My beans finally came in the mail! I ordered from BC Bed Depot last May but I finally got 'em. I had ordered from someplace else finally but these came fitst. To that other guys who also didn't get theirs from BC Bud, I can only say maybe you will sometime. I did complain with a threat that I would report them to VISA (I never really meant it though). Anyway, they came packed in what I can only describe as like a piece of cardboard, only it's plastic. Like a honeycomb thing. Then each seed is inside has like a wire cover wrapping and then also the ends are wrapped in cotton swabbing. They look like 1/2" colored Q-tips. I've started to cut up that plastic sheetb thing, but I'm afraid to go further fearing I might damage something. Does anyone know how to unpack them things? Also they are Redondo Red Hair strain. I originally planned to grow outdoors. But now it's too late and also I built a cool grow box. So has anyone ever heard of that breed? They don't even sell them anymore on threir website and a search came up with a bunch of nothin' on Yahoo! As you can probably imagine, I'm kinda anxious after 3 months. I probably still can't harvest till after Christmas. And thats if everything goes right and "the river don't rise". Please help. How do I unpack 'em?

Damn 3 months huh? I've never heard of that strain, maybe you can find something here, www.breedbay.co.uk Also I'm sorry I can't be of further help with your package dilema as I've never ordered from BC bud depot and I'm far to stoned to fully understand your question about the 'unique' packaging. Good luck.

Well,I found 'em on there site. They are an "outdoor" seed. But I'm still gonna grow 'em indoors. They also say their 100% indica. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Whatever, I have seeds!

Never mind my freaking about unpacking the beans. Somebody from the seedbank's forum told me how. They (the girls I hope) are germinating as I type. They sent me 23 cause it took so long but I'm only germinating four right now because my grow cabinet is real small. I only hope for three. And Redonda Red Hair in supposed to be good smoke and fast growing. Outdoors anyway. We'll see. I'm just like a little kid on Christmas morning. Cheered me right up after my bad-news dentist appointment this morning. I'm a "rabid anti-dentite" right now.

Maybe you keep quiet about how they stealth their seeds, ya think ? We aint the only ones who read this site I am sure.

The only thing he gave away is how they were packaged. Don't see such a security breech there. Anyway, Qdavid, have a great grow, I'll be here if you need any advice or how too's.

Growing tropical outdoor strains indoors can be a wicked pain in the ass, as they sometimes flower for a LOOONG time, but at least it's 100% indica so you aren't going to end up with some 15' sativa monster living in your house with you!

One good thing, so far, is that a grower who also bought this strain said it's the fastest flowering strain he's ever seen in 15 years. Maybe I'll be able to go 12/12 sooner? And he also said the smoke taste is fruity and good. Maybe he's the guy who sold this strain to the seedbank. Or maybe I just look for hidden agendas and ulterior motives in everything. Whatever I'll try. And I do have other beans coming if it is a big pain in the ass. But I don't know about that "tropical" thing. They were developed in Canada. I'll be posting progress, trials and tribulations, and hopefully success.
