Hey there. First off let me start by saying most of the plants I grow come from. Seeds I have gotten from some very high quality buds I have gotten over the years as well as from a grower who produces very nice buds. I am almost out of seed so a friend who ordered seed from attitude and grew several plant from them. With terrible results. I figure maybe he just didn't know how to grow. Although he had a great set up and seemed to do it all right. Out of the 10 plants he started 2 where females. And 3 of the seeds planted where feminized. He ended up with 1 female from the fem seeds. And 1 female from the regular seeds.all the rest males and 1 hermie from the get. they where very well kept. And not stressed at all to my knowledge. No light leaks just a good environment. I will let everyone know what I've heard and seen and then express my experience So I have heard of many people on gc using attitude. a lot of which think that are a good seed bank. From what I have seen. Most post and plant I see that have come from them have been very poor quality. The name also turns me off. It's just gay. Attitude yeah! Attitude they got dank buds. Yeah attitude. Damn it's just annoying and gay. Sorry but that's just my opinion I have heard nothing but bad reviews and I have developed my own opinion from the research I have done and experience I've had A lot if the growers I have seen grow their seeds are goofs and don't have very much cannabis growing knowledge but seem to act as they do. They grow the seed from attitude and then plants look terrible. Strains are way off. And the ones growing them are off. They don't even know how bad their plants look they have no idea. They think that their plant look great and attitude has great seeds. When the growers saying that has no idea and are pretty much clueless When it come to growing and knowing a good quality seed and plant that a good quality seed can produce. I've seen YouTube videos of some of the stupidest people growing plants from attitude and it's retarded one was like yeah these plants are just growing slow they just aren't doing good so I just put em in flower yeah. Like I'm just gonna flower all my plants even if they are little baby's or my plant look like shit let's flower. Then they go on saying how attitude great. Like yeah just got some need seeds from attitude yeah the other seed from attitude grew like shit but I got some more. I'll have to find the video. I'm not hating on any growers. I give them props for doing it. Just learn and get the experience before you start talking. I will say that I don't have a whole lot of experience my self but have done a lot if research and learning before I even planted a seed. I hate seeing people. Waste money time and effort in to growing these low quality plants. I want to see everyone growing the best meds around. It just annoys me. It's just making us fellow growers look bad. I want to save someone from wasting their money on low quality seeds. The seed the sell are not strains advertised. The seeds are low quality I've heard count less times the male female ratio is terrible. I've heard the plant quality is very inconsistent. Now my experience was very close to all of the above. My friend gave me 6 seeds. 3 out of 6 germinated. Not bad but ussally I get more then half to germ. Next 2 out of 3 seedling are growing all deformed and retarded I figure it will work it's self out. The other seedling is growing really slow. The deformed growth continued and the plants where stretching like crazy. And the light was as close as possible and it was a 250 watt metal halide. Which was plenty far away not to be to bright. But close enough to provide plenty of light. After 2 weeks they where still very under sized. I continued to veg. The 2 plants where still mad deformed and the was was just not growing. My soil was good. Ph was good. Not to much Nutes. Everything was perfect. Compared to the 3 bag seeds. The seeds from attitude where doing terrible. As time progressed. The stunted one. Slowly withered away. It was fine one day dead the next it wasn't damping off. It was not root rot. It hardly developed many roots. But still had a good amount of roots for the size. And they looked healthy. It was not deficient nor was it toxic. It just died. Keep in mind if doing the same to all plants. The 2 deformed ones which are still kinda deformed. And are now started producing branches which where really off and the fan leave never got very big. I ended up putting them into flowering. As well as the 3 bag seeds which are doing great and look perfect with big fan leave and healthy green growth. Which you would think the attitude seed where bag seeds. The plant from attitude didn't look that great but seemed healthy although they where deformed and not very good looking. They really looked pretty sickly but they where fine. So I flowered them as well. 1 was a male other was female. The female produced very small buds. Most where very leafy and had a lot of stems. The smell was not very strong. And the bud where very low quality. Throughout the entire grow. The soil and grow area was great. The bag seeds did great out of 3 there was no males. The buds where very fat and potent. With great smell. Just good high quality buds. It's crazy how seed from a bag can do so well but seed susposaly bread and from a seed bank can do so poorly. I fell attitude is a rip off. And want to save someone from wasting time money and effort to grow them. Sorry for the long rant. And I hope I dont offend anyone. This is my opinion and I have a right to voice it. Some one else may not feel the way I do.and I respect all opinions. I would like to hear others thoughts and opinions and experiences with attitude weather it is good or bad. I just hope to save someone the trouble. Also I would like a recommendation for a good seed bank that ships to the USA. Thanks for reading. Happy growing
In my experience and the experiences of people I know first hand in real life attitude seed bank has been nothing but A+. I have gone to them once and my friend Geoff has gone to them twice.
Hmm. I guess there are some good experiences. I haven't heard all bad. I have heard very good thing as well as very bad but ussally more bad. But you really never hear someone talk about the good ussally you here more from people who have had a bad experience. (Example myself.)People just talk more when they have a bad experience rather then good. Now I have heard very good things about herbies seed bank. Has anyone dealt with them.?
Herbies is A++ in my book. Four orders and out of those one just never showed up but was promptly replaced. They are clever stealth to boot. Sent from my SM-G900V using Grasscity Forum mobile app
the thing is attitude doesn't own ALL those seed genetics. it's more like a online wal-mart. they just get it from the people who make the genetics then send it to you. that's like saying I hate the way Pepsi tastes so I am going to blame wal-mart instead of the people who make Pepsi. there is a lot of seed brands on that website. I am positive there is as many bad genetic seeds as there are good.. id like to know which genetics you and the friend had as that would be far more accurate to help people then just saying a seed bank sucks. I feel like you probably just went with the cheapest seeds you could find, which would explain why you got shit results. iv got some flying Dutchman seeds. got a bunch of freebies with it. I wish I had looked up the phenotypes of the seeds I got because it appears pineapple chunk isn't a stable genetic yet.... so that sucks but its my fault for just jumping on something that sounded like I wanted to eat it instead of doing my homework.
iv had a great experience with attitude. customs was holding my first package so they sent me another. turns out customs released the first package so it looks like im getting 2 packages lol
Ordered from attitude 5 times now was pleased each time ,each strain was from diff seed bank to. I've had good success so forth and some dank pheno types from there. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
Yes you are entitled to your opinion. But based on your wall of text, it seems you've never actually ordered from Attitude. You were given seeds by someone else who claims they ordered from Attitude. It also sounds like you don't understand that Attitude is not a breeder, they are a seed bank. They sell seeds from many breeders. And you can get seeds from Attitude in the original breeders packaging. So unless you are claiming that they use real packaging and switching in inferior seeds, I have no idea you're talking about. Every seed I've ever ordered from Attitude has been fine. I've purchased seeds from Joint Dr./Lowryder, World of Seeds, Short Stuff, Delicious seeds, Samsara seeds, and more. Now, I realize that not every single person who uses Tude has a perfect experience. Right here on GC you can read both good and bad experiences. But your particular story comes off sounding very uninformed, and a bit sketchy.
OP sounds like a commercial for Herbies. For someone that has never ordered from them you seem to have a lot of opinions. Phefff.
I have to say their selection and offering of freebies can't be matched! I order the super stealth every time and have had 0 issues with delivery. Can't knock em unless you've actually tried them and you can't blame them for your seed selection, they didn't breed them, just sell them.

I've used Attitude before and purchased Cup Winning Strains (DNA and Reserve Privada strains) and had great plants come from the seeds sent to me. One thing for sure just like in real life you get what you pay for. You choose a random strain that sounds good and has a pretty picture you are gonna have a random chance at getting a good plant out of the seed. All of the seeds I have purchased from them have germinated and they were all FEM as promised. I actually have seen a lower rate of hermies on my plants since I started using DNA/Reserve Privada fem seeds considering my plants are exposed to the "city glow" of the street lights and radiant light coming from growing outside in a big city. I currently have beans at CHI TOWN USPS "Your item arrived at our USPS facility in CHICAGO, IL 60701 on November 17, 2014 at 2:49 pm" and I expect them in the next couple of days here. The only issue I ever had was when communicating with them once via email I asked them if they had sent me a 2nd or possibly free order as after I had received my order that time about a week later I got a package that had the green sticker of doom on it that was empty except for a note telling me nice cards, (no clue to this day wtf this package came from) and they got all weirded out wanting the letter and a pic and couldn't seem to understand even after I was very clear I wasn't asking them to send me anything else that all I wanted them to check was if they had sent e a 2nd package for some reason. Other than that my experience with Attitude has been problem free.
Same seed stock at attitude that Herbie's has.. So it the Quality Of the breeders not the bank. When you order shit research It first.. If it has 7 phenos then you may never find the great One your looking for.. I Order from Tude 4-8 times a year And never had a problem getting my order, That's why I Go with them
Attitude doesn't produce the seeds so when you say they sell low quality I call BS. I always get mine sealed in the original breeders packs.
Only problems i had when i ordered seeds in 2014 was the post office woulnt leave it in my mailbox without signing it. I heard that some brands hermie ,are male
The simple fact that the Op cant distinguish between a breeder and a seed bank speaks volumes as to their credibility as a grower.
