Title: Growers Wanted - Free Seeds
Post by: PlutoPete on February 19, 2012, 08:10 pm
Hi Guys,
 I want to send out a few packs of my seeds so peeps can see how awesome they are  ;D
 I've had a few requests for freebies, but cannot find any stats on the buyers so I assume they've never completed a deal.
 I want the samples to go to established members that will give a fair review after trying my beans :)
 The listing is here if you would like to check it out
 http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/index.php/silkroad/item/21428

 If anyone is willing to post a grow diary on here I'll give them a years supply of seeds  8)
 
 Any takers?

Would Devon Maid have similar provenance as my all time favourite strain, Devon Cream?  ;)

All samples have gone out for now guys, maybe more next month.
They grow really well outdoors with 3 crops a year easily achievable.

Doesn't seem like it to me.. You could say that just about any vendor on SR.

I'm quite interested in buying some of these seeds....
Regarding outdoor hardiness- would they be okay outdoors in the UK (south west) if I get them going in cold frames? How early would I need to start them off if I wanted two crops? Never tried multiple cropping with autoflowering plants- how does it work?
Also do they need pinching out to keep them little (like under 5 ft) or are the lowryder genetics enough?
I'm trying to get the garden deer-proofed before I start, the outdoor plants got badly munched last year  >:(

Sorry for all the questions, I've been growing for getting on 10 years but am still a complete amateur! cheers

The strain was developed in SW UK, hence the name. For outdoor growing wait until the last frost has gone (I usually wait till beginning of April) before planting out, cold frames are good for keeping hungry critters off.
Each crop takes 9 weeks so plenty of time for 2 or 3 crops. No Pinching or pruning, maximum height is about 3 foot.
I often make up mixtures of compost and seeds and then go round throwing "snowballs" into council flower beds, It's cool to see them growing wild until somebody realises what they are and nicks them  ;D
Did the deer actually eat your plants? my experience with deer was that they trampled and rolled in my patch, totally trashing the plants, but not eating them, bit like cats with catnip.

Thanks for the reply, I'll order some in a couple of weeks- they sound perfect for where I'm growing.
The guerrilla gardening idea is awesome, my local Councillor is a right little nazi, I'd love to hear her reaction on finding out what was growing on her prize winning floral roundabouts  ;D
Yeah the deer actually ate the fuckers while they were still vegging. I have a source of lion dung which apparently keeps most mammals out of the garden so I might give it a try.

Make sure you don't overdo it with the nutes, it's quite easy to overfeed them.
