    I just about placed an order from RQS US and my virus software says it could be a scam sure and has a low score. Are they legit? Are their seeds what they say they are? They have a really good Black Friday sale. Just wondering if they are too good to be true? Good germination and genetics?

    any other good reputable seed banks with good deals I should try instead? At RQS with sales I am looking at like 30 seeds for under $140 plus some other free stuff

    I believe theyre legit, ive had a few of their seeds.. F1 titan and hyperion.. havent had any success with them with the 3 seeds ive tried but the apple fritter is good.

    I usually get mine through a seed bank to be sure im not getting ripped off, but their own site should be ok I think.

      So the seeds you tried from them didn’t germinate?

        A couple did but they just stretched to about 2 inches high and died..

        I did nothing different to any other seeds ive germinated and others germinated at the same time were fine, just the RQS seeds gave me the problem.. it may have just been that strain, as ive had apple fritter seeds and they were ok.

        The ones I had issues with were hyperion F1..

    Ethos seeds are my favorite breeder. I have bought seeds from a number of sources. I like /ethos best, then Seedsman.

      I ended up going with 3 different seed breeders/banks

      some Photo Jealousy from Barney’s Farm. I have only done Autos so far and wanted to try a photo grow

      Blueberry Auto from STRNG Seeds. Supposed to be a 1:1 strain with 16/16 THC cbd. Wanted to grow something with cbd for sleep and my wife just got through cancer treatment. Bought 6. Sour Diesil from them and 5 of 6 grew great. One died in soi after germination but that was my very first attempt at growing

      and last I got some Pineapple OG Autos from Seedsman

      I popped two of the Jealousy photos and they are about a week out of soil after germinating. I got some auto pots, grow dots and recharge I can’t wait to try out with these ones. Of the two seeds one was a little slower and took two days longer to germinate. It is a little behind the other one in size. But both seem to be doing ok. First thing I am noticing with photos is that they seem to be a little slower to grow so far.

        I have had great luck with Humboldt Seed Co. I have ordered many of their seeds 200% germination Etnors, in-house genetics and Barney’s Farm are good. As far as seed banks seeds here now and seeds man are great as well. Stick with these for now and you can find all you need. In my experience hope that helps.

    Yes Royal Queen Seeds is about as Legit as they come. They have been in business for a while and have a nice selection of old school genetics and new strains being released frequently. If by chance you are on their site and the have a strain that is “Out of Stock”, jump over to Zamnesia Seeds and they may have what you are looking for. Zamnesia has been doing business and collabs with Royal Queen for a while also. Zamnesia also has a lot of sales throughout each month. So there is an off chance you may even find what you are on the hunt for at a cheaper price.

    So far I have grown Special Queen 1 – Auto and Photo (prefer the Auto, for some reason she taste much better), Purplematic, Quick One -Auto and Mimosa. All of them were fun grows. Special Queen can get picky on you especially if you forget or don’t do a semi type flush before switching or right as she starts to bud set.

    Hope that helps!

    Keep It Growing!

      I just shoppeda bunch of sales and am pretty set for now with seeds…. Unless I get me another tent setup. I am considering doing a few autoflowers in the closet. I have some 1:1 higher CBD strain plants I want to grow and make gummies with them
