Sensi Seeds no longer ships seeds to Germany
Sensi Seeds has closed its online store for German customers.
After Dinafem, another major player in the seed market, had to suspend its services For now, due to a few legal disputes, this is the second major blow to European seed banks. Cologne customs officials reported last week that they had intercepted a total of 70,000 cannabis seeds from the Netherlands. The seeds, which were sent by mail, represented more than 5,800 individual orders throughout Germany.
If you visit the Sensi Seeds website using a German IP address, you will see one of these pop-ups or will be unable to check out.
«An area roughly the size of ten Bundesliga soccer fields could have been planted with that many seeds. Assuming an average yield of 100 grams per cannabis plant, the total amount of cannabis would have been just under 7 metric tons, with a street value of nearly 70 million euros,» said Jens Ahland, spokesperson for the main customs office in Cologne.
Highway420.de, a German cannabis website reveals, in fact, that all intercepted shipments are believed to have come from Sensi Seeds.
Cannabis seeds are subject to German narcotics laws, which prohibit all parts of the cannabis plant. However, criminal liability only arises when someone uses them to grow the plant. Possession or acquisition from a neighboring country is therefore legal.
Founded in 1985, Sensiseeds is now one of the world’s largest commercial producers of cannabis seeds, excluding industrial hemp.
