The Advantages of Growing Indoor Gardens Using Regular Seeds
Both feminized and regular seedless cannabis seeds germinate well in warm climate conditions. Regular seeds have steadily displaced feminized cannabis seeds as favorites in several countries. This is probably because these kinds of seeds contain a high content of THC, which makes them much less desirable than their seed counterparts. Some people prefer the taste and texture of regular cannabis over feminized cannabis, but they are not practical for growing indoors.
Regular seeds are available at garden centers and online stores, however, most of them are feminized. Indica and sativa are the two species of cannabis with the highest production of THC. Regular seeds can be separated into three categories. Sativa, Indica, and Mexicana. All three varieties produce different proportions of THC and CBD, the two chemicals responsible for the “high”. The best way to breed cannabis with specific THC and CBD ratios is by crossing indica with sativa or mijas with marjoram and breeding those plants together.
It’s easy to do this with regular seeds, but breeding plants that cross only one species requires a significant amount of time. In addition, producing quality marijuana with little or no THC requires knowledge of the genetics of each plant, which is not readily available. It is much simpler to cross indica and sativa with each other, then to cross indica with mijas or marjoram. Cultivating strains that produce the same proportions of these two chemicals is a relatively straightforward process.
Many popular cannabis strains are hybrids. Hybrid plants combine different genes from two or more parents to create new plants that are very likely to contain both parents’ genes. Crossbreeding is especially useful for increasing the concentrations of THC and CBD in the end product. When pollen from females is collected and stored, it can be passed on to males that haven’t yet had the beneficial effect of smoking the female flowers. If the pollen from males has a high amount of THC in it, they will start to develop a tolerance for this drug, and smoke less of the female flowers as time goes on.
Widow regular and crossbred indicas, mijas and marjoram seeds are especially suitable for breeding marijuana with specific traits. For example, many hybrid buds have large amounts of CBD, with very low levels of THC. Crossbreeding with the right combination of these feminised seeds produces strains that act like THC in regular cannabis, but do not produce the psychoactive side effects. Widow regular seeds can be used as a replacement for regular seeds that may be missing one or more of their parent’s genes and have a better effect if they are also crossbred with other feminised plants.
One of the best advantages of using regular seed is that you can always control the conditions of the environment under which your plants grow. You are able to control the temperature, humidity, light and moisture level in every room of your house. Many indoor gardens cannot boast this luxury, which means that you will be forced to grow in conditions that are not optimal. With marijuana, however, you can grow in harmony with nature, without having to constantly fight for the advantages.
If you grow using regular seeds, you will find that your plants will tend to grow in the same way each time, unless you do something to change the genes themselves. In many cases, you can easily determine whether or not your plants are going to grow well by observing their traits. Some of the better traits that you want to look for are aroma and taste. If the plant you are growing has really unique or strong smells, it is probably going to be a good idea to crossbreed with another plant that has similar or stronger smells.
Another advantage to crossbreeding your plants is that you can use various different strains on each plant. If you get a really good yield from your regular seeds, you may find that you have enough to breed with another plant that is of a better quality, but will produce flowers that you want to use on your outdoor garden. If you use regular seeds, though, you can end up with plants that produce the same results, no matter what type of flowers they are able to produce. This can lead to a lot of wasted time, money and energy, if you are not careful.
