of the 5 attempted to germ out of the durban poison/skunk, they all germed. (slowly, but 100% germd). But only 3 were able to sprout. Not bad I guess, but the NLxBig bud, (nirvana also) had 100% germ, and 100% sprout 10 for 10 so far. I'd save the freebies for another time if you have better seeds to use..
