Hemp Seed

Hi all,

Is it illegal for me to cross the border into France with a few buckets of unprepared hemp, or does it need to be prepared?

I don't want to be stopped and told we cant get into the country cause we have a about 30kg of hemp seeds! It can't look too good, but when it is prepared it will take up more space and be even heavier.

I think i will probably just prepare it and store it in big water tight containers to save any hassle, but just interested to see what other people's views are.

Justin

Re: Hemp Seed

i normally do my hemp before i go ,then freeze it again in big buckets Due to the fact i have the space in my van for this

Why do you think it is illigal ?? it aint weed

Most sites /fisherys have somewhere for you to prepare particles or they will boil them for you

Buy a freezer box and use lake water , boil it up and leave overnight , (do this on the bank 0

Re: Hemp Seed

The seeds i have arent shop bought! I got them straight from a grower. You need a licence to grow the seeds so surely it isnt good to have copious amounts of them!

We have a lake and chalet booked for the week, so it is possible for us to prepare it at the lake, might do half at home and half in france.

Thanks for the reply.

Re: Hemp Seed

Perhaps it might be worth getting in hemp pellets? My experience is that french Customs can be awkward or just plain French...

Re: Hemp Seed

I will hide it under the car, it won't look suspicious then

In all seriousness i will probably boil it all. They can't be that fussy surely when they see that the car is full of fishing tackle!

Thanks for the help.
