wow, what other bean places have had their pkgs seized feds? Haven't heard if any, but would sure like to know. Thanks

I don't know of any other seedbanks that communicate with their customers as openly as GPS does. PO seizures would seem to be part of the business for all of them. I suspect it happens on occasion to most, but you never hear about it as they change things up to keep the game going.
Similar to credit card processing problems.
The same CC processor GPS was using was also used by several other seedbanks.
Months after GPS stopped using them because of problems/concerns reported by customers, I saw other banks also drop them and stop offering CC as a payment option. They never offered any explanation for why they dropped the payment option.
The difference was that the other seedbanks didn't have forums where customers could openly discuss issues without censorship and communication was basically one-way "push" marketing via Instagram. Not a lot of Mea culpa messaging coming from them.

I’ve never heard of any other domestic seed bank having orders seized. I’m not saying it’s never happened, but it’s not like there aren’t plenty of popular seed banks that people post about regularly.

I’m not sure if GPS is the most popular domestic seed bank, but their SEO is certainly on point. Search anything related to seeds and their site is bound to pop up. I’m sure that gets them more attention than most.

When did GPS stop using a CC processor because of issues? You mean there was a worse one than payofix with their stealing of customer info?

Im just curious, few yrs ago, CO bean guys couldn't sell beans out of state. I guess that law changed with the rec law? Thought they had a seed to sale sort of model they were pushing for. But not sure if it changed.

Nope, other banks were also using payofix. Must have looked like the best of bad options or no options when the seedbanks started using them.

Is GPS still using payofix? Holy crap. Please tell me it's not, after all the complaints and issues :-(
I tried credit with my first order. Things were so sketchy. Finally got it to work, but I switched to cash after that and never looked back.
Just assumed they were gone. I know credit was gone as an option for a while. Looks like it's an option again.

Yeah, GPS is still using payofix.

There was no mea culpa, just Gu coming on here and assuring everyone there was no issue with payofix.

He DMed me at one point when I was complaining about it (he DMs me surprisingly frequently), and said something along the lines of he thought a payofix employee was stealing customer information. That’s still a payofix security flaw! Your typical employee shouldn’t have access to CC information. That info should be encrypted during the whole process.

I ran Jilly Bean once. It was disgusting and smelled like black licorice. I killed it because I had real strains like Banner and Golden Goat in the room. Skunkberry sucked. Purple God Bud sucked. AK-47 had to be killed early because of colorado cannabis mites, lol Overall a quite terrible grow. I'll never buy clones again from anybody, that's for sure. Too much risk, just pop a bean and cut some clones. If you can find a keeper. Alot of strains like critical plus and Critical kush suck.

I've noticed that all critical crosses are trash. Almost all big bud crosses are good smoke like Grandaddy Purple and Pineapple Express. Which is weird, because critical mass is a good strain, too bad crosses with her aren't that great.

Mighty wash and Einstein oil don't kill the bugs very well. Liquid ladybug sucks, too. Fox Farm's Don't bug me worked the best overall. But I had to shut down for 8 months to make sure the bugs were gone. Nothing kills those sap sucking lil bastards.View attachment 4206796

Here is the Pineapple I ran for a couple of years.

Solid and stacked, putrid with onions on the nose this week. Liking this strain a lot, the other pheno isnt as stacked but putting out huge buds.

Above soil, 3x Gunslingers and 3x Lucky7's

But Gu went to his facility, and talked to the guy for hours, and those pictures came directly from him! Fucking full of shit.

Should’ve been obvious too, those plants look nothing like Wedding Cake.

That is really shoddy on gu's part. The pics should be the at least an actual pic of the mom strain with credit to the grower. I mean, there have to be a million wedding cake photos out there....

Nope,I mean really if dude had the Legit cut why would he post a stolen pic from ICMAG Pure Kush thread.Why not post the pic of the cut he had already grown.But to add insult to injury he used the same pic that he used on the fake wedding cake s1s,And people here think all this shit is cool.
