WeedSeedsExpress Review 2023

---

WeedSeedsExpress is a newer seed bank, with an easy-to-navigate website and a large selection of seeds. However, they have a ways to go before they will rank among the very best online seed banks. In our full 2023 WeedSeedsExpress review, we share everything we do know about this new company, so you can decide if ordering from this seed bank is the right choice for you.

WeedSeedsExpress Background and Reputation

WeedSeedsExpress technically got its start back in 2005. Their story is of a group of friends who shared a love and enthusiasm for growing cannabis coming together to experiment with breeding new strains and to share growing advice with each other. Eventually, three of these friends decided to branch out and share the results of their hard work and creativity with the world – and the WeedSeedsExpress seed bank was born.

WeedSeedsExpress seed bank calls Haarlem, a city in the Netherlands, home. Nicknamed “Little Amsterdam,” this city is located right next door to the famed cannabis haven of Amsterdam and has developed a rich cannabis culture of its own. The owners of WeedsSeedsExpress are proud of the connections they’ve made throughout Haarlem and Amsterdam that have helped them gain some traction in the local cannabis scene.

Over the past few years, WeedSeedsExpress has grown exponentially. They are now operating out of an additional New York City address and have substantially increased their reach online. While its legacy is nowhere near some of the longstanding seed banks in The Netherlands, WeedSeedsExpress is on its way to becoming a significant player.

Online Reputation

As the seed bank has established itself in the industry, its has become widely regarded as a viable option to purchase high-quality seeds online. Before the pandemic, WeedSeedsExpress seemed to be still finding its footing as an international seed bank and then had to overcome operational challenges associated with COVID-19. Now that the world has returned to a version of normalcy, WeedSeedsExpress is well on its way to building a solid online reputation.

Of course, if you look at their website, you’ll find hundreds of 5-star reviews praising the company and its strains. When you go onto grower’s forums and 3rd party review platforms, the feedback is more diverse but still overwhelmingly positive. You’ll find delivery and germination complaints, but for the most part, a WeedSeedsExpress representative follows up to ensure the order is made good.

WeedSeedsExpress Seed Selection and Quality

WeedSeedsExpress seed bank carries over 150 different strains at various price points and cultivation skill levels. Considering that they’ve been in business for under 10 years, this is an impressive selection of premium quality genetics, and more are being added every year.

Seed Selection

WeedSeedsExpress carries cannabis seeds in a wide variety of popular strains as well as many of their own creation. Here’s a look at the best-selling offerings in WeedSeedsExpress’s online seed selection:

Best-sellers:

To see which strains WeedSeedsExpress customers come back to most often, check out their Best Selling Seeds page. There you’ll find strains like:

• Sexxpot – This unique strain is an Indica that delivers an uncommonly stimulating, yet still relaxing effect on the mind and body. This strain takes its name from the marked aphrodisiac effect it has on its users!

Strain types:

It’s easy to browse seeds by your favorite strain type in WeedSeedsExpress’s online shop. Whether you prefer a relaxing, sleepy high or an energizing and creative one, you have a wide variety of strain types to choose from.

Cultivation needs and seed types:

WeedSeedsExpress.com is very well-organized, making it easy to filter your browsing by seed type, such as:

WeedSeedsExpress does not currently sell their seeds in mix packs (pre-selected packs that include seeds from several strains with similar qualities), so you may need to do some research to figure out which seeds you want to grow first.

WeedSeedsExpress seed quality

WeedSeedsExpress only sells seeds sourced directly from their own network of breeders. At this time, there haven’t been enough customer reviews from growers of WeedSeedsExpress’s seeds to attest to their quality. Though they do advertise a guarantee of seed quality, reporting a germination success rate of 96.1%, taking into consideration that seeds are, of course, a product of nature and exceptions do occasionally occur.

Here’s a look at how WeedSeedsExpress describes the storage and care of their inventory: As soon as a new batch of seeds arrives at WeedSeedsExpress’s headquarters, it’s immediately put into climate-controlled storage in sterile, dark, moisture-free cabinets. 20 seeds from each new batch are tested for fertility and germination before any are shipped to customers. WeedSeedsExpress’s quality control team uses the soaking method and paper towel method to test their seeds. Each seed order is shipped as quickly as possible (within 8 hours after your payment is received) since the freshness of the seeds can make a difference in how well they grow.

Germination Guarantee

Like the majority of the top-rated seed banks in the industry, WeedSeedsExpress has a germination guarantee. However, the exact policy is unclear. The operators advertise a 96.1% germination rate. To make up for just under 4% of seeds that may not pop, WSE throws in extra seeds with every order, excluding 3-packs.

If you want compensation for seeds that don’t germinate or believe less than 96% sprouted, you may or may not get a refund. Based on disgruntled reviewers online, you might be out of luck. In addition, the return policy states customers can’t return opened items. However, there are numerous comments online from WSE responding to negative reviews regarding germination, instructing the reviewer to reach out to customer service. So while they advertise the germination guarantee, we aren’t sure if that means you’ll get a refund or discount code, or if the additional seeds are what constitutes as a guarantee.

As a result, we recommend documenting the germination process and following best practices just in case your seeds don’t pop.

WeedSeedsExpress Deals and Discounts

Cannabis seeds from WeedSeedsExpress do appear to be a good deal for the cost, even at full price. And they often offer specials to help you get more bud for your money.

Sales and coupons

Rotating promotions like “buy 10, get 10 free,” percentage-based discounts (sometimes up to as much as 50% off), and other deals and discounts can be easily found on the sale page of their site. WeedSeedsExpress.com also has a coupon page, where you can often find promo codes that will unlock more savings. The seeds offered up at sale prices do change every week. If you follow WeedSeedsExpress on Instagram, you’ll be able to see the new sales as soon as they go live.

Free Seeds

As another fun bonus, every week, WeedSeedsExpress sends 25 free sample seeds to 5 of the people who either sign up for their newsletter or like their Facebook page. When you place an order with WeedSeedsExpress, they do throw in a complimentary additional 10% of whatever seeds you’ve ordered – to help you achieve the highest possible germination rate.

WeedSeedsExpress Shipping Information

WeedSeedsExpress ships worldwide and always uses discreet shipping and packaging to get your seeds to you as quickly (and privately) as possible. Delivery is guaranteed, which means that in the unlikely event that your seeds never arrive, or arrive damaged, your order will be re-shipped to you at no additional cost. WeedSeedsExpress reports that 95% of their shipments arrive without any issues or delays. Your seeds will be sent via regular post in extra-sturdy, moisture-proof, postcard-sized packaging with no labeling suggestive of a connection to cannabis.

Please Note: For the sake of packaging discretion and legality, WeedSeedsExpress will only ship orders containing a maximum of 25 seeds at a time.

WeedSeedsExpress’s standard, regular-post shipping is free on every order. They do offer (and in most cases recommend using) a Track & Trace shipping option, so you can see where your seeds are, every step of the way. Track & Trace shipping can be added at no additional charge to any order over 100 euros, and the cost of this service is only 7.50 euros for smaller orders. You will have to sign for your package when it arrives if you utilize this shipping method.  Track & Trace shipping is not available on orders bound for Australia or Canada. WeedSeedsExpress ships all orders within 8 hours after payment is received. Depending on where you live and which shipping method you’ve selected, seeds typically arrive within 3 to 15 business days after shipment.

Returns

If you need to return any unused seeds to WeedSeedsExpress, you may do so within 14 days after delivery. You will need to contact WeedSeedsExpress’s customer support team for specific return instructions. Once your returned order is received, WeedSeedsExpress will refund the cost of your seeds, as well as the shipping cost, within 2 business days.

Customer Service

WeedSeedsExpress does advertise a guarantee that their customer service team will take great care of you. They invite their customers to call the office any day between 7:00 – 23:00 UTC with questions about your order, for advice on picking the perfect seed or strain, or even if you just want to chat about cannabis for a little while.

There are multiple ways to get a hold of a WSE customer service rep; you can call, email, or fill out the forum on their support page. Most customers online seem to have reached a representative without any issues.

WeedSeedsExpress Payment Methods

The fastest and most secure way to pay for your WeedSeedsExpress seeds is with bitcoin or another cryptocurrency. National or international wire transfers are also accepted and take 1-3 days to process (WeedSeedsExpress has bank accounts in several countries to make this option more accessible). You also have the option to send cash via registered mail, and from most parts of the world, it will arrive within 5 days. If you prefer to pay by credit card, WeedSeedsExpress accepts VISA and MasterCard from buyers in most countries.

WeedSeedsExpress Website and Shopping Experience

WeedSeedsExpress.com is a very user-friendly site to shop. It’s clean, attractive, and easy to navigate. You can easily filter your searches by seed type, strain type, best-sellers, price, desired THC or CBD levels, yield size, and plant height. Each strain description includes detailed photos of what you can expect the buds to look like. The WeedSeedsExpress online shop is kept up-to-date so you can be sure that the strain you want is in stock before you order. The site even auto-adjusts prices to reflect the currency of your browsing location, which is a nice touch.

Additional Resources

WeedSeedsExpress provides its community with an impressive assortment of resources related to growing cannabis. You can choose from the following categories:

• Grow Guides (beginner and expert)
• Learning Center
• Blog

The growing guides include in-depth, step-by-step instructions on cultivation. You’ll find the basics, germination, planting, growing, harvesting, and drying in the beginner’s guide and more advanced techniques like topping and Sea of Green in the expert guide. Both are exceptionally well done; the text is accompanied by artwork, and each section is categorized by color. However, we would like to see pictures to provide reference points.

WSE’s Learning Center is an extensive collection of articles dedicated to popular cultivation topics. You’ll find articles like “Growing Weed in a Closet Guide” and “When to Harvest Autoflowers Explained.” This section serves as a continuation of the growing guides but dives deeper into specific, relevant topics.

The blog is a little more SEO oriented, with the majority of the articles using the popular listicle format. However, the content still provides value and isn’t bogged down too much with keywords.

Social Media

One of the areas in which WSE excels is Instagram. The seed bank regularly posts to its nearly 12k followers grow updates from customers and new strains that a team of in-house breeders has recently stabilized. WeedSeedsExpress is an excellent follow. You aren’t bombarded with promotional content, and the account’s content is cohesive and high-quality.

WeedSeedsExpress Review: In Conclusion

We’ve been keeping tabs on WeedSeedsExpress for a while and are genuinely excited to see the company come into its own in recent years. The seed bank’s growing selection, dedication to customer service, well-designed website, and additional cultivation resources put WSE in the running for one of the best seed banks out of The Netherlands. We hope to see continued growth and expect WeedSeedsExpress in our top choices once they’ve cleaned up their online reputation.
