Dutch Passion is one of the first cannabis seed banks founded in the Netherlands. It was created in 1987, and just like many other seed banks from the same era, was in fact active before its creation date, through its founder, Henk van Dalen. He started growing cannabis for his personal needs, using skills acquired in college, where he studied Biology and Pharmacology.
Over time, Henk van Dalen’s network expanded, and he used this to his advantage in order to breed cannabis seeds imported from Thailand and Nigeria with other types of cannabis seeds provided by his most treasured contacts. After a few more steps forward into the world of cannabis, including a couple of Cannabis Cups, Henk van Dalen decided to focus his efforts towards providing the best cannabis seeds possible for home cultivation, and in order to achieve this goal of his, finally founded Dutch Passion. Together with a handful of other Dutch cannabis breeders, he contributed to proving that high quality cannabis strains did not need to be imported, giving a brand new name to the Dutch expertise in breeding cannabis.
It is in Amsterdam that he founded in 1988 the first coffeeshop to distribute exclusively cannabis products produced and processed in the Netherlands: Homegrown Fantasy. This coffeeshop is now a completely different place altogether, but will remain part of the city’s history forever! Henk van Dalen also founded many cannabis and hemp related businesses, including ventures that are now considered milestones of the European cannabis scene.
Since then, the cannabis seed bank has had many different objectives, each of them focused on facilitating home growing, while staying true to the basics of cannabis breeding. After achieving tremendous advances in cannabis genetics, Dutch Passion created the first feminized cannabis seeds, and released autoflowering versions of some of their strains. Yet, their catalogue still includes many products available only in regular seeds, in order for customers in need of pure, stable genetics to conduct their own experiences in crossbreeding.
Dutch Passion is still focussed on one key value - to provide the best cannabis seeds for the self-sufficient recreational and medical growers.
