Fleur Du Mal Seeds

I just realized there is no thread for FDM seeds here at RIU so I thought I'd start one. There is one over at Overgrow that Baudelaire, the grower behind FDM seeds, frequents if you want to ask him questions directly. I'm not sure about the exact timeline, but Baudelaire and FDM seeds were around in the early 2,000s because I remember them distinctly from back then. They've always been known as a good source of Cinderella 99. At some point, I'm certain they disappeared before I saw them back again about 5 years ago. Don't quote me on any of that!

I highly recommend checking out their website, it's 100% legit and they are a domestic USA breeder. I've ordered both from the website, and from Strainly, and the nice thing about the website is that you can opt for free shipping if you don't want any freebies. If you pay the $7 shipping, you do get freebies and honestly, for $7 they're worth it. Sometimes I've gotten two packs of freebies in a single pack $60 order, sometimes 1. They are also a great source for inexpensive $1 practice seeds (50 for $50).

They carry some very cool genetics that are hard to find now, like ESB from Oldtimer1, or Sweet Tooth #4 from Breeder Steve (Spice of Life). They also have an interesting Indiana Bubblegum project, which will be the next pack I get from them. And of course they are well known for their Cinderella 99, Princess 88, and Durban High-Flyer. At $60 per pack, they are fairly priced and deserve our support!

I'll be growing out some ESB and Sweet Tooth #4 and will update this thread once there is something fun to show. I'm holding off on the Cindy 99 right now since the ESB is also a very potent sativa, but don't miss out on their Cindy F4s which are supposed to consist of about 50% citrus phenos. The Princess 88 also sounds very interesting for huge fans of Cindy. Does anyone else have any FDM beauties growing this summer?

I have a pack of the bubblegum, but haven’t popped any yet. Probably this spring. I plan to try the ESB as well. I’ll be following…
The bubblegum looks really good! I was stoked when I got a Bubblegum mix pack as a freebie. I started this thread just to see more pics of people growing out these classics and I love seeing so many of my favorite old strains in one place.

I posted this in my grow journal, but wanted to post it here as well. The Cindy 99 seeds from FDM were fresh and viable-I have roots emerging at 20 hours since planting the seed. The last Cindy 99s I grew were big, terpy, frost monsters and I've got a good feeling about these, they really want to get started.

Wow, I feel like I’ve been living under a rock, I had no idea about FDM beans but they look awesome and old school enough for my taste too!

plus very affordable offerings to choose from especially those breeder packs are perfect for an easy cheap pheno hunt with nice results as regardless of the phenos you get I’m sure they’ll be some dank.

I know mr soul has re released C99 but I think these old lines would be a better more original version including some of the FDM Cindy crosses which are probably killer but I could be wrong as I haven’t tried any of mr soul’s newer releases yet.

They were off my radar for a long time too, until I got the C99 itch again, then I happened to find them again through Strainly of all places. I always like to know if seed stock is fresh, so here are my C99 seedlings at 48 hours, 100% germ.

Any updates on FDM C99 ? Thank you
I've got a few seedlings going strong right now, they are looking nice and healthy and are very similar to the FDM C99 girls I grew out long ago. I'll be growing them out in my new HLG 650r grow journal (in sig) which I'll be updating regularly, and I'll be updating this thread with some choice pics too.

You will i suspect love your HLG :)
Thank you for running the C99s i will be checking out your journal.
Awesome! I'm sure I'll love the HLG too. I'm hoping for one keeper Cindy and at least one decent male. I've roped a few friends into growing some FDM seeds too, but I'm not sure what they'll run, I gave them an assortment. I wish I'd bought the Indiana Bubblegum sooner because one of them was super excited about that one (I am too). I still need to pick them up at my PO BOX lol.

Just got my Indiana Bubblegum bx2s in the mail. They use this type of packaging for their free shipping option and send them in a normal envelope. If you want the breeders packs of seeds, be sure to pay the $7 shipping, plus you get the freebies then too. I like this kind of flat packaging though, nice when you can avoid paying for priority shipping both ways, you end up saving a lot of cash in the long run. I have a feeling these are going to be really good.

That is so true, UK420 is the place to go to find info on the FDM strains. I was wondering if it's just due to Oldtimer1 being a member there years ago, and so a lot of people want to try the ESB.
