As someone who's been growing pot in BC Canada for 20 years I can tell you that Crop king is a shady company with garbage genetics. 99% of what they sell isnt even what they say it is. I swear it's like somebody came a cross a 55 gallon barrel of bagseed and decided to start a business stealing peoples credit card numbers.

I have been ordering seeds online from Europe for over a decade. Never a problem, when my order got seized by US customs (which numerous did in 2017 for the first time ever!!) Seed Supreme and Barneys Farm shipped until I got my order.

Now, I just ordered from Crop King for the first time in the last 72 hours. The same day Crop King billed my CC a fraudulent charge was attempted on my CC for nearly $1,0000.00.
Thankfully my bank declined the charge for $1,000.00 and notified me immediately. I had my CC cancelled and a new card issued.

The strains I ordered are strains I've grow numerous times, so I'll update this forum as soon as I'm able to tell if Crop King provides me what I ordered or crap!

I cannot say Crop King did or did not have something to do with the fraud attempt, but it's important that we US growers at least spread the info out so others can make a informed choice.

I can say I'll not order from Crop King again as theirs was the only purchase I made during the time frame this fraud was attempted.

Buyer beware!

Update 3/12/19 placed my order on 3/7/19, it was delivered 3/11/19! Super fast delivery. I ordered two 5 seed packs of feminized seeds, they sent me 7 in each pack! My strains are White Banner and Durban Poison. I am very familiar with both as I've grown these numerous times.
Crossing my fingers as they start to flower these strains are true to my order.

I've used cards with almost every seed purchase for more than a decade. Serious seeds, Nirvana, Seed Supreme, Barney's Farm and more. Never had a issue, not once!
The only reason I ordered from Canada this year is because after the new US Presidential Administration took over in January 2017, my orders from Europe were constantly being confiscated.
My 1st issue with CC fraud was after purchasing from Crop Kings

FWIW, the best seed companies/breeders in Canada are PeakseedsBC and Jordan of the Islands, and a distributor website called "therealcanadaseeds.ca"
You'll see several US breeders on that last link.
The Crop king is a slimebag.

nice... I just bought crop king seeds but, not on-line. I have a store near me that sells CK seeds, so I bought 2 strains,5 packs, plus he gave me 4 free seeds, so I now have 5 early miss, 5 sour girl, 2 white widow & 2 sour diesel.

After reading this I hope at least the ones I paid for are what is on the label, the free ones who cares they free.... Now, I have no way to tell what strain I have or do not have. So all I can do is let you know after flower if they are good or crap....

OH BTW, all seeds are auto flower . . .

Let you know...

I'll definitely check these out! Thanks. Ordering from Canada was quick, got my order in 4 days! Plus packages are not scrutinized coming from Canada as they are from Europe.

Honestly I could careless if "big brother" is watching! I just want my orders to arrive and my strains yo be true to what I ordered!
California is a weed legal state, so no issues there. The confiscated seed orders from 2017, I just got a little nasty letter from customs, but nothing worse than a nastygram. LoL

maybe they put it threw as china because they can't accept American cards but "china" can... maybe that's what she was trying to explain to you... I see your point tho I won't be ordering from them, that's poor customer service.. I order from choice seed bank, from the uk and never has an issue with my first delivery.

I just registered just to share another story in regards to Crop King. I ordered from them two weeks ago, Crop Kings sends my order to wrong address and now they refuse to send me the seeds I paid for. Everytime I call they tell me your seeds will be shipped tomorrow! Buyers Beware!!!

Here is yet another story in regards to Crop King and how they will attempt to take your money if and when they make a mistake. I ordered from them around two weeks ago, Crop Kings sent my order to wrong address by their own fault, and now they refuse to send me the seeds I paid for. Everytime I call they tell me your seeds will be shipped tomorrow, which never happens! I paid for the extra insurance in case something like this occurred. God forbid you ask to speak to someone in charge, Crop Kings will insult you. I have also been spoken down to and insulated when all I wanted was what I paid for. The latest is crop kings is now claiming to have refunded my money but they refuse to really do so. I had to contact my bank and file a formal complaint. Also notice how crop kings responds to negative feedback....very immature like.Never ever get the extra insurance, and never pay cash because I am sure they will keep your money if something goes wrong on their part or anyone else's. Let this be a lesson learned the hard way. Last thing notice all similar negative reviews. Buyers Beware!!!

Only way he's the largest seed guy in the world is he eats too much gravy on too many mashed potatoes!! Crop King can stick it! I use a credit card several times with www.seedsman.com get my seeds and they re in Span. Genuine hospitality. Crop-King can go pound sand! bleeet (raspberry)

I have ordered from www.seedsman.com 3 times (waiting for 4th) and each time the shipment originated here in the U.S. not UK or other places. 2 times from CA and last time from Oklahoma. Seeds were not stealth, but packaged in original package from the multiple growers. You all know that there is no difference between a hemp seed and a marijuana seed? Neither contain any THC. Curious how this is going to play out for all the hemp farmers coming on board growing hemp.

Ive bought their seeds from a local grow store and none of their seeds germed, 2 I squeezed and they were just air. I got a run around on the phone to email a certain email with info and receipt only to be told to phone the same number and tell them the same story which they were condescending and ignornat. I would suggest finding somewhere else to buy from. It shouldn't matter if your Canadian America European etc treat customers with some respect and support your so called quality product properly. They failed heavy on both aspects so don't waste your money or time with crop king seeds.
