How to Avoid Online Cannabis Seed Ripoff

The brutal truth about online cannabis seed banks

Online cannabis seed banks have opened up the marijuana growing capacities around the world. Now you can order the most potent and exotic strains ever bred and have them arrive at your door in days. No more scrounging around for some crappy seeds from Mexico, or wherever, and spending all that effort to harvest some mediocre pot. For the aspiring marijuana grower things have never been better or easier.

But it’s not all roses.

Along with a small number of high quality cannabis seed-banks situated in Holland and England, there are dozens of online vendors that are nothing short of rip-off shacks.

The worst don’t have any seeds to sell but simply take your money and you never hear back from them. They profit from the fact that people who order marijuana seeds online and get shafted aren’t likely to make that fact public. There’s still a lot of legitimate fear regarding going public about purchasing pot seeds considering that ridiculous penalties are still imposed for the cultivation and possession of marijuana in many countries. So these scam cannabis seed banks never get reported and continue to take money from honest hard working aspiring marijuana growers.

Another kind of scam weed seed bank is the ones where they have listings of awesome strains but have a reputation of sending the wrong seeds, or poor old seeds that have a poor rate of germination.

For example, a friend of mine bought 10 super strain cannabis seeds last year for over $100 and not one single seed would germinate. The seeds were old and dead. What a rip-off!

Unfortunately this is not an isolated story :(.

So how to avoid online cannabis seed rip-off? Stick with long-established seed banks and wholesalers who have a sound reputation.

All the seed banks listed on this site are good ones who sell fresh seeds of killer strains at competitive prices and fast discreet delivery.

If you’re considering buying some seeds from a bank that’s not linked to from this site – how do you know it’s a good one?

 

Here are some things to look out for in a good seed bank

Almost all high quality seed banks are situated in The Netherlands.That’s because marijuana seed banks can operate there and develop some kick-butt strains without worrying about getting in legal problems. Holland has one of the most relaxed cannabis tolerating legal frame works in the developed world.

There are a number of sound seed banks in Holland that cater to specific tastes developing speciality strains. Consider Paradise Seeds or Serious Seeds for example. These are small seed banks that produce a small variety of super strains with a big reputation and following such as Chronic and White Russian from Serious Seeds.

Other reputable cannabis seed banks include Nirvana Seeds (known for its famous Bubblelicious), which has possibly the cheapest prices. Amsterdam Marijuana Seeds do their own take on traditional strains, creating new super-strong hybrids.

And then there’s the long standing Sensi Seeds, the grampa of online seed banks with well known super strains such as Jack Herer and Silver Haze.
