We Just Won #1 at the 2026 Grower’s Choice Awards

Thank you to every grower who voted, and to every customer who trusted us with your garden.
We’ve got some news, and we’re still a little stunned by it.
Cannabis.net just published their 2026 Grower’s Choice Awards, and after thousands of growers cast their votes, Get Seeds Right Here was named the #1 cannabis clone company online. In their words: “the voting wasn’t close.”
We don’t take that lightly. So before anything else: thank you. To every grower who voted, every customer who put their trust in us, and every person who’s ever sent a photo of a healthy harvest from cuts they ordered through our site, this win is yours more than it is ours.

What the award actually recognizes

The Grower’s Choice Awards aren’t decided by a panel or paid placements. They’re decided by growers, the people actually putting clones in soil and rockwool and watching them either thrive or fail. When that audience speaks, you listen.
Cannabis.net’s writeup pointed to a few specific reasons we landed at #1, and we want to address them head-on because they’re the things we’ve worked hardest on.
Live arrival guarantee on every order.
Shipping live plants is the hardest part of this business. Things happen in transit: weather, delays, handling. We made the call a long time ago that the buyer shouldn’t carry that risk alone. If a plant doesn’t show up healthy, we make it right. Every time. That’s not a sales pitch, it’s a baseline.
HLVd-tested mother stock.
Hop Latent Viroid is the quiet problem creeping through gardens across the country, and most growers don’t know they have it until yields start dropping for no obvious reason. We test our mothers because clean genetics aren’t optional anymore. If you’ve been around the industry for any length of time, you know how much damage one infected cut can do to an entire room.
A catalog built for serious growers.
We’re not trying to be the biggest menu online. We’re trying to carry cuts that actually run: current hype strains, proven workhorses, and a handful of harder-to-find genetics that you can’t grab just anywhere. Curated beats exhaustive every time.
A real business behind the order page.
The article called out that the brands at the top of the list “all felt like they were in it for the long haul.” That’s the part we’re proudest of. We’re not an Instagram DM and a Cash App link. We’re a real operation with real people answering messages, real standards behind the plants we ship, and a real interest in being here in five years, ten years, and beyond.

The part nobody sees: learning SEO

Here’s something we don’t talk about much. The best clones in the world don’t matter if no grower can find them. When we started, we were invisible, buried pages deep in search results while growers looking for exactly what we offered never made it to our site. Winning an award like this isn’t just about the plants. It’s about being findable in the first place.
So I learned SEO. The hard way, mostly, but not alone. I picked up a ton from Edward Sturm[/stealth], David Quaid[/stealth], and Charles Floate[/stealth], three people who actually know how search works and were generous with what they know. They helped me understand what growers actually type into Google when they’re hunting for healthy, clean cuts, and how to build pages that answer those questions honestly instead of stuffing keywords and hoping. The big lesson: publishing real information, about HLVd testing, about live arrival, about how to keep a clone alive its first week, does more for search rankings than any trick, because it’s the stuff growers were searching for anyway.
It took months of trial and error, plenty of pages that went nowhere, and a lot of reading late at night. But it’s a huge part of how we got here. Every grower who found us through a search, read a page, and decided to trust us with an order is part of this win too. Good genetics got them to stay. SEO is a big part of what got them to the door.  I even started my own SEO agency, 420 SEO, to help other cannabis operators do the same thing for their sites.

Where we go from here

Winning is humbling. It also raises the bar.
We’re going to keep doing what got us here, testing mothers, guaranteeing live arrivals, curating the catalog, answering questions the same day they come in, and we’re going to keep looking for ways to do it better. The clone market is maturing fast, and the growers who voted us #1 deserve a company that grows alongside them.
A quick shoutout to the other companies that made the top five: Clones Near Me, Clones Co, Cannabis Clones New York, and Buy Cannabis Clones. The fact that there are now multiple legitimate clone sources online is a good thing for every grower reading this. Competition makes everyone better.

Thank you, for real

To every grower who took the time to vote: thank you. To every customer who’s ordered from us, sent a photo, left a review, recommended us to a friend, or messaged us with a question at 11pm: thank you. This was your award. We just get to put it on the shelf.
