The perfect ratio for male-to female growing with regular seed is about 1-to-2 (about 66% male). Also, when you begin to grow, it is always in your best interest to assume that at least 50% of your seeds will be female. Therefore, you should always germinate some extra seeds to make room for all of the females that you will discard later on.
Regular seed drills can help you make feminized seeds. It is possible to do this by separating the regular seeds from the feminized seeds before you put them into the garden. When you do separate the regular seeds from the feminized seeds, make sure that you go through each and every one very carefully. This will help ensure that all of the seeds that are going into your garden are pure male. If any seeds are female, it may still be possible to make them feminized, but it will take a little more care and time. However, if you take the proper steps and make sure that everything is done exactly as instructed, you shouldn’t have any problems.
There are many different things that make marijuana seeds distinct from each other. These are male and female plants. There are also many other factors, but for the purposes of this article, we will keep it simple and only focus on the two primary factors, male and female plants. When it comes to growing marijuana, the flowers are considered the female plants. Marijuana seeds that have been sowed as females have yet to flower, while those that are males have already bloomed and have a limited amount of pollen available to them.
The main difference between a male and female plant is what type of medium they are growing in. Male plants grow in organic soil, such as coco coir. Coir doesn’t allow moisture to permeate through, so the plant does not need to keep moisture inside of itself to stay healthy. Since coir doesn’t provide nutrients, it is not conducive to growing cannabis at all.
On the other hand, breeding regular seed with feminized cannabis seeds results in what is called feminized cannabis. These plants don’t need to have regular water because they are grown in special growing medium. This growing medium is made up of coconut coir, vermiculite, sand, gravel, wood chips, coconut husk, and/or coconut oil. This specific type of medium allows the plant to have access to as much as fifty-five percent more nutrition than it would receive from regular seed. Some of the benefits that the plant gets from this extra nutrition include:
The best way to cultivate feminized seeds is by starting out with one type of plant and then switching to another later. Many breeders like to cross their female plants with male plants in order to produce a new generation of feminized cannabis. This means that if a farmer likes to cross his/her male plants with a female plant, they do so with female plants instead. This will result in new plant lines that each are known as feminized seeds. Many of these seeds are used to create new hybrid varieties.
It may be easier for breeders to cross their cannabis plant with a friend or relative’s plant, but it is not necessary. There are many other ways to develop new genetics. In fact, the only thing required is patience. The key is to always remember that the best marijuana harvest comes from continuous improvement. While it can be tempting to get in “all-in” early, it is better to take it step by step and then relax and harvest at your own pace.
It takes time to develop a feminized crop. When you are harvesting your crops, keep in mind that each plant has its own set of characteristics, some of which may be more desirable than others. For example, the skunk will turn up the biggest smoke but will also produce the most potent buds. The winner, the prize winner and all-time winner will also have different characteristics. Once you’ve crossed your two cannabis plants and produced a hybrid, you must let the plants mature before you can harvest. Some breeds can take a year or two to mature, while others may only need a week or two.
