Yeah youā€™re right lol

Yeah you probably donā€™t remember but we traded once on Cannetics. This was years ago. It was right before my health issues started. I grabbed some cool stuff from you, Inkognyto, Maddfarmer. It was a cool site while it lasted.

The missus saw all my seeds out of the Tupper a couple days back. ā€œYou canā€™t grow all those before you die. You donā€™t need more.ā€ ā€œSo you want me to pass on getting more seeds?ā€ ā€œWell not exactly. Just try not to spend too much $ā€ ā€œOkā€¦itā€™s mostly postage anymore.ā€

You bet I have. Iā€™ve gotten great breeder freebies, then the GLG freebies on top of that. Really makes the per bean price drop. Havenā€™t bought from GLG in 9 months. They were the only bank I used for 2 years. Got a bag of the freebies Jeff makes, I gave them away before I knew better. Not to be ignored.

LOL just wait till she sees the next package from me haha!
My wife gives me grief all the time to but since i got my own seed fridge/freezer she only gets to see my collection one container at a time LOL I keep it locked so I know she canā€™t peek in there
I too ponder my seed collection and it gets tough making decisions on what to keep in the fridge and what to put up in the freezer for long term. Part of my personal seed collecting mission is to leave a large seed will to my youngest son and nephew so years from now (hopefully) I can leave them a collection of genetics that will be a treasure trove in 20 or 30 years.

Might be worth a fortune to the right people. Thatā€™s what Iā€™m hoping on so my kids can benefit.

A bunch of times. I bought a couple of packs from JBC Seeds recentlyā€¦ Bodhiā€™s Phone Home and Raspberry Hashplantā€¦ specifically so I could secure a pack of ā€œPine Appleā€ after BreederDirect emailed me and said they didnā€™t have a pack for my orderā€¦ so I ordered from JBC to get oneā€¦ and then I ended up securing a second pack from GreatlakesGenetics tooā€¦ so it all worked out.

Bodhi has had some interesting freebiesā€¦ his Purple Lush, Purple Pineapple, Silver Sunshine, More Cowbell Remix, Purple Mana and his Outdoor Skunk Revival packs were all freebies.

A few months ago I placed an order with OregonEliteSeeds tooā€¦ specifically for advertised freebiesā€¦ and they mailed me an open envelope, no tape. my freebie pack missingā€¦ charged me twice for shipping and refused to refund the differenceā€¦ I was talking about it months ago in this threadā€¦ I emailed and spoke to the Seedbank owner who did NOTHING for meā€¦ he started whining about his costā€¦ Idk why his cost is any of my businessā€¦ then he lied through his teeth and was just a general overall jack assā€¦ I tell everyone any chance I getā€¦ stay away from OregonEliteSeedsā€¦ I will never, ever order from there again. OregonEliteSeeds is an awful place to do business with.

Thanks for mentioning them. I hadnā€™t checked Pagoda out before. Although I also blame you for sending me down this current rabbit hole. Iā€™ve spent the last hour reading about all the different male/female plants they use for breeding to figure out what Iā€™d want to order. lol (j/k)

Have you grown any pagoda gear before? Going to look up some reviews now.

I know what you mean EXACTLY. I have not used them, the post above brought Pagoda seeds to my attention. I have been for 1 week trying to decide what to get. Kush male? Which one? Colombian haze? Xmas pure kush? 20$ a pack. Puck ibl. Lebanon landrace and hashplant both. I think Iā€™m gonna spend big there.

Each cultivar gets a label, few silica dessicant beads, small cotton wad, layer of seeds, another bit of cotton and sealed up. I have a spreadsheet tracking everything so I know which vial to pluck for any given seed.

The trays go into a beverage mini fridge with extra mylar bubble insulation and some heat-sealed bags of water for thermal stability.

Sounds complicated but itā€™s easy and I like the individual containers that are easily accessed individually. If I want something the fridge door only has to be open maybe 15 seconds to get the specific vial out.
