Don't order seeds first of the year.Customs quota


Has anyone else had problems with Customs getting their seeds The first of the year? or holidays?

Last year my seeds were coming pretty regular. I ordered some right after Christmas expecting them the first of the year, only to receive an empty package with a customs interception notice. I guess I forgot about that when I did the same thing this year with the same results. is it just a coincidence? Could they be a little tougher at the beginning of the year?

That's the only 2 times customs got my seeds, I think. Four or five years ago an order from Amsterdam never come, I don't recall receiving anything from customs. could have thrown it away accidentally.Took a while but AMS finally made good by replacing my seeds.

Last year Seed Supreme Would not replace My $150 order of seeds That were intercepted by customs. Practically called me a liar when I sent an honest negative review. They offered a credit. Roughly 15% off next $100 + order.Lost my business.

PevGrow Replaced them promptly. I just received my replacement seeds, still less than 30 days from Placing the Original order.



They were free seeds this year. I earned $100 credit from PevGrow for Posting a grow using their seeds on Grow Diaries. It was an interesting, learning experience. I have tried to document my grows before, Then thinking I'll remember that, I'll write it down tomorrow, you Can guess the rest . This is the first time I've followed through, start to finish trying to measure and document as much as possible. Updating & Sending at least one picture weekly.




Happy growing I Luv GWE!

Thanks for the information! The more we share our experiences, the better judgements we can make. I was SWEATING my first order of seeds, on several levels. Fortunately, Seedman was patient with me and they arrived. I ordered December 9th 2019 and they arrived January 9, 2020. I used a USPS money order though. I haven't germinted any yet.

I ordered seeds from AMS about a week before Christmas and received them three weeks later. No issues here.

I had something seized by customs a few years ago and they sent a really threatening letter. Do they still do that?

Yikes.... this has me feeling very nervous... I placed an order with Seedsman last week... I hope I receive my order... I think I’m going to stop ordering overseas for a while...

I looked at seedsman and others, but thee few stories of not getting or your seed being delayed, I ordered again inside the USA. Got the seeds 2 days early (Saturday), I dropped 6 they have popped and are now planted. 100% germination so far 18 more to go.
I guess I'll stay home for a while yet, the laws will soon change in our favor.

I hope so Rwise.... I live in a state where medical marijuana is legal (it’s very expensive) but recreational is not. It’s maddening, these ridiculous laws.

Seedsman just came through for me again, ordered 1/6 delivered 1/23. Here they are with some of the other seeds I've received from them.

[CatMomma]

Yay!! That’s great FBL!! That gives me hope. I only have ordered from Nirvana and Seedsman and am happy with both places... I just hope that customs won’t interfere.

I am a bit surprised as to how many places are out of stock! That's one hell of a lot of seed sold!
