Feminized

Cannabis seeds can develop into both male and female plants. While it’s not possible to determine the sex when it’s still a seed, it can be done as soon as the reproductive cycle begins. Male plants produce pollen whereas female plants give out pistils. Breeders use male pollen to pollinate female cannabis strains. Although this is perfect for breeders or other cannabis cultivators looking to create specific strains, a lot depends on luck. Once the plants begin to grow, male plants will inevitably fertilize the female plants, thus producing buds filled with seeds. While buds with seeds can also be used, the potency reduces drastically since the plant focuses on creating seeds rather than buds, which is why growers and other cannabis users prefer seedless buds. Cautious growers pull out male plants as soon as they are spotted since sensimilla (seedless cannabis) is preferred; however, this technique doesn’t work at all times if you fail to weed them out on time. Therefore, breeders use different techniques to create feminized seeds that produce only female plants. The male chromosomes are eliminated so that the seeds produce plants that grow only into female cannabis plants. Growing feminized seeds will remove luck from the equation and you get female plants from those seeds 99 percent of the time. For instance, if you purchase 10 regular seeds, you can expect at least 50 percent of the seeds to grow into female plants while the rest could be male plants. However, feminized seeds guarantee that all the seeds grow into female cannabis strains, thereby allowing the grower to harvest sensimilla buds without any guesswork involved. In this feminized seeds category, you’ll find seeds that are guaranteed to grow as female plants, so you don’t have to worry about encountering male plants in the grow room. Regardless of whether they are grown indoors or outdoors, these feminized plants will grow quickly to produce pure sensimilla buds.
