‘x’ is a cross between two strains, female (the plant that receives the pollen) parent first.
‘Bx’ is a backcross, so one of the parent strains is the same as a grandparent. This is done to make offspring that is genetically closer to that parentage.
We ONLY sell autoflowers! All of our strains & freebies are autoflowering and feminized.
Our lines can briefly be summed up as follows:
Originals: Where it all began. Strains that put Mephisto on the map and the basis for many of our Artisanal strains that followed.
Artisanal: What we see as the pinnacle of our breeding efforts, using established photoperiod strains and creating the cutting edge of modern-day automatics. Selectively bred until at least F4 before release.
Limited Editions: Strain crosses from our offerings, they usually start life as Illuminautos or exclusive freebies, produced with the idea of a longer run than Illuminautos.
Illuminautos: F1 crosses of our strains, produced in lower numbers as one-off crosses. Our most popular Illuminautos often find their wayback into the catalogue as Limited Editions, or even Reserva strains.
Reserva: When a Limited Edition or Illuminauto is just so good it needs a permanent place in the catalogue, it finds its home here as a Reserva strain.
Medicinal: Just that. CBD strains developed by us for their medicinal benefits.

Meph Math is our term for how many extra seeds you get when you order! We can't guarantee germination of live products for obvious reasons, so we make sure that we add extra seeds to each pack to make sure everyone has the best possible chance at growing some top-shelf genetics!
There are three ways you can use to double check.

I’m afraid not. If you'd like to buy new items, you'll need to place a new order.
We are really sorry, but we are not able to combine orders. Once orders are placed they are going straight to our new packing system and we can't add additional items to it.
You can log in to your account to see the status of your order. It will be marked as one of the following:
- Unfulfilled: This means we have received payment from you and your order is in line waiting to be packed and shipped.
- Fulfilled: This means your order has been shipped and a tracking number is available for you. You will receive email notification of this status along with your tracking number.
If your order has yet to be sent out, please send an immediate email to us via our Contact Form, or reply to your order confirmation email. If you order has already been shipped you will need to contact the shipping company as soon as possible.

Our freebies are provided as a courtesy in a lucky dip manner. We will do our best to give a variety on higher freebies tiers, however freebies are often limited in quantity and therefore we CANNOT guarantee a mix. Freebies are calculated on the total sale EXCLUDING the shipping cost. The use of discount code could result in a lower freebie tier. Freebies can be anything from our current catalogue, extinct or out of stock strains, or exclusive freebie crosses!
Possibly, but not always. If it is a current or past catalogue strain, the information will be on our website. If your freebie is an exclusive freebie cross, these are F1 and untested so we don’t have information on them. If you grow them out and want to provide that information though you can do through our Contact Form. Some of these crosses may find their way into the catalogue if enough people love them!
Yes, all of our offerings, including freebies are both automatic and feminised.
All of our orders over $30 come with freebies! Freebies are F1 crosses of two existing Mephisto strains, we have a selection available that change month-to-month. Freebies are always lucky dip and are automatically added by our packing team when your order is getting ready to be shipped out. We give out a different amount of freebies depending on your order value, you can check out the Freebie Tiers here.
Our freebie tiers are as follows based on a single order and do not include postage:
$30 – $79.99: 2 free seeds
$80 – $139.99: 5 free seeds
$140 – $194.99: 10 free seeds
$195 – $244.99: 15 free seeds
$245 – $289.99: 20 free seeds
$290+: 25 free seeds
All amounts are calculated with our base currency of USD. We don’t currently offer additional freebies for orders with a higher value, you can always place multiple order to maximise your freebies though!
Each month we feature a new batch of freebie crosses. These are shown above and in our freebie bubble on the homepage.
Freebies are automatically added to your order when it’s packed and shipped by our team depending on the order value, excluding shipping.
Freebies are in prepacked vials, unfortunately, we can’t add a single seed or combination of seeds other than those that are prepacked.
All seeds in each vial are the same, so if the label is ‘Mango Smile x Samsquanch OG’ then all seeds are a cross of Mango Smile and Samsquanch OG.
We currently accept the following credit/debit cards - Visa, MasterCard, American Express, JCB, And Discover.
It isn’t always obvious to us why a payment was declined. It could be something as simple as using the wrong billing address, or something more complex such as your bank restricting which regions you can purchase from.
These are pending payments - your bank will assign funds that were to be used in the order transaction. These funds will be made available to you once our payment provider communicates that the transaction was declined to your bank. You can usually contact your bank to have these funds returned quicker.
Our base currency is USD. Your bank will deal with any currency conversions on their end, this could lead to minor discrepancies between your order total and what your bank eventually charges you.
To process card payments, we use Authorize.Net with ourpartners: URB Sciences Inc. so you will see them mentioned on your cardand/or bank statement.
We aim to ship all orders within 10 business days of receiving payment. Also, sometimes delays can occur when we receive large quantities of orders at the same time.
At Mephisto Genetics we pride ourselves on our quick service. You will receive a Canada Post tracking number once your order ships. Canada Post usually delivers within 3- 10 days, but with COVID allow up to 21 business days.
Unfortunately though, delays are outside our control, so if your order status has been updated to: Complete and you have still have not received your parcel after 21 business days, please first inquire at the Canada Post office/website with your tracking number. If you do not get satisfactory answer from them, reply to your order email, with the reply from Canada Post and we will try and sort the situation out as soon as we possibly can.

Freebies are only applied to an order when redeeming a Gift Card. Adding a Gift Card to an order of other products doesn’t increase your freebie tier.

Our Piggy Points system was introduced in January 2023, so only orders made after this date are eligible to earn Piggy Points.
You can use the slider at checkout to apply the amount of Piggy Points you want to for your order. Click on Rewards at checkout to make it appear. You can apply them in increments of $1/5000 points to a maximum of $20/100,000 points per order.

Piggy Points are our in-house loyalty points! You earn Piggy Points for every dollar you spend and you can use them to apply a discount at checkout for future purchases. We introduced Piggy Points in January '23, so any orders made before this won't have earned any!
Seeds are live products so need to be treated so with due care and attention. In our care they are stored correctly and have a shelf life longer than the time between reproduction runs.
Before leaving our facility seeds pass several stages of quality control, and are subjected to at least two germination tests to ensure viability. Only once we see a germination rate higher than 90% do any seeds leave our facility for general sale.
WE DO NOT GUARANTEE OR WARRANTY OUR SEEDS!
There are many conditions whereby 90% germination rate will not be achieved, as mentioned above they are a live product and we're not thereto assist with germination once they are in your hands.
However for all Mephisto Genetics direct orders we include extra seeds per pack and freebies with all orders to give you every chance possible to get successful results from our company. Think of these freebies and extra seeds as a friendly insurance.
And these freebies are also not guaranteed, and we are under no obligation to replace any orders.
Returning your order
We would actually not wish for any seeds to be returned by post, as the journey though the postal system can be detrimental to these delicate live products.
If you have any problems with your order then we suggest you contact us using the Orders and Returns page and (if possible) send us photos of the package and merchandise that has the problem, this way we're able to rectify the situation a lot quicker.
