Why You Should Consider Feminized Seeds
Regular seeds are best for those that wish to start growing indoors. These seeds are easier to germinate, require less care, and create more consistent harvests. This type of seeds is better suited for indoor gardening. There are many advantages of growing cannabis with these seeds. The advantages are significant, but there are also some disadvantages to consider.
One of the advantages of regular seeds for indoor growing is that they do not require any special handling. This eliminates much of the work involved in growing cannabis from seed. This also makes it easier to use autoflowering seeds. This is likely one of the biggest disadvantages of this kind of seed because the gardener has no control over how the plants will turn out and therefore may end up with too few male plants and little or no production due to female plants that do not reproduce.
The disadvantage of using regular seeds is that they will not always produce the female plant that was sown. There is a slight chance that the seeds may be missing the correct gender, but it is very rare for this to happen. The chance of this happening is small and therefore this disadvantage is not considered very important. The gardener need only purchase the correct seed and follow instructions carefully to ensure that the plant that is produced is the female plant that was sown.
Some people prefer regular seeds because they are easier to work with. It is especially helpful to people who have very little knowledge about how plants grow and who do not want to be spending a great deal of time working with a plant. The disadvantage of this is that it does depend on where the plants were sown. If the seedlings were sown in an area with a strict gardening schedule then it is unlikely that regular seeds would be as successful as feminized seeds. The gardener may also be limited by the availability of space and the amount of time they can devote to their gardening.
Feminized seeds are available to any gardener who is willing to look further into the structure of seeds before choosing to plant them. They have had the benefit of thorough testing at the molecular level and are known to replicate very well. This means that more females than males will be produced from the plants. The size of plants is not affected by the process because the amount of breeding takes place at the pollen level, not at the reproductive level. The flowering period is also shortened. This means that the gardener will get flowers that are of a greater quality, have a longer life and be more persistent when it comes to pollinating.
The biggest advantage of feminized cannabis seeds is that the gardener will get consistent flowering results from the plants. This is a huge advantage over the traditional seeds that have shortered in the time they take to mature. The lack of flexibility associated with regular seeds means that the gardener has to ensure that they have got the timing right if they are to get consistent results. This can prove problematic if the grower relies on timing to control the growth of plants. With feminized cannabis seeds this is not a problem because the plants are able to mature at a much earlier stage so the flowering period is maximized.
There are many different species of marijuana that have been hybridised through the use of these seeds. This has resulted in the creation of many different types of potencies. Some of these have very low THC levels but are far more psychoactive than other strains. Others produce a milder, non THC experience and this is something that many people prefer to smoke instead of ingesting the plant in its natural state. Growers can then experiment with their blends to create new and unique blends that are suited to each individual user.
Creating feminized cannabis seeds is however not as easy as it sounds. The process of cross pollination between regular strains and feminized ones is difficult. For this reason the feminized plants often require some assistance in order to germinate and grow successfully. This usually means that an external structure must be used in order to support the growth of the seedlings. Many people who are looking to start growing cannabis seeds at home will opt for this option because they do not wish to deal with any of the issues involved with regular seeds.
