Feminized Seeds

Showing 9 - 16 of 20

People who are new to cannabis culture may not know that this unique plant comes in different genders, sometimes simultaneously. Like the rest of the flora, marijuana plants can be male and female. The purpose of the male plants is to produce fertilization so that the latter can form fruit and give seeds that will resume culture with the coming of a new season. In the case of cannabis, the males are of no further interest except in the continuation of the species. Female plants, on the other hand, form buds with a high content of tetrahydrocannabinol, which is active in the human body.

Regular or common seeds are obtained naturally when the male pollinates the female. In turn, their offspring will equally produce both sexes. There is no way to determine in advance what sex the plant will be, so these seeds are planted more than necessary to remove the male bushes later. By cultivating feminized marijuana seeds, the grower understands in advance how many plants he needs and plants the same number of seeds, expecting their beautiful fruits. Feminized cannabis seeds have been at the top of the market for over two decades. Their staggering popularity is very easy to explain as their cultivation guarantees high quality results to the maximum extent. 

Feminized seeds are seeds that do not carry any male genes and thus ensure that only female seeds are produced that can produce a crop of excellent buds, thus ensuring a crop with maximum productivity. They are also called Sinsemilla, and their inflorescences are generally larger and have a higher percentage of cannabinoids.

Every cannabis plant has the innate ability to produce reproductive organs of the opposite sex. This ability is not unique and is observed among most representatives of the plant world. It can also be attributed to the main factors thanks to which cannabis was able to spread throughout the world, adapt to different climatic conditions and survive even in unfavorable environments. Feminize seeds are obtained by forcing female bushes to produce pollen and fertilize normal healthy females with it. As a result, male chromosomes do not appear in the seeds and exclusively fertile female plants grow from them. This technique was invented by Indian breeders, where the psychotropic properties of marijuana have been valued for centuries. At the initial stage, this technique was far from perfect, since in most cases it gave hermaphrodites. Over time, breeders from all over the world studied and improved it.

What Are the Advantages of Feminized Seeds?

Growers and cannabis users of all stripes love marijuana seeds for several reasons:

  1. Growers favour larger, more robust plants that respond well to training. Feminized seeds give them time to learn how to become a better grower.
  2. For holistic users, feminized cannabis seeds offer diverse cannabinoid profiles rich in THC and/or CBD.
  3. Ease of cultivation. Due to the fact that the package contains only feminized seeds, the grower will be able to significantly reduce the area on which strains will grow. Absolutely all female seeds will sprout and produce a harvest. This is great news for those planning to grow indoors where space is limited.
  4. The viability of this species is enormous, you don’t have to worry about the work put in, it will live up to your expectations. Since almost all plants grown from feminized seeds will be female, there is no need to waste time and resources removing male plants. This also means you can focus on caring for your plants and getting maximum yield without distractions.

Therefore, buy feminized seeds will be an excellent solution for both experienced growers and those who are taking their first steps in this direction. Breeders advise choosing biomaterial taking into account their knowledge, requirements for the final product and the amount of free space and resources for care. Feminized seeds will only produce growth on mother plants, which greatly simplifies their processing and reduces the gardener’s participation in the process.

However, it should be understood that when growing, you need to be very prudent and attentive with plants during the growth process, since stressful situations such as lack of fertilizers, improper light conditions and moisture, overheating, and pruning can cause the appearance of hermaphrodites. In other words, the sex of the final plant is influenced not so much by genetics as by the characteristics of the external environment. If they do appear, they must be removed immediately; this is the only way to save the harvest.

There are several recommendations.

The first is to eliminate any factors that provoke stress in plants. These include:

  • insufficient lighting of the room;
  • incorrect pruning of branches;
  • improper fertilization of plants - too large or small doses of drugs affecting plant growth.

Due to stress, "females" can transform into hemaphrodites or "male" seeds.

The second - with the appearance of two pairs of three leaves on the plant, you need to introduce a special care regimen. It includes:

  • use of mineral fertilizers with a high nitrogen content;
  • indoor temperature control - from 20C. Plants should not overheat;
  • monitor the level of humidity - it should be at a high level;
  • set the photoperiod to 12:00;
  • make special lighting - in the blue spectrum.

Differences Between Indica and Sativa Feminized Seeds

All of our feminized weed seeds fall under two subspecies—indica and sativa. Yet, these categories do little to describe the effects of individual strains—that's more to do with terpene profiles—so if you want to try strains with different effects, we recommend reading the product description and datasheet to see which is suitable.

The subspecies does, however, influence characteristics such as leaf shape, plant size, and total flowering time:

  1. Indicas typically grow shorter, with a bushy structure and broader leaves. They also tend to flower in less time than sativas, making them ideal for colder, rainier climates.
  2. Sativas grow tall, with longer branches and thinner leaves, and they often take longer to flower. Sativas love the sun and thrive in warm climates.
  3. Indicas are the faster flowering varieties and usually have a flowering time of 45 to 60 days. A major difference between indica vs sativa is that sativas take longer to flower. They will usually need between 60 and 90 days to finish blooming.
  4. An effect. This can be especially difficult to grasp for people who have never used psychoactive substances. 

Most cannabis seeds contain a mix of both genetics (technically making them hybrids) and display characteristics of both as a result. 

Why is it necessary to order  feminized seeds from us?  

Buying feminized seeds canada  in our store is the best decision for everyone. After all, we boast a whole list of advantages, among which are:

  • quality assurance (we have the best feminized seeds). If you buy feminized seeds from unverified nurseries, a fellow amateur, or without the “feminized” sign, then your greenhouse will inevitably show growth in human size. According to statistics, after about 10 births, only 2-3 will produce strong, healthy feminized seeds. Others have to be sent to a separate room, because the grower wants to independently grow cannabis for the coming season, or simply throw it away;
  • a convenient website interface that allows you to find the desired variety, as well as read all the important information about it on the corresponding page. This point is very important, because it allows you to save time and spend it on something more useful, for example, caring for those plants that are already planted in the greenhouse;
  • a wide selection of seed material;
  • affordable prices on feminized cannabis;
  • fast delivery time of feminized cannabis;
  • high level of service. Managers can advise on various questions and help you buy feminized seeds.
