1st batch turned out to be autoflower, which I NEVER order. I hate autoflower product. 2nd batch 4 out of 5 seeds did not germinate, the one that did germinate died before it put out first leaves. I have been growing since 1968. This company is a JOKE. They are liars and cheaters. BOYCOTT these asian jerks.

Their seeds are defective
Their seeds are defective. Out of 10 seeds 3 germinated. However, those didn't even grow an inch before just stopping altogether. So, $160 and nothing to show for it. I have been growing for decades so I know what I am doing. DO NOT BUY FROM THEM! It's more of a donation than a purchase because you don't get anything viable in return.

I want what I paid for
I expect to receive what I order. I have a mystery seed in my order and the company has been unhelpful. This is a paid for seed, that I have sent photos to the company to show them that they did not provide what I paid for and they won’t send me a seed to replace what they did. So therefore they are super expensive for seeds when you pay for something that you do not receive. They said if I purchase more they will replace the seed….. well I already paid for the seed and they are not willing to send me what I paid for. I’m sure you can find a company that will honour their products over crop king who just wants your money and doesn’t provide you with what you ordered.
I magically have two autoflower plants and I purchased feminized, I had contacted the company regarding one of these plants and in the duration of a few days I now have another autoflower.
So if you’re into a ‘gamble’ and don’t care what you grow, cool. I will never purchase from here again and I will make sure to share with strangers and friends about the poor experience with crop king as well.
All 5 seeds have autoflowered. I purchased 5 feminized zkittles. Extremely poor service and quality

Bogus genetics at outrageous prices
As another reviewer pointed out, Crop King and its affiliated websites (Sonoma, Beaver, Rocket, Mary Jane Garden, Sun West, Van Coast, etc) are total scams. They are a disservice to beginner growers. Their prices are outrageous and their genetics are totally bogus. Never trust seeds from companies that can't give you lineage information (including previous breeders). All their cookie cutter brands sell the same strains for the same prices on websites clearly designed by the same team. It is a front.
They sent a promo packet to the grow shop I manage and in that information they didn't even try to hide what was going on. It had handouts from all the above alternate "companies". They sent a few samples for us to check out and let me tell you... their CBD Cheese Auto was one of the saddest plants I or any of our staff (with over 60 years of combined experience) had ever seen.
It's also worth pointing out that they have spend a significant amount of resources to squash the genuine reviews out there by manipulating Google results with a flood of fake, cookie-cutter reviews.
Buy from reputable breeders, either direct or through their *authorized*distributors (such as North Atlantic Seed Company, Seedsman, etc). Don't be fooled by this sham. It's a total ripoff and, honestly, they should be ashamed of themselves.

Crap Kings
Well I wrote a review and yes crop king notified me but still like any other day from these folks I get lied to and blown off ... Does these people ever stop? So again if a a customer is satisfied would they go through the hassle writing reviews ECT. I'm going to say again because I know nothing is ever going to be resolved.. My shout out to the world Don't buy from crop king seeds... Pure scam

Complete scam operation run by Brendon…
Complete scam operation run by Brendon Kennedy of Newport Coast California. Crop King buys cheap seeds in bulk from Europe to resell at huge markups. Seeds are simply labeled whatever you choose to order. Strains are always wrong. Brendon Kennedy also runs multiple seed scam businesses under different names like, The Seed Fair, Farmers Lab Seeds, Sonoma Seeds, Rocket Seeds, Sunwest Genetics, UPS420.com and many, many more. Kennedy was sued in Federal Court back in 2019 for fraud and copyright infringement. Don't be fooled by the fake five star reviews. They are all written and posted by Kennedy.
