So as some of you may have heard, Mephisto will not be selling direct again until "the new year" (smartly, no specific date set this time). I live in a highly illegal country which is currently waging a war on "bad mail", so whoever I make my next order from it has to be good value for money. As far as I can tell, the seed banks (even the ones Mephisto refers you to) are all basically straight up garbage, so not ordering from there is top of my list of priorities; not really into spending twice the money for half the product.
I want to grow a good, high quality, headstash. I would say the most important things for me, in desceding order: Quality of High, Bang for my Buck, Smell/flavor, Variety, Yield. All the reading I've been doing, here and elsewhere, leads me to believe that Mephisto is the only company consistently offering these in Autoflowers. Am I wrong?
Basically, seeing as I would like for this grow to be done by mid-April at the latest (temperatures here will be mid-high 30's by then), would I just be better off giving up on Autos for the foreseeable future and sticking with something like Greenpoint Seeds, trying to find a keeper, etc? Because it seems to me that starting in February (which will likely be about as early as I would get a Mephisto grow going) would make finishing in time very difficult.
Edit: Just for reference, 40 reg seeds (which would hopefully give me ~20 females, more than 1 of which will hopefully be around for a while) from GPS should run me about 150-200$ shipped, depending on strain. For the same money, I can get something like 7-10 Meph seeds plus 2-3 of whatever overstock Barney's Farm/GHS seeds any one particular seed bank decides to chip in. Doesn't seem like a good deal, tbh.
