Sensi Seed Bank B.V.
specialises in trading in hemp seed.
Importing, stocking and supplying hemp seed is not subject to regulation in
persuance of the 1961 Single Treaty on Narcotics. In countries such as the Netherlands,
freedom to trade hemp seed is clearly incorporated in the national Opium or Narcotics Act
legislation.
Warning!
Unfortunately, regulation and implementation in respect of
hemp seed often differ from country to country. For this reason we advise you as a matter
of urgency to make inquiries about the regulations to which you are subject.Sometimes
exemption can be obtained for industrial, medicinal and agricultural applications. In a
number of countries trading in hemp seeds does not require a permit. However, a
notification requirement is sometimes imposed in the event that hemp seed is exported for
the purposes mentioned above. If the notification requirement is applicable, you should
inform us or the authorities or both in good time. We dispatch our seeds with the
reservation that they will not be used by third parties in conflict with the law. Sensi
Seed Bank B.V. does not wish to induce anyone to act in conflict with the law. We
expressly point out that all those who purchase our seeds are responsible for their
actions in the future. Sensi Seed Bank B.V. will accept no responsibility in this respect.
Sensi Seed Bank B.V. does not accept any product-liability.
A list of non-THC
Hemp-seed: In the 1990s, in order to comply with the prohibition, the Institute of
Bast Crops (Ukraine) and affiliated scientific and research institutions obtained the
highly productive and non-drug Hemp varieties.
This year 1997 French Hemp-seed
breeders have managed to arrive at a new true 0% THC strain called Santhica.
Please keep in mind that these Hemp cultivars below contain approximately 0.05% THC
(*THC = tetra-hydro-cannabinol, the psychoactive substance of Hemp) but that they are
nonetheless labeled THC-free (See also cultivars/strains from
Russia):
- USO-1
- USO-16
- USO-31
- Zolotonoshskaya-13
- Dneprovskaya monoecious-6
- Zenica or Shenitsa
The European Union (EU) has chosen the THC content of
0.3% from a pragmatic point of view:
#1 This percentage is chosen because it rules out any
possibility to efficiently or economically extract the psychoactive component from the
plant.
#2 This percentage leaves some play in the THC content that
various strains or cultivars may or may not possess. It is still possible to cultivate
this plant since all Hemp crops invariably contain some percentage THC.
The THC-free Hemp-seed list above, is one composed of Hemp varieties containing around
0.03% THC. Here an analogy with alcohol-free beer comes to mind: Alcohol-free beer
contains an amount of alcohol however miniscule but as long as it is not over a certain
limit as established by law, it can be called or labeled alcohol-free. It is possible to
eliminate all the alcohol from the beer or THC from Hemp, but it is not economically
viable to do so.
To my knowledge there are no THC restrictions or limits set on growing Hemp in the
following countries:

from Russia.

*Industrial-Hemp has no
psychoactive properties following definition of the European Economic Community (EEC);
THC content is less than 0.3%. In general, low THC-seed varieties without psychoactive
properties are those that have a THC content of less than 1%. (See also No-THC Hemp-seed.)
THC= Delta-9 TetraHydroCannabinol.
