The best American Seed Banks

Reading Time 16 minutes

• Best Spanish Seed Banks
• Best Dutch Seed Banks

 

 

The United States is the country in the world where most marijuana is consumed, although if we talk about banks there are notable differences with European seed producers.

In most of the states, citizens can’t buy weed seeds for self-cultivation and self-consumption. They are only distributed to professionals so that they are the ones that manufacture the herb for the dispensaries or companies that commercialize products with CBD for example.

Having said that, we go with the best American seed banks.

 

 

▶ Humboldt Seed Organization

Specialized in the sale of feminized and regular marijuana seeds, its name pays homage to the name of the Californian county in which the company is located. In fact, this is the most important northern area of marijuana cultivation in the country, due to the excellent climate enjoyed in that place.

One of the differences of this bank of seeds compared with others of the country, is that they only cultivate seeds whose genetics is exclusive of the mentioned zone. This is a group of growers who joined together for this purpose and distributed throughout the country, now also in ours. That’s why you can find part of their wide variety of seeds in our online store.

L.A. Gelato

The version by Cali Connection is a gourmet product, one of the most expert banks in OG could not have a mediocre Alien, and of course if you try this plant you will see that I am not lying.
