For some reason, my tomato germination rate with your seeds isn't as good. One year I used 1 yo seeds, but this year I used new seeds. There are a couple varieties that just don't germinate well, yet... See more

This company is bad.

This company is bad.. really BAD! The seeds I ordered ($30) worth none of them sprouted and as a hydroponic farmer i'm setting up the most ideal and pristine environments for these seeds to germinate and live in. Yet nothing.. not one sprouted. I contacted the company to see if maybe they were old or if they could help resolve the issue and they replied once to ask how about the growing conditions. I sent them my detailed log of pH levels, water temps, nitrate solution, EC everything. They never replied back and have stopped any communication with. Please avoid this company they are unprofessional and do not stand behind their product.

I’m hoping this review will at least help others avoid the customer service nightmare

I’m hoping this review will at least get me SOME kind of contact with the company. I ordered some seeds late last fall for this springs planting cycle and ended up having to replant 3 times over the course of 2 months before I gave up and purchased the exact same seeds from another company, of which all came up quickly. Please note I have been growing my own produce for 7 years and have never purchased from this company before. I have now tried 5 times total over the course of two weeks to reach out to the company both via email and phone calls with zero response. I am extremely unhappy both with the seeds I ordered (oddly enough the “free sample” pack of seeds I got all sprouted quickly) and with the blatant lack of any kind of customer service I have experienced. Will most likely never purchase from this company again.

MY GO-TO SOURCE FOR SEEDS

I will always be a customer of SeedsNow. I am always totally impressed with their service and products. Unbeatable! Sprouts are a most important part of my raw foods diet, and SeedsNow is my go-to source for seeds

Seedsnow blocks negative reviews

I like SeedsNow's sample packs, and their seeds are usually great. When it came to reviewing my purchases, my 5-star reviews showed up immediately on the website, but my first negative review never appeared, despite multiple tries. They did not respond to my inquiry as to whether they block negative reviews. It's clear now that they do, and browsing the internet I'm not the only person with this experience. This destroyed any trust I had in them.

Great products and fantastic customer service

I've been gardening for three years now. I got my first batch of seeds from SeedsNow, and I'm so glad I found them when I did. They've got a wonderful website with a wealth of information (but not overwhelming and intimidating for a new gardener) and a huge selection of seeds. Shipping is prompt, customer service is friendly and responsive, and most importantly...my seeds grew!

You Can't Go Wrong

I am a very amateur gardener and have never started a garden from seeds. I LOVED that I was able to identify my growing location on the website and it only showed me plants that I could grow reasonably well. It took a lot of the guess work out of it.

I received my seeds promptly along with clear, simple instructions for planting and care.

I loved the personal touches, like the hand written "Thank You" on my order and the follow up email from a real person asking how planting was going. I feel very confident if I had any trouble with the ordering or planting process I would receive fast, quality customer service.

As far as the actual product goes, I have a bunch of seed trays with tons of healthy sprouting plants that my three-year-old is ecstatic over, as am I. We may have to build more planting beds.

I will 100% be ordering from SeedsNow again.

Great selection and friendly service!

SeedsNow is the main place I buy my seeds for the season because they have such a huge selection! Their app is really easy to use. I can get both cool season crops and warm season crops in one place, so that makes it much easier to get everything I need. They also have a nice selection of flower seeds, and everything is so reasonably priced - whether you buy in bulk or are just sampling. Every time I order, I always get a hand-signed note on my receipt, and I love that so much! I can always tell they put a lot of care into packaging and shipping, and they always check up to make sure everything arrived safely. A++++ store!!

SeedsNow is great!

I ordered a large variety of their sample packs of seeds for my container garden this summer. Their shipping was prompt, even though it is busy season, and their customer service goes above and beyond to make ordering with them a great experience. I will definitely be ordering from SeedsNow again!

Quick delivery from California to New Jersey, with USPS tracking

1st order here. 6 days from order to delivery via USPS with a weekend in between, I belong to a Community Garden with 10' X 20' lots. Sample packs @ $0.99.each. $15. worth of sample packs provided more than enough seeds to fill my garden., More varieties and less cost than the competitors' stands at Lowe's and HD..

Great company!

This is a great company that always ships orders promptly and checks up on you after every order. I will order from them every time, hands down.

Great

I ordered 15 different types of seeds for my garden. Everything came as expected and came quickly. I appreciated the hand written note in my order. I would recommend to friends and will order from them in the future!

Easy Peasy

Seedsnow.com was recommended to me for quality seeds from my cousin who has been gardening for a few years now. The website is easy to understand, easy to add to cart, to review cart and check. I also like, the "recommended" products during check out - I had no idea about the starter soil pods to help start sowing my seeds! My seeds came in quicky and although I didn't plant right away, I did open my package to verify my order was accurate. This is my first season to garden and I can't wait to share this experience with my son (who turns one today)!

Great Company!

I have ordered seeds from Seedsnow for several years and have always been pleased. Large variety of seeds to choose from and the package size choices are perfect. Great prices, quick shipping, helpful website and always a nice personal touch!! And obviously, important too is that I have had an extremely high germination rate from all the seeds that I have received from them.

good experience

It took a little time to get my order but they let me know ahead of time that they were swamped and I would get it very soon. I think I got it 2 days later, not bad. They offer a good product and I especially loved the little note tucked in saying "Happy planting"….Id buy from them again

Personal and Responsive

This is my first experience with Seedsnow and I could not be happier. I was looking for an affordable and reliable company to procure non-GMO seeds and not only is their menu vast but the options for seed-count is very helpful! The shipment arrived with a personally signed note on the manifest and a follow-up email as well! They are my "go to" company for my gardening needs.
