Glad to hear about the Vanilla Kush. I think you'll like it, I have some jarred up. I have this one pheno thats nice and low odor, and a fairly easy grow, nice pistil to leaf ratio. With some fine tuning def. can be a reg thing for me. I hope for. you too

It does look like a 70day strain though and not the recc. 60-65

Thanks for the heads up on that longer photo period! :) I heard good things about this kush.

Great news!

I'm sort of interested in the Vanilla Kush. But, barneys farm you know :lol: :(

I'm honestly interested: What was your reasoning for the vanilla kush, what did you hear about it?


Serapis, too bad you don't use PM's I've been keeping a few people updated like every week-2 with the messages

I had to turn PMs off because I was getting overwhelmed with requests for help. I don't mind browsing around and helping with what i know, but I can't diagnose every problem with insects, nutes, environment, etc that some people think I can. I know my basics, a little advanced stuff, and that's it. I'm here to learn too and the PMs were just taking up too much of my fun time on RIU.

The Vanilla Kush came in 2nd in the 2009 Cannabis Cup. It is highly prized for it's hints of lavender and vanilla. It is a beautiful indica dominant species that packs a punch. This strain is good for pain relief and relief from anxiety and stress. It is a favorite Kush of many. That is what i heard. I actually bought the seeds before I learned of the problems with TD. I'm glad I did, or otherwise, I might have never tried these seeds.

If i could change the title of the thread, I would, lol.... but who knows, maybe these seeds are just waiting on a new union contract.... I'm giving em 4 more days to show me something.

Well Serapis hate hear about the TD but you arent alone there plenty of growers got ripped by the tude we should actually unite and start a boycott against them get the message across that they still need to be reputable and just because we are inconvenienced by ignorant laws doesnt mean they can rip people off. Time for them to rememer that without us they have no business or future classic case of getting to big and full of themselves. On another note i am glad i decided to take some cuttings and cloned the TD hope i get them to take so i can keep one going as a mother plant.If it were possible i would offer you a couple clones just a kind gesture I know but the thought counts if i ever invest in a tissue culture kit who knows.I sincerely want to stick it to the tude though give them a taste of real "attitude"

Hey just ondering. I watched for the TD to finally go on sale and when they did i was broke and by the time i was ready to order seeds they were sold out. So i got some jorges diamonds #1 dutch passion. Anyways just a couple weeks ago i saw that they were back at the tude. So my question is did maybe the first batch have problems and get pulled and later replaced. I really really really hope so am so pissed to see all the bad reviews after being so stoked to get these seeds. Will germ one and see if it goes.

I only buy from Seedsman.com and they missed out on the first batch of seeds.
When they finally got some they only had packs of 10 so I waited until they got some 5 packs, so I definitely didn't get the first batch to hit the market.
I've got 2 seedlings out of 2 so far, one took 3 days to crack, the other under 2.
I think that the first batch may have been dodgy - and someone probably got an ass-kicking as it has seriously impacted on the demand for the seeds for the "cup winning" strain.
A lot of money was wasted in winning the cup only to send out dodgy seeds.

thats what i am counting on. I have had a very high germ rate so far on everything ive tried. I dont want to pat my own back but if i cant get these to grow i wont ever buy another bf product. There are far to many great breeders with awesome genetics to waste time and money on garbage. I love nirvana and dutch passion myself.

Good luck with those seeds..... After my spanking, I'll probably never buy Barney's Farm again, unless Nirvana carries them. At least they guarantee germination, unlike the 'Tude that acts like 'germinate' is a four letter word... Regardless of what their disclaimer says, they know, DAMN well, that the majority of their seeds are being germinated, not stored away for years while we wait for changes in the law. That legal disclaimer is pathetic, it shields them from responsibility of the product the peddle.

You've never dealt with Attitude or read their terms of service....



I know who sang the song, lol, I was wondering what it was doing in the thread. As a closing statement, it woulda been fine, but to just drop in and say something like "too bad, so sad" and leave seemed kinda rude. I was just wondering what, if anything, you were contributing to the discussion at hand....

If you have dealt with Attitude in the past (I believe you have), then you know that their policy is that they only sell the seeds as souvenirs and do not guarantee their germination rate either. Anyone that contacts Attitude with a germination rate issue is shunned. You know that. They are also now requiring 'crushed' seeds to be returned. So your suggestion that I try to talk to Attitude was not very helpful.

As to the second part of the quote, you lifted that from a response that was, I thought, clearly directed at the dude quoting the Rolling Stones tune, not you.

well there is a big difference between the tude and nirvana. Nirvana is a breeder they dont sell other peoples seeds they make their own strains. The tude is just a dealer not a breeder they sell whatever they can make a buck on. just sayin

Wal*mart doesn't manufacture video games, but if one is bought and doesn't work, they'll replace it and charge back the vendor or supplier. Attitude could just as easily replace bad beans, especially when there are threads all over the internet about the quality issues of these seeds. Just as you have the right to defend Attitude's practices, I have a right to not shop there. I also have the right to be able to post about my bad experience and being ripped off for $60.

I know that the Tude is only a reseller.... Thanks for the education. They should still be concerned with the quality of what they are selling and be willing to right a bad deal to prevent the loss of customers. I'm no big time seed buyer, but I have spent hundreds of dollars with them on several orders. I don't blame them for Barney's issues with quality, I blame the Tude for not standing behind what they sell.

I admit the system is flawed, and I'm not trying to defend the Attitude by any stretch, but seeds are a bit different than a production item like video games. Obviously, you know what you're doing, but some jack leg that buys seeds and tries to germ them in rubbing alcohol or something stupid might claim they got bad seeds. How can it be proven that the seeds are bad and not the grower? People are stupid. I read a review on a pH kit where the guy gave them one star because he said putting the tiniest of drops of UP in the test bottle would raise the pH significantly. The jackass was trying to adjust the pH in the test bottle, not the source. I do think they could at least do you like before with the shirt and say 'on your next order we'll give you a discount' kind of deal. Something. In the end, they know we have no recourse. I saw on Cops once where a girl called the police because she got scammed trying to buy crack. It did not end well for her.

What Attitude does regarding their sales of dodgy seeds reflects their "attitude" towards their customers.
Presumably they do monitor the number of complaints that they get and, presumably they know which seeds are attracting more than the "normal" number of complaints.
They choose to respond exactly how they respond, and customers will also choose how to respond to the lack of support.

Luckily we have open forums where our experiences with seed vendors can be shared. I haven't bought from Attitude and I am very unlikely to change from my supplier.

Attitude don't offer anything special, except a wide choice of genetics ... and none of the genetics are theirs. Each and every strain that Attitude sells can be found elsewhere, often from vendors that care about building and maintaining a loyal customer base.
I would rather pay a dollar or two extra and deal with a vendor that will listen to (and act on) complaints from multiple growers.

It doesn't take much for a good reputation to be ruined, and Attitudes reputation is definitely looking dodgy.

sorry to hear about the td from barneys serapis. I guess I'm going to stay away from that one. And as far as the tude sending bad seeds, imo I guess it happens to all of us that have ordered before sooner or later. So far I from all the orders/seeds I've bought from tude I have only had one that did not sprout. Same thing with barneys seeds, I'm a fan of their seeds, and my last batch I had twoo bluecheese with excellent result and before that I had one lsd and 6 red dragons with excellent results as well. I guess shit happens bro. And stay away from barneys td for sure. And good luck with the ne girls bro. Be positve......

very well said. i wasnt triing to defend the tude just sayin. As far as them not backing what they sell that sucks. They sell sooooo many breeders it has to be a nightmare over there. Good luck. As far as my seeds go i started to panic over all the bad talk so i started one seed. Soaked it for over 24 hours and its been in papertowels for just over another 24 and no sign of life. . .Shit
