Vancouver Seed Bank Review

Here is my review of the Vancouver Seed Bank. Short summary: thumbs up!

Selection: 7 - They have a pretty good selection of canadian genetics, but nothing from across the pond. The genetics cover a pretty wide range of types of weed, but there may be some of you looking for 'brand name' stuff that is of course Dutch. I've got nothing against Canadain genetics tho, and you can find the canadian versions of haze, big bud, northern lights, and almost all your other favorites.

Price: 7.5 - Price is alright, you can find cheaper seeds in Vancouver if you look around, but I'd say they are pretty average or just a little high. Of course we're talking Canadaian genetics prices not Amsterdam prices, so most strains are somewhere in the $50-150 range rather than the $150-300 range for Amsterdam prices.

Service: 9 - The folks I talked to were very friendly and helpful. I got talked out of buying some Northern Lights in favor of some Lemon Skunk, which was better suited to my growing space and gave a more cerebral high, which is what I was wanting. I've grown this strain twice now and have been very pleased with it. The folks there were very laid back and open to discussing the pro's and con's of various strains that they sold.

Stealth Rating: N/A - It's a store front, they say that they sell cannabis seeds on the front door. Not very stealthy, but then again that's not what they're going for, so this doesn't apply.

Would you order from the same bank again: Yes - I'm hoping to get up there soon to get a couple more strains now that I have a little experience and feel up to a little more advanced/challenging grow.

Other Comments: If you are in the area visiting, you ought to swing by. The fact that they exist is a good thing, and if we can help keep them going, that will be good for everyone in the long run.
