Nirvana versus Attitude - My Story - FYI

swim ordered his first beans through nirvana thinking they would be ok. well it took a whole week just to get shipped then 3 weeks to get. so whole thing took a month.when swim looked 3 were crushed, 1 did not germ,and the one that germed sprouted then fell over and died. so out of swim's 5 feminized beans he got squat. he sent a support ticket, they replied saying just this once they will send a new pack out.in the meantime swim placed an order from atitude. was shipped out next day,instead of a week,and offers tracked shipping, and free beans.both orders were sent out on the same day. lets see who gets here first.. even though nirvana sent out replacement order, swim will not use them again. atitude only...

Its bad enough ya cant trust weed dealers these days with em rippin ya off puttin crushed glass and all sorts in weed to gain weight but now shops are rippin us off aswell say you spent $25 on seeds and they get 300 orders a month of same value or more out of them 300 they dont send out ten orders thats $250 amonth pure profit u never know there orders a month could be 3000 and out of that they dont send out a 100 orders thats 2500 a month aslong as theyre gettin good feedback from the 2900 that did get there order they are laughin all the way to the bank obviously im not sayin for sure nirvana are doin this but im 99.9.009%sure lol i stick with www.picknmixseeds.co.uk always get my orders within the week i order em next day delivery or same day if order before 11am uk time but they will ship anywhere in usa and they the cheapest seedbank online feminised seeds from 3quid and regulars from 1.09pound never had misplaced orders or anything apart from the guy who works there on the phone being a bit of a prick www.picknmixseeds.co.uk gets my vote for best seedbank iv used up to now. I did spend 50quid on dud seeds from them once but thats g.h.s and there shit unreliable strains for ya not pnm's fault

they do giv out freebies but only with bigger orders like 50pound or more i spent 50pound on seeds and got 1 vanilla kush fem and 1 dutch dragon fem also i recieved unsatisfacory seeds once i thought was cracked i phoned em up told em the script and they replaced my whole order the whole of 3 seeds lol also with a complimentry picknmix bottle opener lighter good stuff

good to hear you got some seeds from atittude, i think nirvana doesnt provide tracking number due to paper trails?

where the eff you get your weed from? I've been smoking for 20 years and not once have I had crushed glass in any of my stuff.

Sorry to hear about the poor experience with Nirvana. I actually went through the same thing. Difference being, the second shipment Alice sent in 'good faith' actually showed up (within 2 weeks if i remember). I also just used up some discount points i had earned on their forum, and ordered a pack of 5 fem AK48, that only cost me 19USD all said and done (including shipping). Even better, they showed up within 10 days.

Again, these things vary, and i don't expect anyone's opinion to be changed on my experience alone. Would i use nirvana again? hell ya i would. Am i going to? Not for some time. Im ready to start playing with a larger selection of strains now. That's not to say i wont come back later for a favorite (i really liked the BlackJacks).

i ordered from nirvana like 6-8 weeks back never received so did bagseed waited finally put another order in so if these dont arrive ima be mad and they offered charlies

I ordered from Nirvana And The Attitude on the same day, Nirvana's came in 9 days, Attitudes came in 22 days. Nirvana seeds germed and were growing great by the time Attitudes arrived. Two of the Attitudes seeds were busted, and the Freebie that I wanted badly, blue hash plant was swapped for a critical+. I e-mailed the tude, told them what happened. No answer, waited a week, e-mailed again. After around 2 weeks, total of about 5 weeks since I opened the pack, they answered. They said stock problems for the reason no blue hash plant, but, they offered it as a freebie for 2 weeks after I ordered! They said I had to send them pics of the packaging and the cracked seeds for them to do anything. Who keeps packaging laying around for a month after opening it? Who keeps worthless cracked seeds? In the meantime, all the good seeds from both places germed and Nirvana's Pure Power Plant is growing like crazy, the WW x BB and the Critical+ from the Attitude are puny and sickly looking. Used the same grow medium, lights, water, everything on all the seeds, seedlings. Nirvana is better and I'll never order from Attitude again.

i love attitude everything i order sprouts in less than 48 hours, usually 24. the best method imo is the warm wet paper towel in a dark warm place. i dont know what happened to your plants are you giving them the proper amount of water and ventilation? the Critical + is a tricky plant and it doesnt like to be over-watered. if this if your first time growing or your first year of growing i can see how you had problems with the critical +
ive never had problems with either the critical+ or white widows from tude. i especially like the white label white widow. most of tude's white widow crosses are legit and if u search the forum grow journals you will see plenty of successful grows from both these strains.

Thanks Ting. I germ the same way, and never over water. I know to let 'em get a little dry before watering, and they have plenty of venting. I know to watch the leaves for signs of over or underwatering. Use a meter and my finger, wash them both before using.
The thing is, all the beans from Nirvana are doing great, and all the ones from The Tude are pitiful. I'm wondering now if the package from Tude could've been exposed to a little more heat than healthy while shipping. Heat can kill 'em or make 'em do strange stuff. What do you think?

I've had pretty good luck with Nirvana. All of the seeds that I bought from them have grown well. The only problem I had with their strains were the auto jock horror and Northern Lights were not really auto. The grew well in a traditional indoor soil garden and I'm still enjoying them. I have 6 Nirvana seeds growing now and they all look good. I've ordered twice from them and both times they shipping was stealthy and I received my beans within 10 days of ordering.

BC Bud.....I ordered 10 original blueberry from them. It took me 28 days from the date I ordered to receiving them. The packet that the seeds arrived in advertised that it was from Holland and it was just a plain white padded envelope. Not what I would consider discreet. There was a gift of 2 extra seeds in the packet which was a plus. Now the bad news...I have yet to have a BC Bud seed grow!
I attempted to germ their seeds using three different methods. Soaking (2) beans overnight in water then damp paper towel between two plates..no germ. No soak, just (4)seeds in a damp paper towel...no germ. Directly into Fox Farm Ocean organic potting soil (2) seeds...no germ. Now comparing apples to apples. At the same time I was attempting to germ the 1st two BC Bud blueberry seeds I successfully germed planted and have growing 2 Northern Lights, 2 Jock Horror, and 2 White Widow. All from Nirvana.
I have emailed BC Bud and informed them of my problem. How they handle it will determine how I relate my experience on this and several other seedbank reviews. After reading reviews about BC Bud from several other sources I am not hopeful. I will post up on how things work out

I probably should have started a new thread with my last post as this thread is about Nirvana and Attitude....sorry

Wow! BC Bud responded to my email within 2 hrs! They have offered to replace the defective seeds at no cost to me. If they do what they say, then I will do nothing but praise them. This is the absolute opposite of what I have read about BC Bud in the negative reviews I've seen.

nirvana has shipped my three packages within 2 months all arrived within 2 weeks 100% germ so far cant complain

My first and only order experience so far was from attitude and went super fine as they arrived in like 10 days which is fine (i order a lot of bogus things through ebay and i know about delivery times in my country). Also had like 3 freebies and everything i attempted so far sprouted and is looking good. For the record I'm vegging 2 GOM, Buddha Deimos and Top69, Dinafem Auto Haze and Red Dwarf.

I got Skunk #1 from nirvana before they decided to cross it into "Super Skunk" and although the plants that did sprout REALLY took off it was long shipping and over all just too much BS...Cant argue with the prices though.

2 months is a pretty long time to wait for shipping but it depends on where u are i guess. i was just saying in another post how much i like nirvana's aurora indica, perfect plant for a stealth cabinet because it doesnt get too tall. attitude is not a breeder tho like nirvana is, so its kind of funny that there is still debate on this thread. like, you can buy nirvana seeds at tude, tude is just the shipping company.

Was considering Nirvana for next grow...Thanks for info fellas...I will stick to Attitude...never had a problem

I got some Pure Power Plant from Nirvana in March. Using 1 as mother plant. 4 clones so far. Flowering the other 1. Been in flower about 14 days, started showin white hairs within 5 days of 12/12. It was growin so fast, I decided to do a sorta LST. Tied the top over with shoestring, now all the bud sites are growing straight up and gettin a LOT more light.

I haven't ordered from Nirvana, but I have from Attitude. I ordered one pack of Sage Sour and got one BuKu and one Kushage for free. They were here within two week. I'm also a big fan of the tracking. I just place another order for Guerrilla's Gusto and they tossed in one of each of these: Moby Dick, NL x Big Bud, New York 47, and Afgan Kush Ryder, all fem. I'm pretty stoked about that. I am now a loyal customer of theirs. Why would I shop anywhere else with service like that?

Don't quite know what to think about some of these stories about seed orders....been acquring seeds from attitude, nirvana and dope seeds for years...never any prob with any....except for the time a tractor sideswiped my mail box, launching my attitude cup and beans underneath the wheels.....I always get my seeds from all....but I will say the beans from nirvana seem to be a bit higher quality than some from the 'tude....it's just according to the breeder....so I did learn to use well known breeders and well known strains....that do as advertised.....I treat freebies just as they are...freebies...and give'em away....attitude doesn't custom match their freebies with what ya order.....that's why I prefer dope-seeds.com...you order autos, you get free autos...you order photos, you get free photos...much preferred....
