What is your take on Seedsman? One of the biggest sellers with large selection, worldwide shipping. Has also started his line of cheap “knock-off” strains. Any positive/negative experience with them?
I’ve been using Seedsman for the last 3 years or so after Herbies had their semi shutdown (iirc). For their branded seeds, ive grown Blueberry fem, CBD critical mass, Afghani ice, and currently Jack Herer and Galat OG - Some DSLR shots
Had decent success with their freebies, the afghani regular they also (or used to) send i’ve never really dabbled with as I prefer buying fem. Orders always arrived in good packaging, reasonable prices, descriptions/pictures fairly accurate, and like you said, a ton of selection.
I live in the UK so shipping from them is much easier im assuming than worldwide shipping. My go-to seedbank.
I’ve done a few grows for them elsewhere. Their gelato Og took extra 30 days. They ran a comp and the way it ran was a bit off. The actual owner is ok the reps need a bit of training . I had to contact the owner to get prizes from a comp as the rep was being awkward . They sell others seeds for a good price. Their own lines I see a bit of a poor germination sometimes. I doubt they make their own seeds tbh.
I just got my seeds from seedsman…blueberry and jack herer. Beans all popped in about 12 hrs which I personally have never had happen. Took about 10 days to get my order which I totally understand as I live in the states
I personally don’t trust them, though quite a few people have had success with them.
I had an account there forever without ordering so I clicked a forgot password link.
They sent me my password in an email.
This is a major security nono. I should be forced to do a reset because they shouldn’t actually store my password.
Sites should only store the encrypted version of your password, and that is a standard practice over a decade old. If the site gets compromised, then password and email combinations will be readily available and can be tried on sites like banks and paypal and etc.
If they take security shortcuts with passwords, who know where else they are skimping on security.
I cleared all my info out and looked for other seed banks.
A couple of years ago, I used them for three LARGE Orders (+$300). The third one, +$500, got popped by U.S. Customs. I notified them, referenced the Certificate of Confiscation word for word. They RESHIPPED ALL a wee bit more stealthily. ALL arrived safe n sound. I placed one more order before finding seed outlets Stateside. Had a commendable experience myself.
I’m still waiting on separate orders from Seedsman. I’ve been patient due to the 4/20 sale and covid. On vacation this week and hope they have arrived when I get home. I ordered on 4/28. Getting a little worried but I’m not blowing them up or putting them down. If you read there reviews on trust pilot a lot of people are bashing the slow delivery times. I’ll update soon.
I have ordered from them the last year or so - some orders have to be resent - customs issue on my end as I live in a backwards country
I ordered a range of things over the last 3 months …nothing has arrived so I got in touch with them about it , I told them I was happy to wait until the pressure of 4/20 and the pandemic died off a bit . I have had issues with the international delivery times on a few items ( not just seeds ) because of this crisis
Jessica dealt with my concerns really well and the resend is happening now , some things I had ordered aren’t available now , so I made new choices for the same value …really professional customer support and good selections …IMHO there are some gems amongst the fad strains
Have grown their Gelato x OG and really enjoyed the smoke after a short cure ,was easy to grow … I am curious to try it after 4 month cure now I am home again
The last order during 4/20 had me ending up with more freebies than seeds paid for in fact
