Bought 1500 VFT seeds from this guy, what a waste. The first lot arrived in an unprotected envelope and was crushed to a fine powder. He did replace them without much trouble, the replacements and second lot both arrived in bubble envelopes. The seed has proven 100% inviable, growing nothing but mold. I am no stranger to growing VFT from seed and they were handled correctly on my end, so I'm guessing they were old and/or improperly stored. Hopefully relating my experience will save others time and money, what a disappointment to have 1500 seeds and not a single one germinate.

Wow, Tony, sorry for your troubles. I bought 1000 flava seeds from some ebay seller and none germinated so I know the feeling.

I am not so bad, i bought 200+ capensis seeds and none germinated

Probably the same guy, he lists 1000 lots of flava, purp, and minor. I was going to grab one of each if all went well with the vft.

That was the guy. I think I paid $40 for them too...ouch.
