FAQ

What do you do to keep seeds fresh and properly stored?

We know how to keep seeds fresh up until they leave for their new owners. All cannabis seeds at Herbies’ warehouses are stored in a cool, dry environment and under stable temperatures of +4-6°С.

What if my seeds don’t germinate?

All seedbanks we work with guarantee maximum germination rates, meaning that at least 7 out of 10 seeds in a pack will germinate. However, cannabis seeds are a biological material and their ability to germinate can be affected by external factors. To achieve the best germination results, we highly recommend using the methods described here.

In the unlikely case that the amount of failed seeds exceeds the acceptable level, you can send us a claim and we’ll resolve the problem as soon as possible. You can find more detailed information below.

Please note:

  • Quality claims are accepted up to 60 days from the date of receipt of the parcel.
  • Promo and bonus seeds aren’t included in the germination rate, as these are provided for free. For example, if 3 seeds from a 5+2 pack don’t germinate, it will still count as 1 seed that didn’t germinate.
  • Once the seed has shown its root, it’s considered viable.
  • If the amount of failed seeds exceeds the acceptable level, don’t hesitate to take a photo of the ungerminated seeds and contact us at [email protected] or via our Contact Form below.

Why does the seed I have received look small/pale/etc.?

Seeds are a biological material, and it is quite common for them to differ from one another in size, shape, and shade. This should not affect their ability to germinate or yield the harvests described by their producers. Small seeds don’t mean small plants.

Therefore, the appearance of the seed may not be the reason enough for compensation. However, if these seeds do not germinate, please contact us and we will resolve the issue the same way it is described in “What if my seeds don’t germinate?”

🔥Delivery guarantees and insurance policy

If you choose the stealth delivery option, we’ll dispatch your parcel in discreet packaging. For maximum safety, we also use a trusted postal service to make sure that the package finds its way to you. You can find all shipping options here.

For certain countries, however, we have an insurance policy in place. If an insured package does not arrive, you will receive a replacement. Currently, this policy applies to Australia and New Zealand. If your shipping destination is one of these countries, please read more about it in the dedicated section below.

Please note: if the customer’s actions (incorrect shipping address, absence at the time of delivery, etc.) result in non-delivery, a replacement package will not be provided. However, you can still get back the 15 euro insurance fee.

According to our company policy, the parcel is declared lost if the tracking number has not been updated for a certain amount of time. We ship worldwide, so this time is unique to each country and based on the average delivery time for any given destination.

  • For countries with an estimated delivery time of up to 15 days, the shipment is declared lost after 15 days without tracking number updates.
  • For countries with an estimated delivery time of 15 to 25 days, the shipment is declared lost after 25 days without tracking number updates.
  • For countries with an estimated delivery time of 25 days or over, the shipment is declared lost after the number of days equal to the average delivery time. For example, our parcels arrive in Argentina in 26-30 days on average. This means that the parcel is considered lost if the tracking number has not been updated for at least 30 days.

You can find out the average delivery time to your location at checkout or by using the shipping calculator here. Delivery times may change depending on multiple external factors beyond our company's control – e.g. the pandemic situation or the Christmas holiday period.

In addition, if your seeds arrive in an unusable condition (for example, crushed or damaged), please take a photo of the problem and submit it to us via the Contact Form below. We’ll resolve this issue as soon as possible.

🔥What is the insurance for Australia and New Zealand and why should I pay for it?

Due to recent issues with customs clearance for orders shipped to Australia and New Zealand, we’ve introduced an insurance option for shipments to these countries. If an insured package does not arrive or arrives in poor condition, you will receive a replacement. The fee is 15 euro per order and is non-refundable.

If you don’t want to cover your package with insurance, simply uncheck the “Delivery insurance” option at the checkout and the insurance fee will not be charged. However, this also means that your order will not be subject to free replacement in case of non-arrival. While you don’t have to add shipping insurance to your order, Herbies strongly recommends doing so in order to offset any possible losses. Note: we provide the germination guarantee regardless of whether you have insured your shipment or not.

If the tracking status of your insured order has not been updated for 25 days in a row, an automated message with a unique link will be sent to the email provided at checkout. Click the link to fill out a replacement claim form. We strongly advise using an alternative shipping address and recipient's name to increase the chances of successful delivery.

If an alternative delivery address is not available, you can receive a refund equal to your order amount. If you want to use this option, please contact us at [email protected] or via the live chat on our website. Our customer support managers will get back to you as soon as possible and ask you for all the details necessary for a refund. You can claim a refund if the insured package is lost in transit or seized by customs. In the latter case, we’ll need a photo of your interception letter.

What if my order gets misdelivered?

Each order is followed by an automated message from Herbies sent to the email address provided by the customer. This contains the list of ordered items, bonuses, and the full address chosen for delivery at checkout. That is the exact address the parcel will be sent to, so please double-check the automated message. If the parcel has been misdelivered despite the correct address being chosen for delivery, please contact us via Contact Form below and we will resolve the issue.

Please note that if there was any mistake in the address provided by the customer, Herbies cannot be held responsible for the loss of the parcel, regardless of whether it was lost due to that reason or delivered to the wrong address.

What do I do if my parcel status is marked as “delivered” but I haven’t received it?

If the tracking number states that the parcel has been delivered but you have not received it, please contact your postal service for clarification. The parcel could still be at the post office due to them being unable to reach your location or complete the delivery. If this does not help, please contact us via Contact Form below and we will assist in resolving the issue.

At the same time, the official tracking information remains a valid reason to consider a parcel delivered. Once it is stated as “delivered”, our obligations are considered fulfilled, and our company bares no further responsibility regarding the parcel’s actual location.

Will there be issues at customs if I order cannabis seeds online?

We are constantly improving our stealth packaging solutions to prevent customs from finding what’s inside. Although a parcel can still be seized, there’s no reason for you to worry. In this unlikely case, you’ll receive an interception notice from customs. Take a picture of it and send it to us – we will provide a replacement package.

Note for customers from Australia and New Zealand using the insurance option: if the customer’s actions (incorrect shipping address, absence at the time of delivery, etc.) result in non-delivery, a replacement package will not be provided. However, you can still get back the 15 euro insurance fee.

What if my plant turns hermaphrodite?

The plant can become hermaphrodite if it has been stressed during any point of the growing cycle. Stress can be caused by factors such as unsuitable temperature, over or underwatering, poor soil content, parasites, fungus and mold, stressful transplantation, excessive foliage trimming, and many others. To prevent the plant from becoming hermaphrodite, it is recommended to maintain it in a favorable environment.

However, the hermaphrodite plant may still provide a decent harvest if the grower follows these steps:

1) Move the plant away from other feminized plants in order to prevent accidental pollination.

2) Carefully remove all pollen sacs (banana-shaped growths) from the plant.

3) Check the plant every day for new sacs and remove them as they appear.

What if my feminized seeds become male plants?

Feminized seeds are seeds with the ability to grow into a female plant with much higher chances than regular seeds. However, seeds and plants are live biological material – thus, it is impossible to guarantee a 100% female plant from even a feminized seed; the chances are about 97%. Plant gender depends not only on genetics but also on the surrounding environment.

You can increase the chances of your seed growing into a female plant by ensuring you take the following precautions:

- Provide the plant with blue spectrum-dominant lighting (70%).

- Maintain humidity levels of 70-75%.

- Maintain a temperature of 20-25 ° C during the day and 18-22 ° C at night.

- Increase the nitrogen content in the soil to 0.3-0.4%.

Another affordable and no less effective way is described by Jorge Cervantes in his book, Marijuana Horticulture. The method is to feed plants with ethylene, which stimulates the growth and maturation of female flowers. The most affordable and reliable source of ethylene is ripe fruits, especially bananas. By placing several bundles of bananas together with plants in the grow box, the plant will be saturated with biologically active substances that contribute to its feminization. Thus, the gender of the plant will be easier to determine, and it will soon begin to produce female hormones and form female pre-flowers.

Why do plants grown from the same seed pack look different?

When two seeds from the same pack grow up into two different-looking plants, this can be explained by the phenotype of the plant – most modern strains are hybrids that combine different parent genetics. For this reason, seeds of the same strain and even from the same pack may eventually grow into different-looking plants. For example, the Serious 6 strain from Serious Seeds naturally has two phenotypes – about half of the plants will have a purple tint, while the other half will have a regular green color. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean that plants will be 50% purple and 50% green. The ratio might be 4/2, 5/1, or even 6/0.

Stability of the strains is guaranteed by the seedbanks, but there can sometimes be fluctuations. Nonetheless, the chances of this happening are relatively small and should not affect the plant’s ability to grow and provide a potent harvest.

Why does the product taste different from expected?

Personal perception and impression of the product is subjective, and therefore cannot be a reason for a claim. However, you may leave feedback about this strain on our website to share your opinion with us and other growers. To do this, please find the strain’s page and go to the Reviews section. It’s also always a good idea to go through reviews before placing the order to see how growers react to the flavor and other characteristics of a particular strain.

Why won’t the plant grow after sprouting or grow as tall and high-yielding as stated?

The plant is a living organism that can be affected by a wide variety of external factors that may cause it to stop growing, become ill, or suffer heavy stress, and thus provide yields of lesser quality and quantity than stated in the description.

The yield, height of the plant, and other characteristics stated in the description are true for conditions that are close to perfect. It means that the plant can produce such results if it is properly treated and not overstressed – even a slight deviation from the proper conditions can cause the plant to grow differently or yield less.
