Has anyone ever ordered from herbies seeds. i was just looking at their site and they are giving some good deals with fem seeds free. just checking to see if any of you have ever used them and how did it go and where the seeds any good. I live is georgia so i need to make sure which ever company i go with is on the up and up if you get my drift...

I've ordered from Herbies. Seeds arrived about a week later and were sealed in the original breeder pack.

I would not recommend herbies in any way... I have ordered seeds for many years, have ordered from many companies including herbies and to be honest my worst experience has been from herbies.

I recently did an order with them about 2 months ago, was wanting to try a new auto strain "Think Different" from DP, Herbies had it so I thought I would give it a try... got the seeds and a couple freebies, there were 7 of the Think Different. I started germinating 5 of the seven at the same time using same method I always germinate seeds in and may I state have honestly had 95%+ germination rate. I soak seeds in a cup of water for 18-36 hours, basically till the seed sinks and cracks open.... well in 36 hours not 1 had cracked, all 5 sank though in about 20 hours, I then take the seeds and place them in damp paper towels and place in a tin I have and close it up, normally within 36 hours I have 1/4" tails and ready to be placed. after 36 hour mark I put them in the towels and in the tin... 2 days later not 1 sprouted. I took the other 2 seeds and started germinating them same way... I ended up with 1 seeds that germinated.

With my experience with seed banks, I decided to contact herbies and let them know about the 6 failures, though 2 previous orders of seeds form them and actually had decent sucess rate with their seeds, I let them know about the previous success and stated my order #'s from the other orders and then briefly explained. I received an Email from Herbie stated he was sorry to hear about the failure and he would make it up on my next order, to just mention the order #.... so I placed an order a few weeks later for some Himalayan Gold seeds.... well my "make up seeds" were some random junk freebie auto's... nothing in the way of what I ordered, or even had ordered previously. I sent an email to herbies and 2 days later got a reply that basically said, "We don't have offer any replacements we do that just to try and make things better, and basically said if i wasnt clear on their guarantee or lack there of, that I shouldn't order from them in the future"

My main seed banks are www.marijuana-seeds.nl & attitude. both of these seed banks have been EXCELLENT and would not recommend herbies in any way.

I've been ordering from them for years and have never had any troubles with them. Critical Jack and La Musa was sweet and tasty and had no problem germing them in a paper towel on my last order. Their Super stealth is nice if you are paranoid and it doesn't cost any extra.

Well in all fairness to herbie, ur not suppose to germ in just water, I use a damp paper towl and then fold the seeds in it, then I take the Wet folded towl and stick it in a sandwich bag (do not seal the bag) I then stick the bag on top of my fridge. Works 99% , now if u had ordered 7 seeds and not one germinated then idk man that's kinda crazy, and then he sent u a few freebies and that didn't satisfy you either, I'm not saying its 100% your fault but I mean come on man 7 seeds? Not one popped? Did u drown them??

I'd say go ahead and order the seeds man, if ur not comfortable with herbie then I'd highly recommend going with nirvana seedbank! You will not be disappointed especially if u order the ice!!!

In all fairness, germination issues should be taken up with the breeder, not necessarily the seedbank. Places like Herbie's and the Attitude are just middlemen. Now, if i is known old stock or they show up crushed, then it totally falls on the seedbank. Understand your frustration though.
