Serious Seeds Seedbank

Serious Seeds is a Dutch seed bank with a rich history. Thanks to this seed bank, we have such mythical seed varieties such as AK 47 and Chronic, and due to its exhaustive work in genetic selection and seed conservation, we can now enjoy many of the company’s current and previous best strains. Below, we will provide the most important historical data of this seed bank, as well as a selection of the best varieties of this bank.

History and philosophy of Serious Seeds

This seed bank’s history begins with its creator, Simon, who is to thank for the entire development and production of the company. Simon studied biology at the University of Amsterdam, which gave him the practical knowledge to apply in the field of botany and seed breeding. At that time, Simon didn’t consume marijuana, nor did he have any particular interest in the plant. 

However, after studying biology, Simon decided to take a trip to South Africa where, due to its climatic conditions, cannabis plants thrive well. It was during this trip that Serious Seeds’ founder first discovered and fell in love with marijuana seeds. During this same trip, Simon discovered the beneficial effects that marijuana had to offer, and so began to focus his studies and professional life on seed cultivation.

As with many visionary founders of influential seed banks, Simon began to collect seed genetics from all over the world. With these strains, he would begin to build one of the largest, most extensive, and most pampered cannabis gene pools. This seed stock would soon establish a foundation for the Serious Seeds catalogue, one of the most extensive and prominent of its kind, with Simon at the helm of a multidisciplinary team of experts in various branches of botany and genetics.

Simon was given the opportunity of a lifetime when another cannabis visionary, Alan Dronkers, suggested he work with him on his Sensi Seeds project, another giant of collector seeds. Through his time at Sensi Seeds, Simon was able to broaden his knowledge of the marijuana and seed breeding, enabling him to establish his seed bank with the help of two friends in the early 90s. Shortly after, in 1994, Simon would win two Cannabis Champion Cups for his AK 47 and Chronic strains, resulting in a meteoric rise in popularity.

A year later, in 1995, Simon decided to give greater shape to his project and decided to found what we now know as the Serious Seeds seed bank. The name of this seed bank is synonymous with quality genetics. There is exhaustive genetic work behind each variety of Serious Seeds, which makes it one of the most meticulous banks when it comes to presenting new seeds.

At the same time, Serious Seeds are experts in packaging and preservation. Their original packaging ensures the properties of their strains remain intact. In addition, in the selection process of the seeds, those specimens with the worst characteristics are rejected and only those that meet Serious Seeds’ quality standards are put on sale.
