Royal Queen Seeds (RQS)

About Royal Queen Seeds

Royal Queen Seeds is one of Europe's largest and most respected cannabis seed companies. Founded in 2010, they've grown rapidly to offer over 200 strains — from classic indica and sativa varieties to cutting-edge autoflowers and CBD strains. Known for rigorous quality control, excellent customer service, and accessible pricing.

History

Royal Queen Seeds was founded in 2010 by a collective of Dutch and Spanish cannabis enthusiasts who wanted to bridge premium Dutch genetics with Spain's booming cannabis grow culture. Starting with a small catalogue of proven classics, they rapidly expanded to over 200 varieties by the late 2010s. RQS invested heavily in an educational platform — their grow guides, tutorials and cannabis magazine (RQS Blog) have become one of the most-visited cannabis resources on the internet, helping millions of new growers worldwide.
