Hi all. I was on a website and they have like 100 different kinds of seeds that range in price from $35 per pack of 10 to $360 per pack of 10. Does anyone know if any of the pricey seeds are worth the money? I don't mind ponying up, but if the $35 seed is as good as the $350 then I'll go cheap. If any of you know of a really cool type of plant to try, please let me know. I grow mostly indoors although I do give them time in natural sunlight. Thanks for you opinion.

The very pricy ones like from dutch passion are prolly feminized. Higher Fem ratio. but can still pop a male or even a hermie.

The really pricy standard seeds are stabilized and would be good for breeding or crossing.

The lower end seeds like nirvana are not as stable traits will be varied quite a bit.

If your new to growing, then I would recommend nirvana or ones about the same price. Don't want to kill off a 10 dollar seed if you know what I mean.

but in the end its still just a weed. Seedbanks have a habit of putting a lot of hype to increase price. IMHO
but not saying a good stable F1 strain is not worth the bucks.

You won't see a fem'd seed in my grow room. :p

As far as seed selection...go with an easier to grow one. avoid Sativas they have a longer flowering period and are tall. Till you get the knack of growing if your new. Indica dominant would be the best route. IMHO

Ones I see with the best reviews for getting em across the border and shipping to the US is
1. Dr. Chronic (free pack of ten with order)
2. Seed Boutique (free pack of ten with order)
3. Nirvana
Prolly many others that are great, but those are the ones I see people ordering from the most.

Great post Dawg!

I had great results with Seed Boutique. I spent $20 for 10 Misty seeds and also got a free pack of 10 Skunk/Durban Poison seeds and that includes shipping. Definately less painful when you get a male or one dies off. :)

Go see my Lucy & Ethel outdoor journal if you'd like to see whatever became of 2 of my cheapy seeds. ;)

Good luck!
