I followed all steps necessary. When all else failed I soaked in distilled water for 2 weeks then threw away. 20 % did not germinate. Since I threw them out and didn't have pictures I was SOL. Save your time and money, go somewhere else!
So I ordered from Growers choice for awhile now.the first the first time I ordered Columbian gold Auto and Hawaiian. The Hawaiian turned out good but the Columbian gold they sent me was all photos but didn't say anything about it. Then I ordered Hawaiian Auto a couple times and they turn out good. But this last time I ordered Columbian gold,Hawaiian and Maui all were supposed to be Autos. I started growing the Columbian gold first and 2 1/2 months into it I seen they were forsure photos so after I contacted them and got the run around they gave me my money back on the Columbian gold.But that threw my cycle off by 2 month. So in 3 weeks of the 2 months I started the Hawaiian and Maui Auto plants and moving forward 2 1/2 months I seen they are all photos too!
So I called them and I talked to a guy there and he told me to send photos of my plants and I did. The next day a really rude lady there called me up and basically was calling me a liar and there was no way my whole order was all photos and just went off on me. I am one of the most honest guys out there and I don't lie and for here to call me a liar really got me upset. So bottom line if you Order Autos seeds from them and waste 2 1/2 months spending money growing there seeds and they turn out to be photos they will not make it right and will leave you high and dry and turn there backs on you! They will send you photos seeds and say they are Atuo I seen it first hand and it cost me alot of money learning that lesson!
So buyer be ware when buying from Growers Choice they will send you the wrong seeds and then blame you for it and turn there back on you!
Unless you're documenting every step of the germination process in detail the guarantee is worthless. Even if you do it's not really worth much since you pay shipping on the replacement (and they only replace anything over 80% that failed).
There are better places to spend your money
I bought 5 bruce banner fem seeds for my indoor grow tent, and I gotta say its some great genetics! Man all of my seeds germinated, and grew into strong thriving flowers. I cant believe I didn't find these guys earlier. Thank you growers choice seeds for your amazing genetics you carry as well the friendly customer service. 11/10 recommendation from Tom
Its my first time ordering from growers choice seeds, I tried their afghan kush autos because im new to the growing space, I smoke weed for my medical needs daily. I bought 3 seed to try out, all 3 of them sprouted, and they're growing quite strong, I didn't know what to expect for my first set up but i'm happy with the outcome. I always came back to their store just to ask the live chat thing for help, they're really helpful.
I bought some OG kush, they're freaking great! All 3 of my seeds germinated and I got a sick yield. The boys love the smoke and it just brings back great memories. I was really particular in finding this strain, they have so many different seeds to choose from, so the customer support chat found it for me. I ordered, and in about 3 days I got my seeds.
I purchased quantum kush autos, it is my first time going at it, and I really liked them. I had 3 auto seeds, they all germinated, all growing super strong and healthy. Im really glad I chose Growers Choice Seeds with my first go at having a green thumb. As soon as I harvest these bad boys Im eyeing some more strains to try. Other than that, the shipping was pretty good, my seeds came in about 6 days which is average I think and the customer chat was pretty good, they answered all my greenie questions and even included a germination guide for me in my order. 10/10 I would recommend.
I have nothing but good things to say about growers choice seeds. I ordered bruce banner to try out and holy shzz the seeds are the best genetics I've seen (I attached a photo to show you all) they grew just as intended, I got huge nuggets from them and a bigger yield than I expected. The shipping was pretty quick, I got my seeds in 4 days of ordering I think and shout out to the customer service girl for recommending me bruce banner. Everything was just perfect.
Nice site, with excellent content. Good prices. Quick delivery and very good customer service. Just unacceptable genetics! I should have checked the reviews and didn't. They did replace the seeds, but the replacement seeds are just horrible too. Will need to stay with ILGM and Herbies for now. Will try again in a few years due to the very good customer service.
More detail- I did germinate the first fresh batch of seeds from Growers Choice at the same time as I germinated a few leftover seeds from ILGM. The ILGM seeds took off in 2-5 days. They are growing well. The seeds from Growers Choice didn't do anything for 10 days. Finally, one seed split open and the tap root just quit. I complained and received the very best customer service. Ordered replacement seeds and am just disgusted with the results so far. I think they are all in a coma or dead. If there is an improvement, I will update this review.
I purchased some CBD critical mass from Growers Choice seeds because Im tired of buying from the local dispensary, this was my first grow and I couldn't be more happy with the grow. 4 out of 5 of my seeds popped off and were super resilient. I got maybe just under 4 ounces so I think its a success for my first operation. I will be coming back to them for some of their more exotic strains, they have a huge selection.
I ordered from growers choice seeds. I waited excitedly for my order after being notified of the anticipated delivery. That day came and went. I was then informed of the delivery. The delivery never happened. I waited a few days and then contacted GCS about the delivery. GCS put the burden of proof on me and sent me on an endless trail with USPS. The final decision of USPS was " This tracking number is not eligible for an inquiry, but is eligible for a postage refund." I wonder why? Because the order was never sent.
Be extremely careful who you buy from. A reputable company would make this right instead of dropping the issue with an apology and hoping the customer will as well.
After several emails to Growers Choice Seeds. They have offered to make the order right.
Edit: GCS did send me seeds. Little pale empty husks. Spend your money elsewhere.
Ordered from them several times, we've yet to have more than 1 or 2 seeds germinate. We've followed THEIR germinating process, but it makes no difference. This last time, we bought 10 seeds... NOT ONE germinated! Last time we're ordering from them! I think their seeds are old.
I made a purchase with my hard earned money and picked this company over a lot of other well it says on sight 10-14 days or something like that for shipping in USA it's been over a month then I find out customes took them and all I got was a sticker for my money and there customer service is worse then any place I've ever spent money with I've tried to work with them but they just ignore you but will respond to a bad review real quick. If you live in the USA be careful you might not get your product
I spent $160.00 on ten feminized marijuana seeds. Only 2 opened. So time lost trying to get replacement didn't work or return of the money. Only imagine all the others went through. This is a rip off company.
Horrible experience customer service is non existent…. Shipping is the worst! I'm in the states and when mailed from California it should take no more than 4 days! But these fools don't ship your items out the next day I guess they are so lazy they wait to get a few orders before trekking to the post office… it's been 20 days and my seeds shipped yesterday…. I could have walked to California and picked them up….
So when you do get a seed that actually sprouts its ok, but you never know what your getting. It can be the exact same strain according to them and look nothing alike. Last order 3 of 12 seeds grew. Go somewhere else. Also, if you have a small space, it's going to take a while before you use all your seeds, so 60 days return is a joke. No way to return your product, once they have your money, you never hear from them again.
OH, I almost forgot, last batch I ordered all autos, one seed was a photo.
They started off ok, i got about 80 percent germ, but now less than a year later i'm getting less than 10%. Guess it's time for seedsman to shine.
Germination was great, definitely the 80% they say. All plants grew well for 30 days then went to flower. Started some indoor thought it was my fault they went to flower so quick when moved out doors so started more seeds. Same result. No amount of nitrogen could keep them in veg. If you're looking for buds in 60 days that's great, but their genetics must be horrible. Would give 0 stars if it were an option. Buy your seeds somewhere else.
I purchased six "fortune cookie" seeds. Only five seeds germinated. Then out of the five plants only two grew buds. So four of the six were garbage. Tried to get a replacement seed for the one that didn't germinate but was told they didn't warranty them. Probably won't use them again. Btw I did the same regimen for all plants.
The only thing authentic are the photos and the descriptions of the strains. Number 1 skunk smells like berry. Supposed to smell like an actual skunk. Germination is a poke and a hope. What did pop was not what its advertised as. I've grown weed for 40 + years and these are not what they say.
Only pictures are authentic in any way. Would love to get it tested its likely delta 8 weed. F. N. Gross. Really?
Purchased worthless seeds from here that did not grow. Tried to get a refund or replace the seeds. And this place returned all my emails and then block me from emailing them. The place is a Rip Off, Save your money! Go else where...
