Ya Mike's starfighter was the magic sauce in a lot of his earlier crosses, his starfighter is a serious heater. The cube and kimbo kush legendary.

I had a pack of his original Starfighter F2s and yea they were fire. I hope I can find some Starfighter leaning phenos in some of the crosses I've obtained. Gonna search for an original Starfighter cut too. Idk how hard that'll be to track down but I'm gonna try.

Just got an email saying my Devils Drip pack from my Build-a-box order isn't available which sucks because I am 100% positive that I was one of the very first orders. I literally added my packs to cart and checked out seconds after the Build-a-box deal went online.. but I mailed cash. I figured they'd rather have cash.

From what I can piece together.. the credit card orders were fulfilled first and whatever Devils Drip was in stock went out to those guys and even though my order might have been first and I sent cash using 2-Day USPS shipping.. they must have picked up cash orders from the post office today and didn't process my order until a few hours ago.. they emailed me and said.. Sorry but Devils Drip isn't available. Grrrrr. That really sucks!! I wanted that pack so bad. Now I'm waiting to see what they're gonna do. Hopefully they won't force me to take a pack of Goudaberry. I'm sure that strain is fine but it's just not what I wanted.

Having a bad week. Death in the family. Work stress.. and now this. What can I do tho? Not much.

If you ordered fem packs I doubt they would send you regs, my guess would be Popscotti as replacement. I would email them back tho

Well I guess Goudaberry is going to be the replacement. Not really what I wanted but his choices were take what's left in stock or get a refund because "Shit happens." Not really what I wanted to hear.. I even offered paying more for a pack I actually wanted but they would not accommodate me. Oh well.. lesson learned.. never pay via cash when ordering direct from them. They basically said since 75% of cash orders aren't fulfilled, they don't reserve the stock. I've never seen that happen before at any seed bank I've ever used.. but if that's their policy then so be it. I'm not too bitter but I just wish they would have let me send another $50 or $75 and buy a pack that I actually wanted. They did not acknowledge that request however.

At places like JBC seeds or Great Lakes Genetics or Deeply Rooted Seedbank, Irvine Seeds, etc.. pretty much every other place I've ever ordered with cash or money order.. they simply request a USPS tracking number to prove you sent payment and the stock is reserved. When paying direct with EG however, never once was I asked for a tracking number. I am so used to sending a tracking number to seedbanks that I even replied to the EG invoice with a tracking number moment's after I mailed payment and the email bounced back with a message that said.. "Address not found. Your message wasn't delivered to [email protected] because the address couldn't be found, or is unable to receive mail."

So from now on I will strictly use venmo or cashapp, crypto, or another instant means of payment depending on the seedbank.

The reason I don't like using credit cards at seedbanks is simple.. Fraud.

Back in 2010-2011 I was using my credit card at seedbanks like Attitude and another seedbank called The Seed Depot. I noticed one day I had a small international charge from Mexico one day for something low like $0.92 and I just ignored it. I had no idea what it was.. some time went by and a few weeks before Christmas I had a fraudulent charge of $2,000 USD on my credit card right before Christmas. I was livid. Im a single father of 3 children.. 3 little girls I had to buy gifts for.. and here I am getting scrooged by someone overseas. Fortunately after disputing it with the bank I was able to recover the funds eventually and get a new card.. but I swore to myself never to use credit cards with seedbanks again.

I guess Ethereum would be a better choice for payments but fortunately a lot of seedbanks do pull stock with cash orders and others accept venmo and cashapp.

Hopefully my bad experience will enlighten others here who like to purchase seeds. This information could possibly help so you won't have something similar happen to you.

I'm over it but just wish I knew the whole policy regarding cash beforehand because no where on the EG website or in the FAQ does it say if purchasing with cash that your stock won't be held.

Dispute the incident with Build-a-box.. I recently spent $300 at JBC seeds and bought these two packs...

Screenshot_20220808-121713_Gallery.jpg

Rainbow Chip F2
Big League Sherb
Flosee Freebie

To see them now for $50 each on sale at the EG website.. was a little disheartening but.. what are you gonna do? This isn't Amazon, there's no low price guarantee on seeds.

With my $100 Build-a-box package I've got the following on its way..

Goudaberry (replacement for Devils Drip)
Astropop
Tounge Splasher
One Random Pack Chosen by EG

I also put in a $100 order before the Build-a-box deal had started for..

Bakers Dozen
Black Out Bobby

And this week I was able to order the $500 Power Sherb Box from an authorized dealer...

POWER-SHERB-STICKER-PRINT-V2.PNG
power-sherb-final.jpg
Screenshot_20220823-132025_Discord.jpg

So grand total spent.. $1000 plus shipping and taxes. 17ish packs total (figuring Sherbadelic is a pack and a half plus flowsee is a 3ct pack and the Build a box has a bonus 3ct freebie) that breaks down to about $58 a pack. I realize that's a lot of money but I wanted those Power Sherb packs more than anything. I've worked a lot of overtime at work so I can afford it.

Like I was mentioning in a previous post, my clones and keepers were all destroyed when I had literal brain surgery for a tumor a few years ago and all my seed packs, the thousands of seeds I had weren't properly stored when my seed fridge died.. the sepsis blood infection after the brain surgery nearly killed me. I was bed ridden for months in the hospital, had to learn to walk all over again. Nothing regarding cannabis or my seeds or clones mattered at the time.. simply surviving and being able to be here for my children were my only real concern. I've raised 3 little girls by myself since infancy. Their mother had developed schizophrenia and died of an overdose at a young age leaving me with a whole lot of responsibility. Between the neurological trauma and the death of my kids mother.. the past 10 years have been full of challenges to say the least.

So even after all that.. in a way I'm starting over from scratch, rebuilding my genetics library. Buying a new home soon too. The fact that I was able to keep my job and not get fired after missing months of work when I had that whole tumor/health ordeal was amazing. I thought for sure they were going to fire me. Fortunately the corporate entity I work for was compassionate enough to help me keep my job and made several accommodations for me to keep being able to work. For that I felt blessed. I'm mostly recovered now and ready to get back in the saddle so to speak.

Besides these 17 Exotic Genetix packs, I picked up close to 30 packs from Bodhi last month and a pack of Pure Michigan F2s from 3rd Coast Genetics. I bought a new fridge, some glass mason jars, some desiccant, vials.. everything I need for seed storage.

Soon I'll be buying a new home and I'll have a buddy come over and do the electrical.. mount a lighting controller and hang up some 240v fixtures. The future is bright.

That's weak. Don't see why they don't send you Popscotti. Sucks but you did get the Astro Pop, I would have loved to have gotten that.

How do you normally store your seeds?

Typically in individually labeled geocache vials labeled and packed with desiccant beads and then in a sealed mason jar kept in the fridge.

Alltho i may just leave these new sealed packs intact and put plenty of desiccant in the jar itself and also place in the fridge.

I have 10-12 year old seeds that I have been germinating lately that have not been properly stored. They were for a few years until I had that whole neurological issue I was describing. I found that Botanicare Liquid Karma helps the germination process on old seeds. I was getting pitiful 5-10% germ rates on these old seeds until I introduced Liquid Karma and my germ rates jumped much higher to around 40%.. on 10 year or older seeds that have been sitting in a toolbox for years after my fridge broke down.

Right now I have some old ass beans that successfully germinated & are vegging.. Bodhi Blackberry Lotus, Hazeman Cocoa Puff, TGA Plushberry, Guava 13 x Black Rose.. and a couple other gems going from that old seed stash.

Deep in that old stash I have some Exotic Genetix Supernatural, Fire Alien Black, and Kimbo Kush. When I buy my new home I plan on digging into some of these gems.

But why tho over something simple like that. I mean you can't accommodate everyone. Like when a customer comes up for the fith time wanting a free preroll cause they last kept canoeing. Plus virtual cash beats mail in orders cause they had cash in hand to them before you're cash arrived. I understand the complaints 100%%
What other seed banks you gonna tell people to go to.
