What should I know about ordering seeds and clones thru the mail?

What strain should I get?

• Since the Overgrow Strain guide is gone and so have the files I suggest that you join an online community as they will have growers that have grown whatever strain you have looked at and wondered about.

• Since the files associated with Overgrow are gone I suggest that you join a local growers community. They are out there and use any good referals from other people in that community. but do not take one persons word for it as they could be from the place that they recommend so wait till you have a few referals for the one place from users that ve made many a post.

• As previously stated... The seed vendors & breeders weallow to advertised on OverGrow take every precaution to ensure thatyour package is delivered in a timely & secure manner. Yourpersonal security is of utmost importance to Team OverGrow & wewould never allow a vendor to advertise with us who we feel does nothold your personal safety at heart. Our vendors have been in businessfor many years & have shipped thousands of orders worldwide. Theyprovide discreet packaging, delivered in a timely fashion & knowthat every package lost through Customs or a nosy neighbor, is acustomer lost as well.

• Most seed vendors do in fact accept credit cards &International money orders. Your credit card is billed discreetly &you will not see a charge on your statement that reads "For MarijuanaSeeds." We find it best to contact the individual retailers for exactpayment options.

• If at all possible, we strongly encourage you to acquire a safemailing address far away from your grow. While we do not know of anybusts originating from a seed delivery, your personal safety shouldalways come first. A friend or relative who is in the know or a PO Boxunder an assumed name will most often do the trick. While we do ourbest to help keep you safe, our efforts are futile if you, the user,are not doing your part.

• Packages shipped from another country can take quite some timeto arrive. Packages have arrived in as little as 10 days & as longas 4 weeks. Sometimes things get lost, misplaced, mishandled ormislabeled. With thousands of packages leaving the doors on a dailybasis, a slip up is bound to happen. All of our vendors provide anemail address just in case an issue should arise. Some have even goneas far as creating forums & websites dedicated to helping itscustomers.

• When you order seeds, if customs finds them, they will beseized. In the US you will get a note stating that they have beenseized and that's the end of it. There will be no agents showing up at your door. You will not be under surveillance for the rest of your life.

• The Terms of Use clearly states that we will not tolerate postswhich contain requests or offers for illegal drug transactions. Thiswould include seeds & clones. This community is made up of membersfrom around the world. Although the trade of seed is legal in thecountries in which some of our members reside there are possibly severepenalties for using the mail system to transport illegal contrabandinto countries which make up our greatest population. Cannabis seedshappen to fall into the category of contraband. With consideration ofinput from team members and legal advice, we have adopted this policy.We have also adopted a policy of not permitting public trading of anykind.
