Have heard a similar sentiment about Greece. Import duties?

Oh absolutely, I’ll not be able to contain my excitement. Lol.
It’s the same basic idea as the originals, just much better execution. I’ll have a decent printer sooner or later and can work on v2. Originally I was hand drawing random seed packs, but I just wasn’t producing enough of them.
The weight of the paper is everything. Too heavy and it’s hard to tear, too thin and it feels cheap. The right weight and you’ll fall in love. Plus having the tamper evidence of the paper package is nice.

Police fiscalization on airports…
They have a lot of equipaments to discover seeds and more.
The most efficient method is by envelope.
When the seeds comes of u.s.a.

Thanks! @Worcestershire_Farms Are these all the same cultivar or is it a mix of many? I don’t mind not knowing just wondering if I should pop all at the same time to look for a mother or should I expect a lot of variety among them? Thanks again! The DVD you sent(End of days) is one of 10’000’s movie my old man does not have( he’s a long haul trucker trainer) so he’s pretty stoked to watch an old movie he’s never seen hahaha

Ive been looking at laser engraving my seed packs with my 60w Co2 laser. Can get some cool looks.

OP tells you how to potentially differentiate between the seeds. I can pick out a couple mangobiche * hp leaning seeds from your lot I think.

You can get striking/heat based touchmarks made if you were doing wood/ a repeated design over and over again. I made several over the years for blacksmithing and woodworking tools that I sent overseas so they’d be able to trace the craftsmen in a few hundred years but most of the stuff I’ve made for the US I’ve forgotten about it since hardly anyone cares about tracing here. I just mention it due to how fast you could do a few hundred packs as compared to laser engravers but to be fair I’d say engravers have come a LONG way since I fooled with them. They can produce good work at a decent speed?

Yeah. Can do the light engraving for paper in a few seconds at most. For the low power it needs to goes quick. Course I dont have a hobby model. This is the one I have. Its no joke. Eats glowforges for breakfast.
Can set em out and do a bunch real fing fast. Got it to complement my blacksmithing, 3d printing, and other crafting/making things.

Hot damn what a machine! I’d say they’re excellent for batching and saving material! I’ve been looking at those prototype metal 3-d printers for making gears, cams and such but they seem to require loads of math and CNC type knowledge that I just cannot wrap my head around. lolol You ever need a special tool/hard to find item let me know, brother. free of charge of course cause stuff like that in my area of farmers and coal miners has little to no value anymore, unfortunately.If I cannot make it I can source it from a local( grabbed a 125 lb post vise at the flea market this weekend for 50 bucks) I always like to help out fellow growers and craftsmen.

What material are we talking, plastic?
I’ve been pondering what you’re pondering, and my lack of real options had me thinking a hot stamp-type solution.
If you’re looking to make a hobby out of it, I’d love to be your first customer.

Can do SOME plastics times but NEVER PVC as chlorine gas is no joke. Acrylic and lexan with good ventilation are the most common.
Mainly cutting and engraving wood. Can also do glass, rubber, leather, ceramics, stone/marble engraving. Does a great job on most organic materials. Co2 lasers have issues with metals due to reflectivity but can remove coating from annodized metal for engraving on that. Did laser engraved wood slices with pics of the kids on them for presents for parents and inlaws for christmas. Damn things remembered up in here.

That . . . Technically, is possible. Assuming it doesnt cook the embryo, it would be quick . . . Damn it, now I gotta try.
