Russian law (Federal Law No. 3-FZ of 1998 and Criminal Code Articles 228-231) bans cultivation of narcotic cannabis; Article 231 criminalizes growing from seed, and selling or advertising seeds for cultivation attracts administrative and criminal liability under drug-propaganda rules. Import of cannabis seeds is blocked at customs and mailed seeds are prosecuted. Industrial hemp is a separate lawful sector: since 2007 growers may plant only state-registered varieties with THC not exceeding 0.1%.
