seeds custom-packed to order


Explanation:
I also agree with your suggestion.

A quick search among seed sellers on the web produced "custom-packed seed orders", an expression used in many English-speaking countries around the world.

Overview: https://www.google.com/search?q=custom-packed seed orders&cl...



Example sentence(s):
  • UK: RUNNER BEAN - ENORMA - multiples of 300 seeds custom packed to order (https://www.yanchamarket.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=240699)
  • USA: MUSTARD - RED GIANT - multiples of 20,000 seeds custom packed to order (https://www.ebay.com/itm/MUSTARD-RED-GIANT-multiples-of-20-000-seeds-custom-packed-to-order-/190924443083)

neutral  Ramey Rieger (X): Hi Nelly! The lower link on shipping returns.
1 hr
  -> Which link didn't work? In trying to be objective, it could be a seed mixture, one special type of seed (e.g. Batavia lettuce), planting (seed strips or just seed) and/or packaging. Martina, what is the scope limited to if at all?
agree  Armorel Young: That works well too

custom quantities upon request


Explanation:
"Abfüllungen" in this instance refers solely to quantities or volumes, presumably by weight.

"...custom quantities upon request..."
