Where are my prepaid seeds?

Jun 14, 2019

I paid for a whole year subscription. I have yet to get this month's seeds that were supposed to be sent at the beginning of the month. I have canceled this subscription but still expect to get the rest of the seeds I paid in advance for.

Nice idea, but...

The seeds have been mailed out when they are supposed to, so that's good. But in two months, I have received 3 types of melon seeds (2 of which are watermelon). And I just don't have that much space, nor do I love melon that much, at the exclusion of wanting to receive seeds for other things I'd like to grow. Also, the instructions they sent with the seeds were partially incorrect; they sent instructions for peppers instead of for one of the melons.

I've realized that I probably just need to be able to choose my own seeds suited to my growing space and what I actually want to grow and eat.

Now my problem is that I can't figure out how to easily modify or cancel the subscription, which gives me even less confidence in the whole seed subscription model. I've emailed UOG and they have not been responsive so far. I hope I don't have to go through the headache of contacting my card company to get the charges to stop.

Not worth the money.

I've received 2 shipments. The amount of seeds is simply ridiculous. Buy your seeds at a gardening shop and you will save a lot of money!! I could not believe that for the spinach I got about 15 seeds. That's not enough spinach for one person for one meal! Shipping these items costs about a dollar and we are charged more than double that. Sorry, I'm calling it quits here.
