I'm up in central Canada so yeah you would be freezing your buns off right now Sounds like you like in a great place for warmth, I don't like the cold but I gotta tolerate it or I'd lose my mind.
Do you keep your seeds in the fridge? If you seal them in packets and maybe add some desiccant to them they should be fine. I had seeds that were 10 years old and all but one germinated, they were just in the fridge taped back up in the breeder pack! So I tend to not worry too much, but also maybe those seeds were fresh when I got them, older seeds could be an issue for longevity. Hell I had one pack brand new ten seeds got one plant out of them.
You guys have some decent places to order from down there, Oregon Elite Seeds has a decent following and good rep, but I have not ordered yet. Shipping is so expensive to get seeds from anywhere, and I prefer to order from places that have stealth and guaranteed shipping. But they have some fire genetics I'd love to order one day! (I just looked and they don't carry what you are interested in tho)! I don't know of many other seed banks in the US as I usually order from UK etc. Seedsman and Attitude/Choice seedbank. No, I have not heard of those breeders but they could be great genetics, only one way to find out (buy more seeds haha)!
My pips are in a safe at room temp and normal 60%+ rh. Probably should be keeping them in the fridge but have lost some my stuff from the fridge in the past when the wife is on a fridge cleaning frenzy - 1/2lb of some double strength canna butter most recently.
Yes, I have only ordered from the EU or UK in the past. Figured I would see was available on this side. I was looking at Pacific Seeds. I will have to check out Oregon Elite too. I would have expected that some seed banks had opened in Canada but I have not found any yet. I agree, have to buy more seeds to find out!! Both the strains I mentioned were highly reviewed, so may have to give those a go.
