Your package of seeds that come to you don't have to be 100s of $$$ to be quality, although it usually shows the breeders personal value on their hard work. Also when you decide to go with a U.S company remember that your package is a ridiculously small drop in the real Illegal drugs that flow through the postal services these days. I wouldn't stress with all the stealthy shipping and insurance they try to sell you because of this, but its your choice. I would get them sent to a place you don't plan on growing like a friend or someone though. I think the Government especially right now is more worried about the Mexican cartels Cocaine, Heroin, MDMA or molly and Crystal Meth packages coming through the mail everyday in every state in the U.S than a few seeds from our own country that haven't even been sprouted yet.
Think about this though when you do order from whatever company you pick, make sure that you research and see good results from people showing good plant pics or talking about them alot on the old RIU seed reviews post. Sin City is good stuff so is Reserva Privada and Cali Connection, Archive, BOG, Gage Green, TGA Subcool and alot of others, but screw all the watered down European/U.K strains that have been grown for years and crossed by people that really don't care as much as Americans do these days. Thats why Americans have done more crosses and better flavors with higher THC percentages and Medical CBD treatable usefulness in the U.S over the past 10 years than the yourapeon's have done in their entire time being the Cannabis Capital of the WORLD. I feel its a shame they stopped putting their heart and effort into improving the plant itself and the medicine it produces than the spectacle of Cannabis Cups and stupid coffee shops. They got blinded and side tracked by making a money grubbing spectacle for tourist to experience which is fine I think to make healthy social events promoting and places to enjoy but not to be the focus of what we are doing. Thats when the U.S grabbed the reins during the Peons escapade and confusion of what to do and raised the bar to the level the others couldn't even in their prime global locations & with their unlimited resources they still couldn't do something with all those available Landrace strains around them. I honestly believe thats why the Gov. has opened the states you see that are strategically placed in the U.S to help support our own appetite for Cannabis to support our struggling economy. Our government knows exactly what its doing and also what these states are all trying to do to fill in the gap for at least cannabis and prefer it over the alternative Cartel crap thats been happening for years. Since the U.S realized so much taxable money was being wasted on Cartel drugs and outsourced marijuana they are finally allowing a little more within the U.S to go on. Its not total freedom to be foolish but more relaxed finally. Now this creates some laws that we have to be aware of and responsible about. The states are doing more regulations on DUIs and belligerent sales in public or smoking in public is ticketed / fined or arrested which is good IMO. This decriminalizes all the little Cannabis charges but doesn't promote irresponsible behavior with our freedom. We still have to be respectful to those who don't smoke and their rights but be civilized adults while enjoying this new freedom they are allowing us. They will open more states Im sure and that is awesome and kinda tough for some growers its a double edge sword. Prices become a buyers market now.
