Cannabis seeds are not controlled substances under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971, so buying, selling, possessing or gifting ungerminated seeds is lawful in the UK provided they are marketed as souvenirs or collectors' items and not supplied for cultivation. Germinating seeds constitutes cultivation of cannabis contrary to section 6 of the 1971 Act unless the grower holds a Home Office licence. Industrial hemp growers require a Home Office controlled-drug cultivation licence and must sow approved low-THC (0.2% or less) varieties, with access to leaf and flower prohibited.
