U gonna waste more on food soil and lighting the grow lol a simple google search of crop king would have landed you some great reviews im sure. Lol
Nah m8, I got fox farm soil on sale for $10 a bag and im growing outdoors, as for nutrients I don’t gotta feed first 2-3 weeks so depending on how they look I’ll make my decision then

Well i will leave you with advise

Autos are required to be planted in the 'final containers first'..wouldnt go any less then 10gal container..might need more 10doller fox farm bags.

Have fun..safer outside..im just trying to not make you waste 2months of your time inside on trash dude. At the very least Please report back so other people google sesrching crop king can see more results..so we have more reviews.

Im an avid auto grower..
I agree plant the auto in whatever you intend to finish it in..but a 10 gal pot is overkill in my opinion...Autos will generally start flowering in 3-5 weeks whether you want them to
Flower or not...5 gallon pot size is
probably more appropriate even going down to 2-3 gal...
Im just trying to clarify ideal vs practical cheers

Honestly I'd ride em out too. I've grown plenty of "bad genetics". It's still weed, and you don't really know it's bad until you grow the good stuff. And at least you'll get the experience and the euphoria of growing your own.

Then next time buy better seeds

Any recommendations on seed banks?

Iam Clearly NOT an auto grower lol..a buddy of mine is..i just cant..i like my males and females..i knew about the plant in final container thing and i run 10s in my main keeper room so i said that based on habit lol

keep in mind right now that the mail service is super slow right now. Mine were shipped from Montreal and coming to Nova Scotia which is only a couple of provinces away and it’s taken 2 business weeks. I work for Canada Post and everything is backed up right now.

No crop king is terrible.. everything they have is terrible. I wiuldnt waste the resources ..id flush those down the drain or plop em outside
HMMM, well people seem to have some strong feelings about Crop King Seeds. I have only grown 2 plants so far and both are Autos from Crop King Seeds. The first was a free Northern Lights and my first ever plant. I tried the free seed first just to see if I could grow a plant. I grew in Coco so every aspect is totally new from the lights to the medium to growing plants. She was chopped recently and when dried produced 3.5 oz which I thought was ok for my first attempt. I am currently growing an Early Miss also from Crop King and she seems to be going fine. Now I am no expert, barely a newbie with only one plant grown from start to finish but I will say the plants seem fine to me. Take that with a grain of salt since I have nothing to compare it with. The harvested one produced a good product which should only get better once it finishes curing. I made 2 orders from Crop King and both showed up resonably quickly with freebies in each package. I was planning to pop 4 plants outside behind my cottage and doing 2 indoor runs of 4 plants during winter fall. Sadly with travel bans and pandemic issues that did not happen and it is too late now as winter comes too early here. We are stuck with 4 plants per household here in Canada so this start was more a working the kinks out process. After my Early Miss comes down I will likely be waiting until September to start up again. Here is a pic of the finished Norther Lights, a bud from it and the new Early Miss. From my perspective definatly not a waste of resources but as I say, it could just be that I don't know what I am talking about. I will be checking out some of the other seed banks mentioned here as we all want to start with the best materials.

A quick google search or a search on here of crop king have more bad then good..sesrch thug pug and youd find almost all positive.. Sure you may actually get somethig ok..or 'keeper' with cropking but you would be lucky..and even moreso if its actually what they say it is :eyesmoke:

And autos from crop king..i couldnt imagine the offspring. I guess if there cheap and grown outside who cares tho.

I just checked out the thug pug site, it shows some great looking stuff. I am always concerned about shipping such things from the USA to Canada, our CBSA can be a real interesting group, but they say they ship world wide. I went with Crop King as they were in Canada and saw some great reviews all over the net but with my limited experience I may just be the lucky guy. I will concede to the knowledge of those with practical experience but hope my lucky status continues as I use up the seeds I have purchased from them. I think the biggest issue most of us face, at least in Canada, is the low plant count you are allowed. It is hard to get practical experience when you are only allowed 4 plants at a time. I would love to be able to throw out 10 or 20 plants to test different lights, nutes and seed companies but that is just not feasible so I have to draw on others knowledge and experience. Thanks so much for responding to my note, thug pug is now on the list for the future. Now that I am gaining more experience and finding places with more actul growers I hope to expand my knowledge. Many thanks.

Im in canada and have ordered seeds for over 10yrs from UK and US. Never had anything taken. I did have a massive amount of seeds (100pks) get stopped at cbsa in bc recently and was opened..they opened 2 pks of different strains..seen seeds and put them back and got every single pack. The only thing i lost was 1 bean when they closed the case on the breeders pack it crushed 1. Of your ordering 1 or 2 packs i wouldnt be to concerned about cbsa tbh.

And about the plant limits..it only matters if your caught..just be careful and smart..best spot to do lots is outdoors.. with indoor finding a keeper would be hard if your keeping it to 4 plants..thats like running 2 fem seeds and taking 1 cut of each and flowering them out and repeat. That would take forever just to find 4 keeper plants. Id say 4 flowering and 10 in veg would be ok to me ..:eyesmoke:

Id suggest cannarado for cheap really nice fems before thug pug if plant limits are an issue
