Is it legal to germinate cannabis seeds in the UK?
In the UK, cannabis seeds can be legally bought and owned by adults — but germination and cultivation are strictly prohibited without a Home Office licence.
This means you can legally collect and preserve seeds as souvenirs or for genetic study, but it is illegal to sprout, grow, or cultivate them within the UK.
Gorilla Seeds sells cannabis seeds as collectable genetic preservation souvenirs only. We cannot offer advice or answer questions related to germination or cultivation. All reputable seedbanks make this distinction clear to help customers stay within the law.
