Do DNA seeds suck?

Has anybody used DNA seeds? I just recently put 10 DNA LA Confidential seeds in the dirt and had 0 seeds pop. I had at the same time put 10 White Russian, 10 Chronic, 10 THC Bomb and 5 White Widow and had 1 seed fail out of all of them using the same method. What the fuck is up with that. I contacted DNA and stated that I received 10 seeds that must have been old or something, and asked for a 3 pack as a replacement if they could, and never received a reply, not even a sorry about that. I was wondering if anybody has had that failure rate using their shit seeds, or am I just cursed. By the way, THC Bomb is a beauty of a plant. Buy it. Peace

Not the king of growing by any means necessary, but I've used there gear in every run I do. I'm still strain hunting for that special plant, and whether if it's their Holy Grail Kush, anything crossed with LA Confidential, or there Og 18 crosses, they all have never let me down, especially Holy Grail Kush...4 ft tall with pinching and has 15 tops of straight gas and pine. I guess in your case it so happens that your first experience was your worst experience. There emails hardly get answered at least to my knowledge. But they do have social pages that they frequent visit, try there and hope for the best. Peace

Ive noticed with DNA they definitely aren't the most user friendly to pop. every pack there is atleast 1 or 2 that wont respond to anything and usualy its only 50% ez pop. ive had to razor blade and split several DNA seeds in comparison to say Bodhi or 303. both bodhi and 303 were about growing there second set of leaves after 48 hours. some serious germing.

DNA isnt the worst by any means but ive come to expect a couple not to make it when i germ them.. chances are if you just planted the,m they didnt like it.

i give 24 hours in water. 24-48 hours in paper towel (Try to get b4 they grow into the towel) then i plant the tail.

DNA seeds ive noticed are very small too. idk if that has anything to do with it or not.

all in all DNA is "Alright" when it comes to germ

They are in my top three breeders (I include Reserva Privada as they are the same)! Never had one issue with any of their seeds and I have grown out 8 of their strains. Chocolope was a crowd pleaser and Sour Cream is a huge producer.

Bought a 5 pack of Lemon OG Kush last year, took one bean and soaked it. Cracked in about 48 hrs. It made it and grew into a nice POTENT plant. Ran a few cuttings of it, really nice bud, lemony and potent.

I got a reg LA Confidential as a DNA freebie and it turned out male. So I pollinated my girl scout cookies intentionally with it and now have a hundred or so Confidential Cookies seeds. Popping the first five of that cross now. Should be tasty.

I just popped a freebie DNA that was a feminized lemon skunk variety, recvd 3 years ago and was just as viable as any fresh seeds but then again those fat indica seeds were always a bit easier to pop than the sativas. DNA seems to breed for production and ease of growing...never have had any problems with their genetics.

RP OG kush is the shit as well. I got this as a freebie and I was super satisfied with the taste of these buds.

The only DNA I have grown out has been LA Conf.
No problem with germinating seeds...5 out of 5 sprouted easily, just stuck them in soil.
Nice plants, fairly uniform.
I like the smoke, but it did not live up to my expectations.

I enjoy Reserva P's OG#18 and the Headband and Kandy Kush more for the high and flavor.
