Nothing like putting all of your eggs in one basket?

You have not completed a grow using this "breeders" genetics, and as far as I know, there are not any documented completed grows online?

What happens if your first grow with their gear doesnt turn out well? Now you have gone all-in and have a good amount of their gear.

I would make sure to purchase some other gear so that way you have a back-up plan

"All in" in this case is still less than a regular priced pack of seeds + shipping from attitude or the like, hahaha. My "tester" order from attitude wound up being almost $200 all said and done, and it was still less seeds than I got from the $40 I spent on NSN (By a bit, I got 56 beans from the 'tude, and around 70 from NSN). I would agree though that it shouldn't be the only thing you're growing, wasting $40 isn't the end of the world but wasting 4-5 months (Plus electricity if you're growing indoors) is another thing entirely.
 
I have a couple of my beans from Herbie's growing along with my NSN beans to ensure that the crop isn't a total waste baring some unforseen disaster.
 
Some people were complaining about emails, but like a guy a page back said, I also got my response in about 10-15 minutes.

The only concern I have about ordering from the US is there is no international buffer in the event they get busted. Anyone that's ordered from this place is probably going to have their name and address in a spreadsheet/note book/ email etc and all it's going to take is a simple email to your local PD to get a knock and talk if you're in a non-legal state. Another thing is this bank is run by seemingly a very cool person but some of the practices I've seen are very unsafe but done with good intentions. I'm far more nervous about getting on the radar someday than I am about getting ripped off or having bad genetics. I think the latter of the two are a non-issue but once the wrong person finds out about this.... perhaps I'm just paranoid.
 
An "international buffer" is redundant if you've ever had beans get snagged through customs like many have over the years. As for the outta state sells it would have to be worth the local PD's time to kick your door in for a plant or two and let's be honest unless your growin' pounds or sellin' by the ounce you really aren't worth the time and money. You are more likely to get a knock if you piss of a neighbor and they call out of spite if they know about your grow. With the way the local laws are changing regarding the consumption of pot it's not in the states best interest to waste funds on bullshit cases that will go nowhere fast.
 
I wish we had more of a voice in our country. They treat use mj growers as criminals in most states but doctors can prescribe pure poison. We have buried about 12 people at I went to school with all from overdosing on prescription drugs. I've been paying 60 bucks a month for the last three years for eyedrops for glaucoma that has changed my eye color and I can't see to drive at night. Sad but true.

A couple things, first, customs can open your international packages MUCH easier than the post office can open stateside mail, when stuff comes from overseas they can kind of assume it might have contraband, but with stateside mail they really have to presume innocence unless they have VERY strong proof, opening one innocent package would be a HUGE fiasco for the post office but no one bats an eye at customs opening stuff up and re-sealing it if it's innocent. Plus I think importing them from overseas would actually be a worse crime in theory, the same way that it would be worse if they cross state lines. I'm a little spoiled since I am growing legally in the same state she is in, so I don't really worry about it. Regardless, I've said it before and I'll say it again. They go UP the chain, not down it. When dealers get arrested they try to get their supplier, they don't go through their phone trying to bust their customers. Even if she gets busted, they won't be able to go after everyone who's ever placed an order with her, getting warrants for stuff like that, especially when it crosses jurisdictions, requires a LOT more probable cause than one internet purchase. A lot of people don't have stuff shipped to their own houses or their own names, they can't risk kicking down the wrong door over a real flimsy hunch, especially when there are such bigger fish to fry.

I totally agree. The numbers don't lie, either, readily accessible medical cannabis has a profound effect on reducing prescription drug overdoses, which points strongly towards it's ability to effectively replace many of these dangerous medications. "In states with a medical marijuana law, overdose deaths from opioids like morphine, oxycodone and heroin decreased by an average of 20 percent after one year, 25 percent by two years and up to 33 percent by years five and six compared to what would have been expected, according to results in JAMA Internal Medicine" http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/08/25/us-medical-marijuana-deaths-idUSKBN0GP1UJ20140825
 
Lol would be an epic failure if they tried to go after people, think of all the people who order to a friends house where nothing is being grown or the people growing outdoor not even at their house. Way to many variables for that to happen.
 
So I ordered on last week from here was told it would ship today, tried contacting today to see if it shipped no replys and no shipping info, ill post back if i ever make any progress
 
As long as her beans live up to their names/genetics I'll be happy. Wont be starting my next set of beans for at least two weeks here so I'm sure I'll have my order from NSN in by then. Can't really complain when you're getting beans a buck apiece.
 
I have not gotten my beans yet. I ordered on Saturday and just got an email confirmation right now that my ordered was picked up by the post office so they are on the way. I spent $20 bucks which amounts to 3 beans with any of the euro seed suppliers so I'm not sure what you mean by "that much money" unless that was directed at someone else. Oh and for my $20 I have a total of 30 beans coming my way so I'm kinda of excited to see what the freebies are.

Did you use paypal? Because if you did, there may be a tracking order on the Purchases page of your paypal, that's where I found mine.
 
I've got 4 of NSN beans going right now. They are growing really well and germinated very fast. I hope that the genetics are halfway decent. So far so good though. I have a couple of my mango beans from Herbie's growing also and I have to say that one of the mangos is my favorite plant so far.
