Anyone ever try ordering seeds to the U.S. and how fail safe is it? I have been using bag seed forever and would be nice to know what strain I have been growing. Thanks for any info in advance.

Anyone ever try ordering seeds to the U.S. and how fail safe is it? I have been using bag seed forever and would be nice to know what strain I have been growing. Thanks for any info in advance.
I recently ordered a few seeds from the netherlands without any problems. They showed up in only like 7 or 8 days. Ive germed 3 of them so far by putting them in a cup of water and stuck it away in a warm dark place and all of them have popped late in the second day. I want to try some other strains after this grow so I will probably be ordering from them again. Stealthy,quick, and healthy so I give them an A+. I order White Widow btw.:thumbsup:
I tried to put the link up for the site, but its not letting me for somet reason. Dont know if there is a rule or not about doing that.
Go For it worse case you get a letter from customs saying if you want your illegal shit come claim it!!! Or it is worded similar!!! LOL Really though I have not heard any bad bad storied like DEA knocking down doors...Just do not order a lot of $$$ worth because if you loose the batch it will not be a bad hit... I had good Luck With Gypsy Nirvana's Seed Boutique I think it is cool to post it up since they are a sponsor Well Good Luck GL1Quote:

I had a cop come to my door today and tell me that i ordered seeds and that it was a felony and he could take me to jail right then ( he didnt) But it still scared the crap out of me enough to not order seeds ever again!
thank you very much everyone for the answers.. and this last answer is enough for me to consider just using anonymous bagseed. lol. Don't need any drama!
You pay your money and you take your chances...but...there something sketchy about this...:wtf:Quote:

I had problems getting them from the UK but Netherlands has always been golden. Just order to an address other than the op...

I forgot your all cops and know exactly what they do when something like this happened?. Keep ordering seeds and find out for your self, I really dont care but making your little statements about how "it doesnâ??t fit PROTOCOL" pushing an idea that im lying is whats really the BULLSHIT here!!!Quote:

Just playing... but Trance, you gotta see why people are reacting like this. While CanCom wants EVERYONE to share their stories, we do have problems with people that just sign up to spread misinformation, in hopes that it will discourage members from doing certain things, like growing or ordering products online. The majority of smokers are naturally skeptical... so cut us some slack :jointsmile: Many people on this forum also live with parents, relatives, or friends that may not agree 100% with their decision to grow... therefore if someone found internet history of seed sites, a call may have been made to police to set you straight. We just don't know. I think the main frustration people are having, is that you have been to other threads telling people your story, but offering little additional information that would help us understand WHY it all happened. Stories of experience are great, but if WE can't learn from those mistakes... they are of no use to the community, and just spark confusion and panic. It would be like claiming that a particular strain is tainted because you broke out into hives or found mold in the buds. Seriously, EVERYBODY here wants you to be safe and enjoy the boards just like EVERYONE else. You deserve that opportunity, just like anyone else. But we need to know the facts... have you ordered before, have you grown before, are you an open advocate of Cannabis, do you smoke indiscriminately with strangers, have angry ex-girlfriend/boyfriend/roommate/dealer, recently informed parents, etc...
We are ALL friends here...... and until we do actually fully understand this particular situation... I think we should all honor another members word.
Unless we find out your lying... and then ya fuckin done son :beatdeadhorse:
Your right bro! I didnt think about it like that. But i dont think any of you are thinking about it from my point. I join a great site, see other people ordering seeds with no problem, I have a problem, I let people know, and insted of a thanks for the heads up i get a NO WAY. Im not telling people they cant order seeds. All i said was beware and then i told my story.Quote:

Thanks!
are you from a small town or large city? Things happen very differently from one to the other
The smallest of small towns in Arkansas. Me and my girl were just talking about that because id really like to figure this out. There is no way im just the most unlucky guy to ever order seeds and belong to this site. But there are no extenuating circumstances that i can think of, trust me its all Iâ??ve thought about for the last two days and i cant even rap my head around it so at this point its :wtf: ...Quote:

Also, no one thinks anything of you getting package or thick "card" around Xmas. Your mail carrier is just trying to get rid of his/her load ASAP- no time to look at anything unusual! :thumbsup: So around Xmas, unless the return address reads "Skunky's Superior Sativas" :wtf: , the odds are with you!

If it was me?...I'd have Magumun P.I....look into it...:stoned:
I was thinking him or monk! Cant seem to find either of them in the phone book though :DQuote:

I have been reading this thread and had to jump in. Some know my story, nephew popped for choke turned me in. Cops wanted it to look like paypal records tipped them off. BS.
Small towns have big ears, if just one person knew you were getting seeds there you go down the drain. Good thing it was just a talk.
My time will soon be up and my beans have met with a bad fate. A family member microwaved them so I would not get in any more trouble. Like that will stop me. LOL.
Go to the DR of Chronic. They are decreet and carry many bands. Ordered 5 times with no prob's. Lost ten strains that would make a grown man cry but I know where they still are. Just waiting for me to order.
What places in vancouver?? Amsterdam cafe, 420 lounge? I went up there and the only marijuana influenced places were those?? Then again i didnt look around to much...
LOC NAR, you are a good man.

u know in a small town people may talk alot about little things. little things like the mailman can tell the sheriff about that one guy who got a package with yellow stripe that said the package has been opened by customs and that his package came from netherlands, so then the cop who aint got more important shit to do during the day comes knockin
I really doubt local police will ever be officially involved in such cases until given a warrant and having a request from top to investigate it...
customs and at the next levels postal inspector general and at the very worst case DEA will be informed in very very rare situations that i am yet to hear about, none of which involves the local patrol officer... not at least alone and in the manner he came to u
good thing is, when something like that happens, at least u can be sure nothing serious will happen, like, i would assume the guy wouldn't walk up to me and tip me off if they was gonna raid my place overnight!
Vancouver Seed Bank, on West Hastings, near Campbell Street. Nice place, very nice selection, decent prices. A "friend" has some month old Lemon Skunk babies in his closet now:) 6 beans germinated, 4 healthy plants, notQuote:

Considering they were only 50 and 75$ respectively I think they will be a bargain. I sent a printed order form and 130$ cash to an adress in Ontario, CANADA, and 2 weeks to the day later I got the seeds in a small yellow bubble mailer. They put the seeds in a small square of corrugated plastic, in the little tubes caused my the courragation. Like a 1.5 inch square piece, they stopped up one end with a cut-off q-tip and filled it with the seeds then capped the other end the same way. I germinated 5 of each in a cup of water for 3 hrs then paper towel, and in 36 hours the querkle got planted with the Cinderella99xBlueberry being planter about 10 hours later. Within 84 hours all the querkle were up and green, and the Cinderellablueberry has 3 poppin up but not open yet, one starting to pop, and one nothing yet. Querkle seems like it really wats to grow FAST!! CANNOT WAIT!:jointsmile:
BTW I may post a grow log as I get my strain stabilized so anyone interested in this grow maybe it's coming!!:thumbsup:
great to hear u got everything goin and thnx for sharing what u know... but not mentioning what is quoted above will be greatly in everyone's help on our side since i think we can all agree none of us wants to share the packaging details and who provided the packaging in public since the narcs can have access to this place as well and can take these notes!Quote:

I think that the small town thing is viable. A good friend of mine was nearly in troble for seeds after someone told on him. The FACT of the matter is that local, even state cops have no power over things like this. It is a matter that can only be dealt with by the federal govornment. THat is just hot it is. IF that local cop had even tried to arrest you, it would have been thrown out SO fast.
