies to emails

Oregon Elite was very reliable at one time, it sucks to hear how he’s gone south.

same here. have used him a handful of times over the years and had zero issues.

Soak n beans on the other had is new to me, so i placed a cheap test order and they cant seem to be able to fulfill or communicate

I haven’t seen any mention of Neptune seeds or Seedsherenow.
Driving through Southern Oregon last year Seedsherenow have billboards on I-5.

How about seedsofhorror.com
Treestarsseedbank.com
La Paz International Seed Bank – GWSBTV

I’ve had good luck with Seedsherenow with several orders. I just don’t care for having Mesh, Zelle or Cash app accounts. I have them, I’d just rather use a CC directly.

I’ve placed numerous orders with Seedsherenow and Neptune. Solid, but overpriced from my experience.
I prefer CC as well
It’s hard to hide my seed purchases from the wife when it’s pulled from the account. :sweat_smile:

LFTD wants digital currency or cash.
I’m not up for either.

Ditto. I get busted all the time because she gets the mail.

If I had a dollar for every time I said I was done buying seeds, I’d have enough to buy several more packs of seeds :slight_smile:

Ive never trusted neptune, especially with their 5-10 different websites with the exact same inventory and prices, just never sat right with me

treestar has had a lot issues over the years, are they even around anymore?

horror is a local seedbank by me but always overpriced and have never been interested in their selectrion, most of the time you can find same things it on breeders direct for cheaper (BDSCCREW20)

seedsherenow is okay. i just dont use them personally

I steered clear of them after reading some bad reviews, but I have had no experience with them.

So far I’ve had no issues and gotten alot of freebies that I didn’t expect , I’ve only ordered from the 2 breeders ,

I’m glad to hear you had a good experience with Well Grown Seeds @Rhai88. I’d read a lot of positive reviews from folk about them and decided to give them a try myself last year. Got a great deal on some MMS packs and they included some nice freebies too!

Unfortunately though, as tends to happen in my part of the world, our friendly Australian border security discovered my precious babies and saved me the effort of growing them by destroying them for me :pensive:. I’d had a good run until then, so it was bound to happen sooner or later. A bit sad, but nothing to get over excited about.

Next day I saw WGS post on instagram listing all the countries they ship to and I commented that I’d just lost a package. That’s when things got weird, they deleted my post and messaged me saying to email them not post on insta. I thought that was a bit odd as it wasn’t in anyway an angry or attacking post. Literally “I’m not so lucky, Aus customs just nabbed mine :(”

So I emailed them and made it clear that I was in no way blaming anybody or asking for anything. I only mentioned it to let them know that they might have some issues getting seeds to Aus customers. Their response was to ignore my email, block me on instagram and delete my WGS account :grimacing:

Anyway, my point isn’t to throw shade at anyone. I genuinely am happy to hear that they are indeed the good people I was led to believe they are and that it wasn’t a lack of judgement on my part.

I guess they were just having a bad day, we’ve all been there :man_shrugging:.

Everything worked out in the end, I found what I was after at “Luscious Genetics” and happy to say the eagle landed safe and sound, which makes me a Happy_Barry :wink:
