 Nirvana Seeds (Never mind the fact they sponcer here)

I just wanna remind you guys of Nirvana. I've grown just about every breeders seeds (except stupid bullshit like doggie nuts) and I've always been impressed with them.
Now what they do is make there own versions of others strains they don't make F2s. Often they come out better then the original. (Papaya being better then the original KC Brains Mango as a example)
So for people on a budget and want buds as good as any other Nirvana will do ya up right.
Also now that I think about it (stoned on Man Eater right now) Mandala Seeds will do ya up right too esp for what they charge. (Look into Hashberry and Satori) 
You don't need to spend a 100 bucks a pack to get buds that are like they came out of a pack of 100 dollar seeds.

I wonder how they reproduced or made their own versions of Haze, Northern Lights, AK-47 er AK-48, White Widow, White Rhino, and Bubblegum er Bubblicious if that is the case.
Saying there strains are quality doesn't take much convincing, but are you trying to say that they produce all these strains to emulate familiar strains on the market?

Yes.
Say a certain strain a cross of Skunk#1 and Afghani#1 and is called Super#1 and it's made by Sensi Seeds. They get their own Skunk#1 and a Afghani#1 and make there own version of it and give it a slightly different name like Super Duper#1.
Myself I started like this. I would find out what made a certain strain then try and make the same strain but do it better if I could.

just looked at them and they do have amazing prices. Like 25 bucks for a ten pack of white widow.

Supposing that is the case, I think I'd be more inclined to buy knock off F2's of White Widow than a crossing of similar parents called White Widow.

Normally that may be the case but the head breeder at nirvana now is a guy named Neville Schoenmaker. He and Ben Dronkers developed the original NL#5. He's the founder of the Cannabis Castle in Amsterdam (run by Sensi Seeds now which is owned by Ben Dronkers) Neville also founded the Seed Bank which was the first seed bank in Holland.
Lets just say Nirvana has a ok breeder there.

Once they get their auto flowers stable, I will probably support them.
I had one question though, is all of their shipping free shipping or only annon shipping?

I'm not sure to tell ya the truth. I'm sure it's easy enough to find on their site.

Neville must be one elusive bugger. He's apparently been grounded from flight and resides in Australia. He's been battling in court for the last ~5 years or so.
I'm not positive, but it sounds like he may be being monitored. Sounds like he's keeping a very low profile as of late.

Nevil asked me to post this on his behalf.
Quote:
I am not associated with Sensi Seeds in any way. I did breed for them from '94 to '96. I'm not likely to do anything for Ben Dronkers again, because he refused to pay me for the last 3 months work that I did for him. Ben did not have anything to do with the development of Northern Lights, nor am I aware of him having bred anything at all. Ben did own Sensi Seeds prior to buying my house and business off me when I was in jail. Nothing of Sensi Seeds ended up in the Sensi Seed Bank catalogue and I would know. He is not the founder of Cannabis Castle, nor is it in Amsterdam. Magash is ill informed and can't even spell my name.

Yeah I was way off on that one after doing some research and making a few calls. I mixed up the cannabis castle (just a house) with the cannabis museum.
Sensi Seeds have breed Afghai#1, Shiva Shanti 1-2, Fourway#1, Jack Herer (The Strain), Silver Pearl, Super Skunk but I'm sure Ben Dronkers didn't have anything to do with the breeding he had a bunch of lab rats do that.
But if you wanna get real the best strains come from right here in the U.S.
Skunk#1, The Original Big Bud, Bubble Gum, Northern Lights, Haze, Blue Berry, G-13.
Let alone the new strains pumping out of the Med Scene nothing out of Europe comes close to touching them.
Granddaddy Purple, Erkle, Trainwreck, Diesel, OGKush, Bubba Kush, The Purps, Green Crack.
The guy from Positronics started Nirvana and does there breeding.
I'm not sure about the not getting paid by Sensi thing but with the tight ship they seem to run there I'd think that if he didn't get paid for 3 months work there must have been a pretty damn good reason for it.

Yeah it was a pretty bad mistake. I'd imagine Ben Dronkers would be pretty pissed if he saw I put Nevil in the same class as him.

When put into context the mistake Magash made was completely irrelevant to what shroomjew told you to trust Magash for.
He was talking about trusting Nirvanas genetics, regardless of who the breeder is.
Or maybe your calling Magash the nut hugger?
If Magash says he has grown the remade genetics of nirvana and they are fine, I would believe it.
Pretty sure no matter who you buy the white widow from, the seeds will vary in genetics, even from the original breeder, so you are always going to have some variants in seed.
I've seen white widows give off purple buds while I was looking for purple widow grows. So there is variants in there.

Yeah, I think Nirvana rocks, for the prices, the quality is right up there with some of the best. I have plans to grow out some more of their stuff in the future.
