All the feds do if they find seeds coming through customs or the mail is maybe confiscate them and send you a notice of confiscation. If you're in a non-legal state it's still the feds that control the mail and they don't have the resources to bother with them. Now if you're getting pounds of drugs sent through the mail and they find them they will likely pursue things which could include involving local LE.




I remember going to the hydro store and scoping out the parking lot in case there were cops watching before going inside. We'd often park around the corner but looking back I don't see how that would have made any difference. I must have looked funny walking out and around the corner down the sidewalk with a 50L bag of hydroton. Chances are we were just being paranoid and the cops were down at the donut shop and didn't give a damn.

I've burned joints at more hydro stores than most. Lol. I'm still standing.

I got my first clones in the mail in 94
I think it was clones direct or some such

I’m not sure if you’re being serious or facetious about this. If serious, how the heck did they package them and keep them viable in transit? That was a good decade before those little battery operated LEDs were available.

I remember some of the early “ stealth “ shipping tricks and laugh about how many fucking junk phone cases my buddy has accumulated.
Or when TSSC ( no longer around so I can talk about them ) sent me an order inside a small box of marigold seeds .

PARANOIA SUCKS

Those leds dont really do anything, except make your package look more suspicious. Unrooted cuts in a ziploc bag can survive a lot longer than you think. I’ve gotten stuff from the north east coast to hawaii this way.

Put a clone in a beer cup duct tape another cup over the top
You don’t really need light or heat to keep clones alive
ECSD and chem 4 for $45 each and at the time it was a miracle to me the guy came thru

Gotta say, for ‘94 that was a frigging awesome hookup for some legendary genetics. $45 was a fair amount of coin then, but I think I paid more than that for my first 10 pack (little ziplock actually) of seeds from the Netherlands around the same time. I would have been full on terrified about sending or receiving pot plants in the mail.

The feds don’t care about your beans bro. They’ll confiscate em at customs yeah but they send you a letter and more often than not you can use that letter to get a resend from the seedbank. It’s a hassle though so it’s better to order domestically ad just avoid it. Even in non legal states shits barely enforced, weed busts are terrible pr now, even the super pro-cop bootlicker types talk shit when a department posts about a big weed bust on social media.

the public has decided, to hell with what the law says

I wish attitude used a t-shirt for stealth shipping. I paid $30 for the cheapest pair of "denim" shorts I've ever seen, couple sizes too small to boot. I bet they make more money on stealth shipping than seeds :lol:

Why does buying a t-shirt with your seeds make the shipment more stealthy?

That’s all bs, no one cares if you’re ordering seeds. Seeds are legal to have first of all

If its legal to have the seeds as some other people have said, why do some of the shipments from seed banks get seized by the government?

you didn’t do the trick where you put pressure on the cartridge and the lip kind of snap it in lol? That was last ditch effort and came like the blowing thing. I guess I saw someone else do it and passed it on in like fashion

Do they still even do that? I'm not sure as I haven't heard of it happening in a while.. But yeah seeds are legal, show me the law that says they aren't. They advertise them on the radio for sale here lol

You mean in the USA, right? I thought Marc Emery got charged by the US government for selling weed seeds or something... are you sure?

en.wikipedia.org

Marc Emery - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia.org

To quote the Wikipedia article:
American authorities charged Emery and co-defendants Gregory Keith Williams and Michelle Rainey-Fenkarek with "'Conspiracy to Distribute Marijuana", "Conspiracy to Distribute Marijuana Seeds" and "Conspiracy to Engage in Money Laundering". Even though all the alleged offences occurred in Canada, Canadian police did not lay any charges.[66]
