The first thing to spring forth from a cannabis seed is the actual seed. Seeds are a very important part of the entire plant, as everything else is constructed off of it. There are essentially three different kinds of seeds that all work with each other to assist the plant to develop. First there is the rhizome, which is the bottom portion of the actual seed. This is what actually grows into a plant. Next is the anther, which is at the top of the seed.
The next way in which the cannabis seedling stage works is that the anther and germination media are sealed away. The media is then allowed to germinate, and then the seeds begin to grow. When this is happening, the gardener needs to know how to buy cannabis seedling, and also exactly when to buy it. Some seed producers will tell the gardener to buy their product at the end of the growing season, before the bud has fully grown. Other seed producers will tell the gardener to wait for a couple weeks until the bud has produced enough leaves to warrant seeding.
It really does depend on the type of cannabis seed you buy and how early in the season you plan to germinate the plants. Some species of cannabis plants prefer to be seeded just before they are about to produce flowers and set seed. Other species of plants need to be seed sown after the plants have finished growing and produced a crop of flowers and leaves. This is why some grow heavy, fast growing plants like indices, and others like California grapevines. Other kinds of plants like tulips and daffodils prefer to be seed sown just before they bloom, so that they can start producing flowers and Set fruit on their own.
Different types of plants have different characteristics when it comes to the time of year they produce their best buds. Some plants like lavender will flower and set fruit in the late winter, while other plants like cannabis plants will flower and set seed at the same time every year. The type of cannabis seed production each plant has been accustomed to, and the time they need in order to fully mature and produce quality buds, will determine the best time to get started with your cannabis seed production.
The first step in getting started with cannabis seed production is to get seeds from a reliable source. Many grow shops, or other reputable breeders, may offer quality feminized and auto-flowering seeds. These are much more highly desired varieties of cannabis seeds. However, many shops sell these kinds of seeds without a prescription, so it’s up to the consumer to ask about the availability of these specific types of seeds. Most feminized and auto-flowering seeds are highly resistant to pests and can survive harsh weather conditions. They also do not require special treatment to survive any kind of frost or moisture condition.
Before purchasing any type of cannabis seed products, it is imperative that consumers fully understand the characteristics of both male and female plants. When dealing with cannabis seed, it is important to know that female plants only produce one crop of pollen in relation to male plants. A female plant only produces one type of pollen at any given time; therefore, they will produce a single bloom. This blooming is what people use to distinguish between male and female plants, and can help you decide if you should purchase a particular variety of seed or not.
If you are not sure whether or not the seed is a true cannabis seed or perhaps it is an indoor plant, inspect the outer shell of the flower. An outer shell of a female plant indicates that the flower is a true cannabis seed. The appearance of the flower inside the shell is usually brownish-black, and often has small holes or divots in the middle of the flower. This is a good indication that it is not a marijuana plant, but rather another species.
As far as germination from marijuana seeds, it is fairly consistent throughout all types. Some types of marijuana seeds will have lower germination rates, while some will have higher rates. It is important to research each variety prior to purchase.
