Regular cannabis seeds, also known as feminized cannabis, are plants whose seed contains the same number of chromosomes as the mother plant. The disadvantage is that they don’t have the identical set of characteristics as the natural parent plant.
Regular seeds are actually seeds that create both female and male specimens, so the grower does not have control over the sex of their plant. These seeds, however, do have the same set of characteristics as the original plant, including the ability to produce flowers, the ability to reproduce, and the ability to flower again. Although in recent times the percentage of regular cannabis users who use this kind of seed has declined significantly, regular cannabis seeds still remain the most popular choice for many old-school growers who want to respect the plant’s natural characteristics. These seeds have also been used for medical purposes, so it is worth knowing their disadvantages.
First of all, regular cannabis seeds do have a tendency to grow quickly. This is a problem because if you buy seeds from the Internet or from seed banks, they will usually be grown at a very high temperature, resulting in large buds that will require a significant amount of time to grow. While it might seem like a waste to buy seeds from seed banks when there are so many more varieties available, it can be important to grow the same plant from seed from the original plant.
Another disadvantage of growing regular cannabis seeds is that they tend to have little natural variation. The main difference between a regular and feminized seed lies in the way that each has been cultivated, but it isn’t always clear what is different about each kind. For example, most regular cannabis seeds have been cultivated by clipping the root system or making some sort of cut on the end of each bud. This makes it easier for the grower to control the number of buds that grow. Most feminized seeds, however, were not clippers, so the actual cutting part of their culture process has been removed.
Another disadvantage of using regular cannabis seeds is that the plant has no “memory” of what is going on inside of it. This means that a grower might take a plant from seed and then just leave it, resulting in the same plant every time he or she starts growing it again. Most feminized cannabis plants also retain their seeds‘ natural environment, which means they won’t do anything special when they start growing, except for the occasional flowering. If you’re growing a lot of feminized plants in your garden, you may find that you don’t get much production from them.
Feminized plants also have a smaller yield than regular plants, and they tend to contain lower amounts of the active ingredient in marijuana, THC, the substance that makes it so addictive. Because of this, they can be expensive to grow and maintain. Many people prefer to grow these types of cannabis because they require less work and require no upkeep. But they don’t have the same effect on the mind as regular ones, which can be highly addictive.
The biggest advantage of using regular seeds is that the end result is often much higher yields than that from feminized cannabis. Since regular cannabis is bred to have a specific number of buds, only one bud is used to make each plant. This method of production also has the advantage of being less costly than breeding a hybrid, which requires multiple strains of flowers and leaves to produce the plant. Some seeds are even used to breed for hybrids.
Disadvantages and advantages of growing regular cannabis all have to do with the seed itself. If you’re looking to buy or grow seeds, consider how many plants you’ll be planting, whether you plan to keep them indoors or outdoors, and how often you’re going to harvest them. You can also choose between feminized and regular varieties of cannabis and how you cultivate them. You can find many growers online that specialize in this field, or even seed banks that will ship them to you.
