Regular cannabis seeds can be used by many cultivators, but they are not as common as seed which is used to grow a specific variety of cannabis. Regular cannabis seeds, when grown from a cannabis plant that is genetically similar to the one you want to grow, will usually result in a hybrid plant, sometimes with certain desirable qualities. If you want to grow a specific type of cannabis then you need to buy your own cannabis seed.
Regular cannabis seeds are female flowers and males, where the parent plant has no choice in the gender, unlike most hybrid varieties, which have been crossbred. In recent years, however, the percentage of users who opt for this type of weed seed has declined significantly, though regular marijuana seeds remain the most popular choice for many old school growers, who want to respect the natural form of the herb in all aspects.
The main advantage of cannabis seeds is the fact that they can be started from a single plant, whereas with most other types of cannabis plants, you have to start from the bottom up and work upwards. This means that you have to replant the original cannabis plants every year, which can be time consuming and costly. With the help of marijuana seeds, you can be able to grow a single plant from seeds, resulting in less work and an easier time of cultivation.
Of course, regular cannabis seeds come with some disadvantages as well. Here we will look at these and some of the ways in which the disadvantages can be taken advantage of.
One of the first disadvantages of regular seeds is that they don’t come with the same level of quality as the more expensive varieties do. For example, the seed which is recommended for indoor growing can sometimes be less than ideal for outdoor use, especially if you want a consistent and high-quality crop. This isn’t always the case however, as you can buy seeds which are not suitable for both indoor and outdoor growing, making it possible for you to grow a good quality crop both indoors and outdoors at the same time.
Another disadvantage of buying a regular cannabis seed is the amount of work involved in taking care of them. Because of the way in which the marijuana plant grows, there are a lot of little sprouts, known as stolons, which make up part of the entire bud, so you need to take care of these properly. Once the marijuana plant flowers, these buds will also grow into leaves, which are called stalks. and these are much easier to take care for than the plants on which they grow, though they often suffer from a much lower yield than those on which they grow.
Disadvantages also include being subject to mold and mildew, both of which are harmful. Some people have the misconception that regular cannabis seedlings require a lot of attention and water, but this isn’t necessarily true. The truth is that a regular weed seed can be left in the ground for weeks before it is exposed to the air, which means that you do not have to water it so much and you can leave it out in the garden.
The downside of regular cannabis seedling also relates to the fact that they tend to be weaker than their hybrid counterparts. It is possible for you to have a great number of plants if you choose to grow them in a greenhouse, but the fact remains that they are weaker than regular cannabis seedlings grown in the garden, and some people believe that this is one of the reasons why they are more difficult to cultivate. When you grow regular cannabis seedlings, you need to be prepared to pay more to get a healthy crop.
