    Anyone have these sent to them ? It's part of a scam in getting positive reviews written up for the company. They pick a person, send them the goods, then open up an account in their name and post all positive feedbacks.

    Quoted from mcluvin:

    Like Invasion of the Body Snatchers, but from China instead of space. I'd watch that...

    I was thinking pods as well like in the movie.

    Quoted from fosaisu:

    Sadly the “brushing” scam seems most likely, but it would be pretty epic if a mad scientist had bioengineered evil mutant plant seeds and sent them to thousands of red blooded, green thumbed American gardeners. The kind of movie that would have played late night on the USA Network once upon a time.

    In a way they have accomplished this, Monsanto and their Terminator seeds.
    You have to keep buying from them as the seeds you may save from harvest prior year will not grow.
