Where does Alchimiaweb come from?
Alchimia Grow Shop was born with the idea of offering quality gardening equipment and tools "for those who wanted to grow their own cannabis" , but also with the aim to spread information about the world of cannabis and its users, offering growing assistance with passion and love for this plant.
This dream came true at the "Cànem Club" association, created in 1995 by David and Ramón - among other friends - with the objective of gathering all cannabis growers of the area and share knowledge, genetics and ideas.
Thus, Alchimia Grow Shop was inaugurated on 28 April 2001 in a small store in the heart of Figueres (pretty close to Dalí Museum) full of hope and motivation, the same feelings that one has when germinating a cannabis seed.
