I happen to agree with most of the ppl here saying the points are seedssupreme's way of giving you a refund. BUT the only way to find out is for you to go to the website and put seeds in a cart and try to apply the aforementioned points. If the total goes to 0 its free 
let us know how much they gave you in points...

Welp i just went to seeds supreme and i read about the kush points. This is copied from their site: "
Kush Money burning a hole in your pocket? Must be time to spend it! You'll receive a £1 discount for every 200 you redeem.
Any time you place an order you can redeem some or all of your Kush Money against the cost of your seeds (up to 75% off your order total!"
So it wont be free no matter how many points you have. But plz let us know how many they gave you. It would be real evidence for feelin like they did or did not reimburse you dollar to dollar

Its a seed. Not rocket science. Put soil in pot, poke hole, insert seed, pat down soil and good to go.
Fresh seeds can open in a matter of hours from receiving moisture and sitting in water will kill them.
I plant hundreds maybe thousands of seeds every year. Everything from cannabis to vegetables to flowers. Best thing to do is plant them and forget them.
They don't need your help, they are designed to grow.

Why?
The tap root grows many fine root hairs. The more steps you add to the process the more chance those root hairs get damaged. That damage allows a place for pathogens or bacteria to enter.
If you put one in a paper towel and plant one straight to soil by the time the one breaks soil it will have a 4-6 inch root. The one in soil will get bigger faster. Try it out and see.
Only pot growers and fifth grade science class use paper towels.

I had been eyeballing these in a cedar box for years. Dude gave then to me. I gave him a $100 anyways. I know the seeds to be over ten years old and the guys said some are 20-30 years old.
I popped a couple just to see and they seem to be good to go.

It's amazing how long they can stay viable isnt it? We found some in my uncles freezer that were dated 25 years old, 7 out of 10 popped no problem. How do you store your seeds ? I store mine in an air tight vial with silica beads to suck up moisture

ive read articles about date palm seeds found in egyptian tombs that were still viable after 2000+ years. i think in the right conditions these seeds are time capsules...

In a air tight container with uncooked rice. Store in cool dark place. Basements rock for that.

Papaver Somniferum. Opium poppy. Legal to buy, illegal to lance and process opium. I got some seeds too. Figured I could make my own pain medicine if I needed to.
I use solo cups for some. some I plant straight to 5-10 gallons pots no problem.
I have noticed the ones that go straight to a bigger pot are slower in the beginning but will out grow the ones started in small pots or cups.

happens to me all the time, sometimes it's my fault, you see you think you have it dialed in but there are things that we dont always control, I pop my beans in the same cupboard and for some reason, like once out of 20, beans wont pop, might have to do with the timing, temps, I dont know what, but it happens with my beans, same batch of beans with get 10 out of 10 2 weeks later. Also, I always always have way better results with my seeds. When you order from a seedbank, especially an older variety, it is likely that the seeds are as old as the variety and if they were not stored properly at any point they might not be viable anymore. It's too easy to blame the breeder or the seedbank but know that the seedbanks are all trying to build reputation for selling legit seeds from actual breeders and if they start selling seeds that are not from the breeders they will go out of business really quickly........
