Seedbank Update Dec/29/01 reports on known seedbanks
green man
information are near the end.
The URL for the website is http://www.seedbankupdate.com here you will find plans for a home made ozone generator, the latest seedbank ratings and links to a lot of cultivation information.
There are a lot of viruses and various bad things being sent by email. I've been sent suspicious attachment a half a dozen times. I felt sure they were something bad but I didn't open them. Viruses and worms can wipe out your hard drive and make your computer unuseable. Do not open any attachments from people you don't know well and only if you are expecting them. Opening an email won't hurt you, it's the attachment that does the job. Just because it has a friend's return email address doesn't mean he or she sent it. Some worms will take over the address list and send a copy of itself to everyone on the list. This is done without the owners knowing about it.
A new wrinkle on the old game has come up. I've gotten reports that rumors are circulation about harmless programs that are normally found in windows systems. You can get an email saying for example that program xyz.exe is a deadly virus and will wipe out your computer in a few weeks. You are advised to search for it in your hard drive and delete it if you find it. You look and there it is. You are concerned you have been a victim of a virus so you delete it. Guess what? you just got taken by a scam. The program is probably a harmless one maybe even one you need. Your friend may be convinced he is helping you by passing along the rumor. All you have to do is right click on the program when you find it and click on "properties". This will tell you when the program was created. If it was around the time or before the time your operating system was installed, it's almost certainly harmless. It might be vital so don't delete it.
This is a weekly report on which seedbanks are reliable and give good service. I also list some bad ones to stay away from (crooks). Reports from people who have
ordered from cannabis seedbanks are welcome. That's what this is based on, reports from people like you. You can send your report to me at seed...@ZZZ37.com (removeZZZ) If you send a report please state what bank you ordered from, how long it took and roughly how far away you are from them. I'd like to know if the packaging was stealty (well hidden) and what method used and if any seeds were crushed. Any other info you think is important will be appreciated. Reports on how the crop turned out are good too. I don't rate companies on price, that's up to you to compare. The more stars, the more reliable. F = faster than average, no letter = average, S = slow.
I have a system of additional ratings. They are a one (1) for accepting payment by money order or certified check without charging extra for it. A two (2) will
be given for free stealth shipping. A three (3) will be given for accepting credit cards. This leaves a paper trail but is quick and easy. (4) indicates that they use PGP code for privacy on request. A five (5) means Western Union is accepted. A six (6) indicates customer complaints about seed quality. An example of the new rating might be Ed's seeds (***) (1,2) which means three stars and he gives free shipping and takes money orders with no extra charge.
This group I've heard good things about. Those with four stars or more are the most reliable. They will send to most countries. I've tried to list those that ship worldwide. Those with a relatively low rating may just be new to the ratings. It takes a while to earn a good rating. A 1/2 means they are half way to the next star.

This is the rip-off section. The following seedbanks I've heard many bad things about. They are NOT recommended. aka means also known as. X means they seldom or never send the product. N means sending non viable seeds (non sprouting seeds) M indicates they send very inferior seeds or nothing at all
A-1 Seedbank (X,N)
Beeoo (X)
Fairlight (X,N)
Pot a Gold (X)
Richies Seedshack (X)
Software Services aka Cannabis4u aka Medical hemp aka cann...@direct.A2000.nl
[L.Pafort] (X)
Stinkey's (X)
Weedseed (X)
These seedbanks are not recommended due to excessive complaints. This is a judgement call and some customers have said they were satisfied. The nature of the complaints are as follows: 10 = non delivery, 11 = very poor customer service, 12 = inferior quality or misrepresented seeds, 13 = unethical conduct by seedbank owner.
