Yes, Justin, I forgive you. And just to show how magnanimous I can be, I’ll
admit that I omitted a detail of the seed count issue which might be of
interest to certain people. 

 

The rules give prospective importers a choice between counting seeds and
weighing seeds. Thus, each pack can contain up to 50 seeds or 10 grams of
seed of one taxon per packet. 

 

That should make it easier for everyone to deal with tiny seeds such as
poppy, petunia and begonia seeds.

 

Now to figure out how to weigh a ten gram unit…
