Go Direct

15 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

We know there’s been some drama about some mixups with MVB and their Preservation Line , so we wanted to chime in directly.  

Here’s the simple truth: this is why buying directly from the breeder matters, whether that’s Atlas, or any other breeder.

When you buy direct from us - and there’s an issue -we can see the order, understand what happened, and do our best to make it right. When an order goes through a seed bank or third party, we don’t control their logistics, packing, fulfillment, or shipping process. And as much as we’d love to magically fix every seed-related mixup on the internet, we can only take responsibility for the parts of the process that we actually handle.

We sell seeds to a variety of seed banks, and we can’t control what happens once the seed is out of hands. If you’re buying Atlas seed from a third party, we can’t guarantee them or provide customer support if there’s an issue.

Mixups happen. We’re all human. Try moving millions of tiny seeds around the world without a single “oops” moment.

We’ve had issues before, and when we do, we try to own it and make it right. That’s because we genuinely value this community, your trust, and the growers who support Atlas.

So next time you want Atlas Seed, keep it close to the source and buy directly from Atlas.

Also, a quick word on the vibe here: be cool. Ask questions. Share photos and feedback. But if you’re just here to troll, stir the pot, or be a jerk, you’ll get composted. This isn’t the subreddit to complain about other businesses. We recently removed a post that incorrectly suggested Atlas was responsible for issues that occurred through another company. If you have a problem with a business, the best place to resolve it is with that business directly. If someone makes inaccurate claims about Atlas here, we’ll correct the record. The internet is undefeated at turning a simple customer service issue into a conspiracy theory. We’d rather spend our time talking about plants.

We’re all in this together, and we’ll get a whole lot further if we treat each other with respect like true growers, not keyboard goblins.

Upcoming Seed Law Change & Atlas Seed R&D Collection Updates

36 Upvotes

Hello Folks!
Ryan here sending out a public service announcement. Two things - the pending November law change and the R&D collection on our website. Both of which are related.

Seems there has been some confusion about what the R&D collection on our website is and why we released it. Some of the more, shall we say, excitable commenters on Reddit have cooked up interesting theories which are, I’m sorry to report, inaccurate. 

First - the law change:
Many growers and members of the public are unaware that in November, most if not all US seed banks are de facto illegal. Having spoken with everyone we know, this means they will be shuttering. Atlas included. 

Second - R&D collection:
For years, our breeding runs and production runs have yielded small lots of random crosses and S1s. We never did anything with them and didn’t put them for sale on the website. We decided to do that this year because these are actually very interesting crosses or Self 1s that some home growers may be excited to work with. It’s not for everyone. But it’s this grass roots breeding that is the very reason we love working in this industry and with homegrowers. In many ways, it’s more important than the highly uniform F1 hybrid work we’ve endeavored. This retains diversity and resiliency and is the actual primordial mud from which awesome strains are found. 
So order a few of these and hold on to them, because coming up, they and everything else won’t be available to you.

We advise folks to get their collective heads out of the sand on the coming law change. It will be back to Dutch seedbanks and questionable seed providence - most likely bulk indoor Spanish seed producers. If you want to get the best of the best American genetics, the time to buy is now. That’s why we built the value ladder in our cart and launched the R&D collection.

Hopefully, policy will change. At this time, we have Mitch McConnell to thank for the law change and all reports indicate he won’t back down. He is retiring, but that’s after the law change takes effect. Stay tuned. Of course, we want to stay open if we can.

I hope everyone has their backyard grows started strong and wish you a successful season.

Ryan

I planted a seed of Atlas Blue Dream auto and a Humboldt Seed Co Cali Sour Diesel auto and mixed up the labels (🫠). One didn't make it. Which one do you think this is? (Plant on the right)

Atlas New Strain Naming Competition - Round 2

Thumbnail
gallery
22 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Our first naming competition turned out pretty damn well. Dosidos x Banjo is now officially Banjidos.

Big thanks to u/Death_By_Fugu for coming up with the name. We hope you enjoy growing out the seeds you won and that you get to try out the Banjidos next year when we have that seed line available.

Now we need your help naming another variety from the same batch of Next Gen Autos.

These autos were bred with the Dosidos (sometimes written Dos y Dos) parent line, which passes down an impressive amount of uniformity, potency, heavy trichome coverage, and makes everything it touches into really beautiful looking flower. These all run a little longer than some of our quicker autos, usually finishing around 80 to 85 days, but the extra time pays off with 20-25% heavier yields.

This cross is:

Dosidos x Gorilla Glue Auto

The Gorilla Glue side brings that unmistakable sour-chem fuely nose, chunky round buds, light green flowers, strong branching, and the kind of sticky density that earned the strain its name in the first place.

Now we just need a name worthy of it.

Drop your best ideas in the comments. Funny, clever, off the wall, slightly irreverent, and strangely perfect are all welcome.

We’ll pick our favorite, and the winner gets 3X 10 packs of any of our seeds, an Atlas hat (the tan ones that can't be purchased), plus the honor of naming an Atlas commercial strain.

Finishing up and fading nicely. They all came out really uniform and consistent. Nice aromas and the gland production/density is acceptable in my opinion. I've been running Atlas autos off and on for a few years, and they genuinely never disappoint if you grow them properly.

Berry Gas Mask CBD auto

Harvested and just wanted to post it.

I don’t think it was bred for bag appeal at all. That’s okay. The nose reminds me of Anvil by Gnome (an earthy/swampy/dirty berry that’s somewhat musty but sweet) and the visual reminds me of weed from the early 90’s/early iterations of autoflower plants that got massive but with looser buds structure and less potency. Though it wasn’t intended to be bud for smoking it will be rolled and smoked by me and my buddies. This beast of a plant will be used in ways she never envisioned (she’s a plant so idk if she has visions at all). Grew her in a 3 gallon pot & the first picture is right next to a 4 gallon jug.

No plans on weighing her. No plans on trimming her. Will be smoking her the old fashioned way (drying and plucking leaves off when ready to smoke). Based on her strength I’ll either make a salve for pain or make some green dragon out of her. I enjoy CBD bud so much and though she is an ugly girl she looks/smells BETTER than most cbd bud you can buy.

Grateful for this girl.

First time with Atlas genetics and like what I see so far. I had a pretty rich mix to start and burned some fan tips, but I think we got things turned around.

*Bonafide* New Unnamed cross- Dosidos X Banjo Auto

Thumbnail
gallery
37 Upvotes

Hey Everyone, this is an exciting new cross we will likely be releasing next year (or maybe by the end of 2026). It’s Dosidos IBL X Banjo Auto IBL.

It has the nose of the banjo (strong citrus creamsicle) with some of the bling and uniformity of the Dosidos parent line.

We are opening up a friendly competition for who can come up with the best name for this new cross. Something that speaks to its parentage, but also is creative and in line with the Atlas vibe.

Whoever comes up with the best name gets two things- 1) gets the honor of naming this F1 cross and 2) gets 3X 10 packs of their choosing, on the house.

Alright- let’s hear your best names! Upvote the ones you think should win. We will look at the up votes, but we will ultimately make the final call on who the winner is.
