Hey Seasick
If it was me on my first ever grow, i'd probably be questioning whether I really gave them the best chance to germ right, and whether it was possibly my fault and not the seeds, but saying that - I don't know the breeders by reputation and have never had a seed not pop.
I think you might have your answer in at least a part of your signature haha ^_^
edit .. oh and just to clarify, i'm not pointing any fingers!! haha - just saying what i would do
