    Ok, heres my situation:

    I live in great climate for weed and have the perfect back yard. So far, I have 3 plants growing (2 weeks old) and have a ton of bag seeds germinating. The problem is that the only weed I get that has seeds is the $30/ounce stuff (it gets the job done but its not dank).

    So, I've got $25 in an envelop ready to sent to the UK for some Ice seeds (Nirvana), but don't know if its gonna be worth the wait, money, and risk. So what do y'all think?

    (btw, this is my first grow)

    -Thanks

    Hi EolGul...I don't know anything about ice but usually bought seeds are well worth it. However, since it is your first grow it is a decision you have to make. For my first grow, I used bag seed and was happy with the results and then was confident enough to grow bought seeds which I am doing now and already I notice a HUGE difference in the ease of growing and the size of the plants. So, basically, if you feel confident that you won't kill them on your first try, get the good seeds.

    yeah bro i would aggree with lucian there is nothign wrong with bag seed it gets the job done. i just dont want to see you possiably loose your cash that you spent on some trippy strain if you havent grown before. i leave it up to you. and i place my vote for bagseed.

    Well, I got stoned (per usual) and realized that this is my last summer with this awesome backyard so I went ahead and ordered the seeds. I'm learning as I go with the plants I have now and since they'll always be few weeks ahead of the ICE, I'll know what to expect when it really matters.

    (edit: im only gonna use 4 of the 10 seeds they send me, maybe save the rest for an indoor grow later on. thanks again for the replies)

    What kind of seeds if you dont mind me asking?
    Also, by "difference in ease," do you mean easier or harder (sorry if its a stupid ?, but like I said, I'm pretty stoned)

    Why not buy here at Grasscity from Nirvana?
    I'm growing Misty from Nirvana bought here at the city.
    Just a suggestion...

    Hi EolGul: I bought Joey Weeds AK99 from hempqc.com. Here is a look at how they harvest :) I meant the bought seeds are alot easier to grow though there are some strains that are alot harder to maintain. My bag seed plants were alot wimpier than the good seed ones and didn't preflower at all. My good seed plants are alot bigger and bushier at the same age and made preflowers at 6 weeks of veg so they could be sexed prior to flowering and so alot easier to clone.

    This isn't my pic but a pic of what I expect to harvest. I will be happy if the bud is half this big hehe.

    Good luck! Start a journal of your grow and if you have trouble we will help :)

    I remember reading somewhere that the city doesn't ship seeds to the U.S. Sucks if that isn't true because I love these forums and wish I could have helped support the site.

    I've been thinking about it, but am worried my IP can be traced or something. Has anyone been caught over the net ?
