Pacific seedbank?

Here is a picture of a freshly trimmed bud. ACDC. 100% organic, grown in soil Black Gold. I used Growth Science Organic line and followed their feeding chart. I also used Reverse Osmosis water. I like doing a wet trim and than hang drying it. Certainly not the most impressive, but it is good. Im pretty sure if you look up the thread you will see other pictures throughout the grow that I posted.

What is Cinex?

So, I was trying to write a review on their website, and it turns out I cannot write a review on Pacific Seed Banks, website. I went to the website got in touch with their "Chat" and they said I had to be logged in to write a review. I logged in, and tried to write a review. Could not. I talked to their staff, and they said I could only write reviews on the strains I got. I explained I was trying to do that. Than they came back at me yet again with, oh, you needed to be logged in when you made the purchase. You wont be able to write a review if you weren't logged in when you made a purchase.

This company is awful. I grew ACDC and Blue Dream, the outcome looks identical. The only thing they actually did right is have feminized seeds. They are likely a monsontos company in disguise. Be aware. do not purchase anything from these guys.

Damn so you think it might be the same strain in everyone of their seeds? Did you smoke any your buds yet?

Great idea! The 3 "Cinex" probably aren't real Cinex. I have found photos of the real leaf structure and they don't match. I just hope they are a good smoke. The White Widow seems like the real deal. Flipping tomorrow so I will know in 55 to 60 days.

Never dealing with this vendor again.

How are your plants coming along?

My yield from the Cinex came in at around 2 pounds. The smoke is getting rave reviews from friends and family. I enjoy the smoke as well, but if I we're going to purchase more seeds I would go elsewhere.

The White Widow also looked good, but the smoke (to me) is weak and I like the Cinex much better. The yield on the only plant of three seeds that grew, was about 8 ounces, so not bad.

I have doubts about the family history of these seeds, lol and will be returning to Seedsman or another reputable vendor.

Thanks for the update! Glad to hear one your plants was dank!

My plants are doing great most about 6 feet and very bushy. Started flowering about 2 weeks ago. I hope the Kosher Kush is the real deal. Because my main reason for growing this year was so I could grow some heavy amber indicas for my insomnia. I just hope at least most of the plants can put me to sleep. Otherwise all my work would basically be wasted.

Did you grow outside or inside?

And yes I agree! I don't want to take a chance with subpar or knockoff genetics again. I will be buying from seedman and want to buy Herijuana from the real sannie breeder next year.

Well shit! I may have to go back and get more of the "Cinex". It is great stuff, whether or not it is Cinex. My friends want more and it was and is wonderful stuff.

I will let you know. Pacific seems a bit shady but I might risk it again. Lol

That is my Problem as well Mauricem00. What I got and what it might really actually be are likely different. It is safe to say that the seeds Pacific Seed Bank are sending are good. My problem with them is that they are not what they say they are. I got ACDC and Cannatonic expecting to get strains that are High CBD because I am growing medicine. Based off what you say, and what I see in the strains I am growing... There is no telling if they are really that strain. I suppose I need to get my weed tested. But like you, I dont think it is 30-1 CBD to THC. If I ever get it tested I will let you all know. The bud looks pretty good though. This is some Skywalker OG

I agree. Although the original customer service was kind enough to replace the order that was stolen from my mailbox, we will see how my refund request goes because all of my plants are different. I ordered ACDC, AK47 and Shark, 3 of each. 8 germinated, all female. But no two plants are identical, so I'm not sure what I have at all. I'm outdoor and all are in full cola glory and obviously ALL different. There are some that are somewhat close, but nothing indentical.

3 Sharks, with 2 "similar" but flowering in different stages and structure definitely different. One looks more like an AK47 but flowering 2 weeks behind. One will probably mature in a week. The second is 10-14 days out and the last is 2-3 weeks. The first 2 are sort of similar but #2 definitely has much more sugar leaf.

2 AK47 completely different, one a sativa the other an indica. One ready to harvest within the week, the other probably 2 weeks out or more.

2 ACDC, both appear to sativa, but different flower cycle and plant structure.

I'm pretty sure that I just got a "handful" of seeds, hence my refund request. I paid with credit card, so I'm not worried about that, but I'll have to pay for testing now because I've got no idea what I have. I've exhaustively searched for images but 98% posts pictures of their buds and the very few plant pix suck. Anybody have any nice mid to late flowering plant pix?
 
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU..... just ordered from them. I think they are just making money off new guys like me who are hyped and excited. Bummer... I felt fishy after seeing a couple things that didn't match up but my eagerness for a particular strain got the best of me. C'est la vie Y'all. Gonna take my ball and go to seedsman's fair game.

At least they're seeds. So I am thankful for that and it will be a surprise I guess. I pride myself in being highly adaptable anyway. Peace.
 
I ordered from Pacific this spring. Plants are now in full COLA and about to be harvested (outdoor grow), but I'm not sure what I got.

I ordered both AC/DC and Girl Scout Cookies. The plants that are supposed to be AC/DC plants could actually be AC/DC, but the cookies certainly are not. The seeds sold to me as GCS are a pure sativa (I've grown cookies before and they are always short, fat, bushy Indica-like plants). I have my doubts about the AC/DC as well.

I suspect Pacific has big bags of seeds that they slap labels on and sell. I'm not wasting the time & money on any more "maybe" seed shops.

Short story is that I'm staying with Seedsman and ILGM*.

*My ILGM cookies are now filled out with breathtakingly beautiful, fat, plump COLAS that are full of sugary-resin that's as thick as pine pitch.
 
I grew out Amnesia Lemon, Skywalker OG, Pineapple Chunk, Lambsbread, UK Cheese from them.. all of them were as advertised, wasn't a fan of their Cheese but the rest were quality.

A friend aquired sum cuttings from a friend who payed 5gs for one Cinex cutting up in Portland (id imagine when it was still a flavor of the month) like crazy excentric people often do. Do these pics look legit? Most of my research points 2 yes. They were grown in 100 g pots, most were starting to flower mostly due to the couple hours difference in lighting between the veg room and the shade cloth on the black box which is what i use to acclimate the rest of my clones. I cant help to wonder if there was some ruderalis in it, it was all very short an stalky with 3 leaf feeders that seem to blend right in with the sugarleaf towards the top of the colas. I actually got them to revert a few weeks barely long enough to establish roots by putting them out the last week in june and pinching any bud sites i saw, and ripping handfuls of larf from the centers. i only got a handful to actually fill those 100g pots out the biggest being almost 3 lbs trimmed and barely 4 ft tall. Althought most were only 2 ft tall they all had 6 to 8 football sized colas on plants you would think could produce maybe 2 zips tops. They all pulled atleast a lb! They were all bud! Buds so big i couldnt squeeze them back through the cages! The scent has a hint of sativa but is very unique people love it and the one thing everyone who tries it says they get high af and hella munchies. Im only assuming these are legit cus they come from an established OR grower and seeing as how Cinex is a WA strain the first places it would appear would be seattle and portland seeing as how strains seem to travel the i5 corridor for decades now from BC to nor cal and onto LA where they really seemed to catch fire. I remember hearing stories about when OG kush was all the rage and zips were going for 12?! Sounds crazy but everyone wants the latest everything down there and money is no object. I woulda thought it was bs when the person said they payed 5gs for a cutting, had i not seen it with bananimal cookies in LA when i first got out here. Would be interested to see a map of famous strains and their origins. Love a strain with a good story! like they dont all have one..
 
I ordered from them a couple of times and got some really good smoke, but the strains definitely didn’t match what I received. Ordered Tangerine Dream and 3 out of 5 germinated. Not only that, 1 was an Indica and the other 2 were some type of Sativa but not what I ordered. The second strain was Super Silver Haze and the 3 that I popped all germinated and grew well. However, I have had SSH several times and I don’t think that’s what I have. It’s dank and I’ll take it, but I wish I would have received what I ordered. I have never tried anyone else so maybe I’ll give seedsman a try. I thought I saw a while back that they were scammers though? Let me know if I’m on the wrong path..
 
i did some snooping to see if this bank was legit. well, based on my findingings i wouldn]t touch them with a 10 foot pole !

with that said i notice here so many folks see to be new school types that have mucho extra cash to spend without properly vetting the folks they buy from. i also see so many folks here act as if receiving and order makes the company legit even though you folks haven't grown out the seeds and verified the genetics at all.

don't get me wrong it's good you get something in the mail in a timely fashion but that's only the 1st step and the end results is what matters the most all damn day imho.
you have folks recommending to others a bank/breeder solely based on reception of seeds. That is stupid as fuck and if shit doesn't work out don't get mad cause it's your own fault for buying based only on shipping reception.

i often use this site to verify/check a strain/breeder/vendor. i use others as well and then make a decision based on consensus if it exists as well as common sense/practicality too. it's not that hard to do yet this type of behaviour goes on here and elsewhere as if those who do it can't read or google some basics. smdh lol

Ya they are a joke I bought over 800$ in seeds and 9 out of 10 banana kush didn't germinate and the one that did started to flower in an 18/6 veg cycle. So obviously it was an auto so they cant fill an order right. Their seeds ate super dark and or green and junk. I also ordered cherry pie purple kush and white widow. 3 of the cherry pie didnt germinate and 2 of the purple I havent opened the white widow. They have absolutely terrible customer service and isabella is the person who I talked to. I have sent two money orders for shipping but it wasnt until the second one was sent and me sending multiple emails daily. I got a received payment verification a n.v d then a shipping verification 8 days ago. I have received nothing and will not rest until I get this figured out and they could start by not only replacing my seeds but give me some feminized free for all the damn trouble. I really hope other people dont even but from these people because once ur money is in their hand u dont know what ur going to get and if it's wrong they avoid u until the end and then it seems to me lie. Super pathetic..
