Although feminized seeds have gained popularity, regular seeds still have their own distinct advantages. For example, they can be used to make unique crossbreeds. They also have the ability to become hermaphrodites under stress, which can be beneficial for breeders.
However, most growers prefer feminized seeds because they offer greater control over the sex of the plants. Here are some reasons why you should try them:
Alien Technology
A highly potent Indica strain, Alien Technology delivers a slow and steady body-melting high that eases your mind into a relaxed state. This is an ideal strain for relieving daily aches and pains as well as treating chronic conditions like muscle spasms, fibromyalgia, and insomnia. It also boosts appetite and stimulates the senses. The terpenes phytol and phellandrene are present in this marijuana, which provide analgesic properties and sedative effects.
This strain is easy for beginner cultivators to grow as it has robust Afghani heritage that makes it resilient against molds and garden pests. It flowers in 8-10 weeks and is ready for harvest in late September through early October. This strain is best grown indoors using the Sea of Green (SOG) method and grows tall, requiring pruning to maintain a manageable height.
This marijuana produces a thick coating of resin and has a rich terpene profile. The aromas are sweet and spicy, reminiscent of a fresh apple juice. Its smoke is tropical and tangy with a touch of gasoline, leaving behind a subtle taste of herb.
Blueberry
Blueberry bushes require acidic soil (pH 4.0 to 5.0) that is well-drained and rich in organic matter. They do best in cool climates. To ensure healthy plants and fruit, blueberry growers must prune bushes to prevent overcrowding, and mulch after planting.
Mulching helps control weeds, which compete with the plant for water and nutrients. It also protects the plant from frost and winter injury. Ideally, you should use organic mulch, such as rotted sawdust or peat moss. Avoid high-pH mulches, which may damage the root system.
A blueberry’s natural antioxidants help lower blood pressure and decrease oxidation of LDL cholesterol, which is associated with heart disease. It also contains vitamin C, which is essential for wound healing and the synthesis of collagen, a fibrous protein in connective tissue. The berries have a low glycemic index and are an excellent source of fiber. They are an excellent food for people with diabetes. They are also a good source of vitamin A, which contributes to eye health.
God Bud
A cross between a sativa Hawaiian and hybrid Purple Skunk, God Bud Reg delivers an earthy, piney, citrusy, and tropical taste with high levels of THC. The strain also has a potent effect that can bring on a deep calm that will lull smokers into a peaceful sleep. Medicinal tokers often use God Bud for pain management and to help alleviate nausea.
Cultivating this cannabis strain requires a specialized growing setup that includes an efficient odor-control system. It can be raised indoors or outdoors as long as a climate suitable for the plant is available.
The plants produce large yields of resin-coated buds with an herbal, musky flavor that combines berry, lavender and a hint of pine (due to the caryophyllene terpene). This fruity, floral, and earthy strain from RedeCan produces a balanced buzz that’s great for socializing. The effects lean heavier towards indica and can cause sleepiness if consumed in larger doses. It’s best to consume this strain late at night for maximum effectiveness.
Jilly Bean
Jilly Bean is a Sativa dominant strain that can leave you feeling upbeat and energized. It is a hybrid of Space Queen and Orange Velvet, two strains that are known for their different effects. Space Queen is a mood-elevating strain that can help relieve stress, while Orange Velvet is known for its balanced high that provides focus. This makes Jilly Bean a great option for social situations.
Its euphoric cerebral high eliminates negative thoughts and stimulates creativity. It can also increase your appetite. This strain is popular among people who suffer from depression and anxiety, and it can ease light pain, such as menstrual cramps. Its mood-elevating effects can also help people cope with PTSD, migraines, and insomnia.
Jilly Bean is a hardy marijuana plant that thrives in indoor and outdoor settings. It blooms in eight to nine weeks and produces generous crops of mid-sized, olive green buds. Its dense, resinous buds are reminiscent of mango and pineapple jellybeans.
