Second experience:
While proximity probably plays a factor, I’m only one state away, no one gets seeds to my door faster! Tried three sample orders from three separate companies. The others are on their way, Humboldt is here.
They come in original packs with all the relevant info, they look FAT and healthy, dark and striped. I’ve only ever had good experiences personally. I’ve heard the nightmare herm stories but haven’t seen them in anyone’s grows near me. Totally possible but honestly, I’m sold. Cost vs quality and time is on point.
Bought auto flour dream couldn't get Them To pop. Paid a hundred dollars 4 Nine Save. I want my money back.Try to call no call back.What a joke

Stoopid fruits was a hermaphrodite. Got seeds. Wasted my money time - effort

Had some issues with the banktransfer. I was quickly helped by their customer service, I even got a personal update that the transfer went through and the seeds were on their way.
Saw good reports about them, spent much $$$ on triploids, poddy, pineapple, squirt. Many seeds sent were pale, immature. Germination rate way low. Triploids a total failure. Hermies and other weird problems common. The other negative reviews are unfortunately accurate.

I embarked on a journey with Humboldt Seed Co.'s Donutz Triploid plant, eager to cultivate a premium plant. However, my enthusiasm swiftly turned to disappointment and frustration. After dedicating two months to meticulously mainlining the plant, I eagerly anticipated the flowering phase, only to be confronted with a distressing sight of male pollen balls on several branches. Humboldt Seed Co.'s claim of providing top-quality genetics was shattered as my efforts were undermined by the presence of hermaphroditic traits in their supposedly feminized strain. The betrayal of finding male parts amidst what was supposed to be a female plant not only jeopardizes yield but also wastes my valuable time and resources. The quality control at Humboldt Seed Co. seems sorely lacking, leaving customers like myself deeply disappointed and questioning the integrity of their products.

I ordered two variety's STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE and Guzzler. They also sent the free sample of two seeds. Sadly only the unknown freebees germinated. Try another seedbank!

Spent over $1000 on different varieties, feminized seeds and a few auto flowers, only two auto flower seeds popped and grew out of three packages of three each and less than 15% of ,donuts triploid ,squirt, raspberry parfait,Trainwreck and pineapple muffin. Have sprouted must say for the hype. I’m extremely disappointed should’ve just bought Clones .

I must say I am very very disappointed we spent over $300 on seeds and I have not one plant to show for it I followed all the directions I did everything that I did with my other seeds that are growing just fine they germinated okay some didn't germinate it all I planted the ones that germinated and they grew to maybe a half inch tall and then all of a sudden just fell over and died my other plants are doing great and I did nothing different with these seeds then I did with my other seeds. Is there any chance I can get some more seeds to replace these ones that are not growing I sure would appreciate it I only had disability coming in and that was a lot of money for me to fork out I purchased two jelly donuts 10 seeds , one garlic butter five seeds, and one potty mouth five seeds sure use some kind of reimbursement thank you for your time in this matter my info is as follows in case you choose to do the right thing and reimburse.

DONT DO IT! RUN DONT WALK AWAY FROM THERE HORRIBLE SEEDS. Total RIP off spent over 50 dollars for duds! I'm a seasoned grower, and have had nothing but good luck with seeds that I have bought elsewhere. This company says 5 stars so I thought I'd try them. Waste of money and still trying to get my money back or replacements but it's all up to there absolute horrible customer service. So I got ripped off they take your money make you wait forever then when you get them they have no tap root! I did tell them I would write a review but they dont care as long as they get your money!Save your money go to dream beans! Update I finally got the most unprofessional answer stating "I already told the team to send two seeds what else do you want" ummmm how about you address me in a professional email how you would fix the problem instead of not saying anything then clearly have an attitude with me. Seriously go some where else not worth it at all! I had a screenshot but it doesn't let me share photos.

Was gifted seeds, 1/5 germinated. Was sent replacements after asking why germination rate was so low. 1/6 germinated out of the replacements. very disappointed, wont be using any of their seeds again.

Bought Blue Berry Muffin after seeds not sprouting I contacted them and was sent replacements which were not much better. Actually was dumb enough to try one last time and have tap roots but they won’t grow. Duds!!!!
Have some of my own and will be buying from another supplier that I won’t name but their beans pop and grow with no problems.
Lesson learned again and even give them an extra purchase and it’s another failure.

I bought 4 different strains of feminized strains from them. Tried multiple times. They all hermaphrodited. I’ve been growing for 8 years and have it down. I do not recommend them for that type of seed. I contacted them multiple times, just to give em my feedback. They basically brushed me off and never got back to me. Is what it is

I'm looking forward to grow this i seen youtube video and a youtuber from Columbia made the best video about how this came in to play with humboldt seeds employees or maker of the seeds now just waiting on my blueberry muffins seeds check it out on youtube your selves be safe stay strong God bless to be continued
Don't buy any seeds from this company bought 10 seeds of blueberry pancake only one germinated and morphed out you can't talk to anybody and they don't care now you have to buy the seeds from a different company with a huge markup if you buy from them good luck

Reply from Humboldtseedcompany
I have no clue why anyone would put any trust in this company. They sell crappy products. 1 seed out of 3 vials of strains(10 seeds per strain) cracked and kind of sprouted. That's like a 3% chance to not be ripped off by these guys and their immature seeds they sent. If your sending people white/green immature seeds, you're a garbage human PERIOD.

Ordered Blueberry Pancakes, Poddy mouth and Vanilla Cream Pie. 100 seeds altogether total . had about a 50% success rate on germination, and 20% on others, Yes they all popped but did not properly grow right after germination as most soon showed signs of genetic inbreeding and other genetic issues. I contacted with photo proof of what was going on there answer was to question what type of soil was I using? my answer Roots 707 they said try another soil type. Ok, I said which one will work best with YOUR Seeds? they would never tell me because it didn't matter which soil I used the problem is an was in the genetically unstable seed strains. And just to keep it honest they did send out the replacement seeds and a free 10 pack of another strain all of which had the Exact same problems. Just as another customer wrote in his review Never replace Bad seeds with other Bad seeds. HSC be honest, Your strains are not solid and have a lot of genetic issues due to breeding and unstable strain crossing. I will admit the seeds that did make it are coming out decent but on some strains the 20% ratio is Not good Enough. You wasted my time and money with BS.I have photo documentation of all.

Purchased some humboldt dream regulars for $100 for 20 a few months ago. No problem germinating. This isn’t my first rodeo. Then purchased Some old growth OG fems With the date 12–21 on the package a little over a month ago. Had no luck with these no matter what I tried. One managed to germinate out of that pack of 10. So I contacted them and they promptly sent 10 more of the same strain. Couldn’t get them to germinate any better than the first 10. And I tried scuffing, soaking, etc. one started to germinate and I managed to nurse it along and it might make it. I paid 150 bucks for the original ten.There is something amiss with these seeds. You shouldn’t have to have a PhD in plant biology to pop a few seeds. I had their PO Box so I figured I’d offer to mail them enough money to cover the original replacement shipping and return the unused problem seeds if they would consider sending a different strain as a replacement. And I would cover the cost for shipping on that also. I emailed them twice with that offer but never received a response. I guess the moral of the story is never let them replace bad seed with bad seed. Just keep this in mind the next time you see their product For sale on the shelf. They don’t sell their regular inventory online, but only through dispensaries and such. Their motto is, your success is our success. Right. This is just my experience with this particular strain. All of the others may be great but something is up with this one. Good luck, Growers. Update. September 24, 2022. The results from using HSC product has been more than satisfactory! Despite the rough start I am glad I chose this company’s product to work with. I would highly recommend them! The results have been phenomenal! Thanks, HSC!
Could not be happier with their products. Great genetics. They know what they are doing out there. Give them a shot, you won’t be sorry.
I had a problem germinating a pack of seeds that came from their bank. The retailer linked me to HSC and they immediately sent me a pack of the same strain that popped almost instantly! Not only did they do that but they also sent a pack of one of their hot new strains that are just as vigorous! There is no better customer service anywhere IMO! Humboldt Seed Company is the best! Shout out to Hannah!
