My ultimate argument is where do synthetic seeds sit in the legal system,,??????? ¿????? ¿?????? ¿??????


you can induce embryogenis synthetically,, what is the difference between sexualy reproduced embryos and synthetically produced embryos,, synthetic seeds could also have a seed coating,, they could basically look like normal seeds,,, im talking about seeds with anti pathogen coating and colour coding,,

Whatever their colour, seeds are legal till you germinate them and they produce a root. The root is the basis for prosecution on cultivating charges.

Same with plant cuttings. UK law doesn’t count unrooted cuttings as plants and doesn’t include them in cultivating charges. They don’t have any THC either so they aren’t counted as a controlled drug either.

On this basis, TC explants, with no roots or THC, MUST have equal status to unrooted cuttings. I bet you’d be fine.

TC offers, uniquely, the means to keep cannabis genetics in that legal twilight indefinitely, without maintenance or further development into a prohibited plant. It’s a game changer for collectors.

I have been in court where someone was charged with 27 cuttings, 3 of which were rooted. Total weight in the paper bag by weigh in, 7.03g


A seed is defined in many texts, and whats being spoke of here isn't a seed, it's closer to a cutting. Possession with intent seems likely.

That's a really cool way of getting into it bro,, I'm just waiting till I can afford all the kit to send out to people,, but there are many ways of learning how to start,,,

One of the best ways is the bill graham tek,, he does youtube. Vids and has a nice cheap kit on ebay to get started,, it's not true tissue culture but he absolutely nails microcloning and surface sterilisation witch is basically modules 1 and 2 in my kit

Me too. Just found and read the whole thread. But I do remember seeing the pics from 4/20 in another three somewhere.

This would be perfect for a small grower like me. It's hard to keep all my favorites, plus try something new, and tryout some of my own crosses when I only have one tiny bloom chamber.

Great thread ER!

I was thinking of doing a kickstarter,,, but it needs a lil refinement first

i have backing from Dr Cali Seaman of shogun and blue lab,, only issue is she's a lil ill at the moment and she isn't able to put effort into it right now herself, so till the pressure is off her with the daily routine,, (she has epilepsy) ,, any thoughts?
