How do I get back to where I came from?

If you are on page x and order an item, you can get back to page x when you use your browser's back button (left arrow). If you click on our navigational headings, you start again from the beginning of that section.

What is a quick order?

In a Quick Order you can enter directly in the shopping cart the item number and quantity of the requested article. You must have a customer number to use Quick Order, because we must assume knowledge of our item list.

All functions of the shopping cart are still available, you can delete items or change the input quantities at any time. If you miss an item number, you can find the article using the text search, click the button "Add to cart", and return to the quick entry using the navigation "QUICK ORDER".

Our tip: Instead of using the "add to cart" button press the return key after quantity.

Do I have to login or register to add items to the cart?

Yes, this is necessary to check all restrictions. Not all products may be exported to all countries. What is more the shop can only save your shopping cart when we there is a reference to one customer.

Which units can I order?

You can order for most items portions, grams or seeds. The conversion of seeds to gram is determined by the average weight of 1000 seeds and is rounded up the next deci-gram. The number of seeds delivered may differ from the number ordered. Gold Nugget Seeds are sold in unit seeds only. We weigh all amounts, also portions and seeds, we do not count seeds.

How big is one portion?

1 portion is our smallest sales unit and contains 20-250 seeds depending on value and seed size. The unit portion is weighed in and not counted. Therefore the number of seeds may vary and a ± difference of up to 5% is to be assumed for technical reasons.

NB: If you order 2 portions, you will receive two seed packets.

Are the seeds counted or weighed?

All seed counts are based on an approximate indication and may vary considerably between various seed lots or crop years.
The number of seed per gram is counted for each seed lot individually.
The seed contained in a gram or portion or 1000 seed unit is measured according to weight and is not counted each time for every order.
Therefore, the number of seed in gram, portion or 1000 seed unit may vary and a ± difference of up to 5% should be accepted with no compensation in any way due the technical circumstances.

What does an item cost?

Our prices are quoted in Euros. Prices are net and do not include VAT and are plus insurance, packing and shipping costs.

In the pull down menu next to the price you find a box listing our Block prices.

If you enter an amount in the field, a green box appears, showing you the true price scale and the total price for the desired amount. Portions do not have a price scale.

What are block prices?

In the pull down menu next to the price you find a box listing our block prices. Discount has already been calculated in our price scale. The larger the amount ordered, the smaller the price / per grams.
