It’s practically impossible to determine whether a regular seed marijuana will become a regular marijuana or a female afterward. Of course, once you reach the flowering phase, it’s easier to identify females and males. Males will typically produce calyx shaped capsules while females will create a spherical shape. However, there is one way to tell what sex the marijuana seed was-it will grow green when it’s not in females and red when it’s in males. It’s just a simple matter of observation.
Marijuana feminization is achieved by cross-pollination. Cross-pollinating cannabis seeds by bringing two of them together and separating them with a knife is one way to feminize the plant. This ensures that it will grow according to your expectations. If you want to feminize your regular cannabis seeds without bringing the two plants close together, you may try to get feminized cannabis seeds from fellow growers.
Some growers breed their plants to grow towards the tips of their branches and petals rather than along the stem. Other growers choose different locations for flowering. Either way, you can also alter your marijuana genetics through your care. For instance, some grow the plant from seed in pots on their beds. Others grow plants from a bud cut into three parts and nurture the resulting buds.
The first step for transforming regular seeds into feminized ones is to take and isolate the feminized seeds. Growers may place the seeds in small pots indoors and let them mature. Alternatively, they can put the marijuana seeds into a plastic container. Since air and light can kill the feminized plant, it’s wise to keep the seeds out of direct sunlight and keep them in a dark place when not in use. It’s best to store your feminized marijuana seeds in a cool, dark place.
After the female plant grows to a certain size, it’s time to move on to breeding the males. In most cases, this isn’t necessary because the plant has already developed its own feminization capabilities, but some growers do have their males kept in storage. For others, it makes more sense to isolate the female marijuana plant and allow its natural chromosomes to determine which chromosomes develop into the regular cannabis seeds used for planting.
Some growers will select certain marijuana strains to have their males produce flowers while other producers select specific flowers for their plants to flower. Either way, you can use the pollen from either or both plants to create new hybrid marijuana crops. Some hybrid varieties are more rare than others, though there are many of these varieties available. It’s possible to get a rare strain if you grow your cannabis genetics the right way.
Growers with a great deal of time on their hands can purchase skunk seeds from online retailers for a low cost. Some breeders, however, will use a seed catalog to choose the ones they want to use for their growing facilities. Some of the strains from this catalog may be mixed with regular seed to produce one-regular marijuana plants. Breeders may also have the ability to mix a particular variety with skunk seeds to create a one-in-one marijuana strain. These are called cross-bred strains, and they can produce large yields. Just keep in mind that some of the more rare hybrid varieties may require more care when growing, so it may be better to start with a regular seed rather than skunk seeds if you plan on growing a lot of marijuana plants.
The high-quality Hindu Kush regular marijuana varieties are grown in high-tech greenhouses. This type of greenhouse allows the grower to nurture the plant using hydroponics, which is simply water gardening using the water cycle only. Hydroponics is not for everybody, but those who can handle it have found that it produces larger yields than the old-fashioned way of planting seeds and trying to make them grow. Hydroponics is also easier to maintain and watch over than it used to be.
