Hey everyone,
So I never bought seeds online and I'm looking to at the moment. Is there any seed bank that you guys recommend that ships from the US? I don't want to risk any trouble with foreign shipping and customs. If I could have a local one based in Illinois or anywhere I could shop in person here would be nice too. But I'm open to any seedbank in the US.

Thanks!

I've used BC Seed King in Vancouver, Canada for about 10 years. Smallish selection of feminized seeds but some real quality and 100% germination. Their Grand daddy Purple was superb and the G13 Haze I just grew is an astonishing high. I'm about to order their Purple Kush. People in the U.S. must send them IMO or cash now. They used to accept Master Card. Not with their new face. If you're in Canada you can order with a bank transfer. Pacific Seed Bank is probably for you and like a broker for a number of seed producers. They take a number of payment methods including MC and VISA. I bought from them recently and for sending a MO to California they threw in bonus seeds. Fairly quick shipping. A couple weeks. Must warn you though that because the seeds come from various sources it's a crap shoot on quality. Their Bruce Banner #3 Auto flower seeds were garbage. Mutated, unstable, non-germinating, slow growing. Their Blue Cheese feminized are doing just fine.

Check our sponsor @TheRealJamesBean from https://www.seedsherenow.com/ based in usa and great selection of seeds 👍
Seedsherenow is a quite interesting site with a wide selection (although many out of stock). But I honestly didn't recognize a single strain on their indica list. It's a site loaded with hybrids I've never heard of before. So new out of the box that they don't have reviews yet. I like growing strains with an established reputation.

Welcome to the days of poly hybrids. It is what it is. @TheRealJamesBean do you know where I can source some Humboldt seed Company Don Carlos Reg seeds? Thanks in advance.

I got very fast service from 207 Genetics in Maine.
I got my order in less than a week.
They are a legit seed bank with many breeders to choose from.
I had to make a Venmo account (owned by paypal).
Plus they sent me a couple freebies in breeders packs.

I can only stock what the breeders give me. I don’t make them. If the breeder himself is out, there is nothing I can do. Sorry. I try and stay loaded. And a pure indica. I have some close but no, not a pure indica

I just ordered 20 seeds from Growers choice in August.
I gotta say, so far I'm VERY suspicious.
They are supposed to be 10 Super Silver Haze, and 10 Gelato.
All 20 plants are Identical! Big fat Indica leaves, identical, like clones..
SSH is Sativa. Hmmmmmm
If they're all Gelato, that would be OK, but they should be what I ordered, and if they're not what I ordered, then who knows what I got.
I hear they got good autoflowers, but I'm never using them again.
