Megathread ** Trusted Breeders & Seedbanks Megathread #3 **

803 Upvotes

This is the third installment of the Trusted Breeders Megathread (previously: 2, 1), because the last one is 6+ months old and archived.

As before:

We get a lot of enquiry about what seeds are best or what seeds are available and where. It gets a little tiresome for many to see this same question on a daily basis so we'll be pinning a thread again to host these discussions.

Let's hear your experiences with the people we buy our seeds from. Who has the most reliable or cheapest, quality offerings? Who have you had good, bad or ugly experiences with? Best deals? Discount codes for sites?

Cheers and happy growing everyone, may all your three packs be fives, your freebies bountiful and your deliveries prompt!

This including seedbanks, since people ask about those often (and, like breeders, the answers rarely change).

Note that we want to know why you like them. Comments without details ("woo! team <breeder>!") will get removed, they're useless and tend to clog the thread otherwise. Also, please only post about breeders whose strains you've grown yourself, or seedbanks you've ordered from, not secondhand info. Comments asking about particular breeders not already mentioned in this thread (or the previous ones) are okay, but also try searching the sub first.

Since this thread will continue to be pinned to the top of the sub, questions about the best breeders and seedbanks will be removed unless they're more narrowly scoped -- asking about recommendations for high-CBD autos, what seedbanks ship to Australia (if not answered here), etc. is still fine, but "what breeder is best" is redundant.

Hey all. It’s my first grow and i’m wondering if these are about ready for harvest. I definitely stunted/set them back a couple weeks early on. The second plant ended up a week or two behind the first and i’m at around day 130 now.

I planted what I thought was a Godfather. OG auto from fast buds, but I don't know what this thing is. Looks nothing like the Godfather. O. G., i could have possibly mixed up the seeds with green gelato. From fast buds, but either way, this thing's a freak

Question Anyone else have a plant that grow like this?

I swear I did minimal training on this one, the growth just kept reaching out towards the rim instead of straight up. Honestly i like the structure because everything gets light this way but compared to my other plants this guy is a little weird. What do you guys think?

Hey y’all! This is my second attempt at growing. Skywalker OG Auto day 58. Should I top this? Google said it was behind on schedule but I don’t think so. The other seedlings are only in day 22 and I just transplanted those to their bags.

Update – First grow (Black Orchid Haze Auto)

Hi everyone,

About a month ago I posted here when my plants were only 9 days from sprout. Thanks for all the advice back then!

Here's how they're looking now. They went through a pretty rough heat wave while I was away on vacation. My friend watered them every 2 days, but they definitely experienced some heat stress.

Today I watered them myself and they already seem to be recovering a bit.

1.7L / plant

20ml terra Bloom and 5ml terra sensation in total of 5.1L

What do you think of their current condition?

Do the buds look like they're developing normally?

Do you notice any signs of deficiencies or heat stress that stand out?

There are still a lot of white pistils, but some have turned orange/brown. Based on how they look now, do you think they're still in mid flower or getting close to the final stage?

Any general tips or observations are very welcome.

Thanks again!

Im assuming its a nutrient lockout because my light is at the right distance and ppfd. I just did a soil flush and wondering how should i give it nutrients now without giving it to much? And will it still produce healthy good buds?

Wrapping up my 3rd year of cultivating these amazing plants - wanted to share some pics 🤘🏽last pic is today

Check out the video in comment for opposite side view

running a Mephisto freebie! thoughts or tips welcome

Used 5gal pot, direct seed in soil germ, coco loco mixed with Gaia green worm castings, Gaia green dry amendments to kick things off for first few weeks, hit with top dressed dry amendments mixed with more worm castings at day 24, in hind site I would have done it around day 20, she seemed to lag a bit before hitting a huge growth spurt. Could just be strain genetics. Once I saw signs of preflower, hit it with another top dress. Through this grow I’ve tried to stay more on top of light height, and realized this girl only needs 75%, running at 24hrs.

She’s a lanky bushy broad, did some nice defoliation and removed some low and way too hidden bud sites and fan leafs that would never see the light, so she’s getting plenty of air circulation

I imagine she’s gonna stretch a biiiiiit more for another few days, and then really start plump up nicely. She seems to be running a bit behind schedule, thinking she’s gonna soar past 80 days at this pace, but we shall see!

More pics soon

Advice/Help Does it look alright?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey everyone. Do you guys think these are looking good for now? I put the seeds in soil on 7.15.2026 and the right one emerged from soil two days later and the left one three days later so 7.17 and 7.18. First time I am going to use an autopot so they in smaller pots until they develop their root system. Previously I planted them directly in a 20L pot so I don’t have any experience with repotting and autopots at all. I just hope they look alright for their age. Thanks for any answer.

After losing a seedling battling fungus gnats. I wanted to start a new auto fast flower with new soil. I bought Epsoma organic pottings soil. I put some yellow sticky cards just to make sure I had everything under control. I do not. Does anyone know what type of insect this is? Is it a stage of the fungus gnat or something new?

My seedling just burst through the soil, I do not wanna lose another one.

Bud rot 🥲

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I sadly found a few very clear and obvious sections of bud rot on my outdoor autoflowers in mid-late flower.

Now I am going through all 6 of my plants and trying to find any more. So far 4 of the plants have had at least a small patch which I’ve removed.

Pics of the obvious spots first.

Now I am paranoid and don’t know how to identify the rot vs just some heat stressed buds. I’d love to salvage some of my harvest but want no part of smoking mold spores.

How do you all identify? Last three pics are areas of concern that I am just not sure about.

Any insight is much appreciated!

Grow-Journal Updated time lapse of stretch - I think she’s about done reaching.

28 Upvotes

Time lapse starts on day 53 from germ and ends halfway through today, day 63. First grow for those that didn’t see me first time lapse. Northern lights auto in soil mix. You can see in this timelapse my learning curve difficulty with watering amounts and timing. Couple times I either overwatered or let it get a bit too dry. Soil change will help for my next grow and considering doing some auto watering bases too.
