Feminized Seeds

Feminized seeds are a type of seeds that have been genetically modified to contain both X chromosomes, thus dispensing with the Y chromosomes, so that, with a 99.9% chance, these seeds will produce a feminized plant. In this way, with a 99.9% probability, these seeds will produce a feminized plant. Female marijuana plants guarantee the production of buds rich in resin, compared to male plants that produce the pollen necessary for the production of seeds. The different varieties of feminized seeds are distinguished by their genetic origin, effect, flavors and aromas, in addition to the speed of flowering and cannabinoid content, among many other factors.

Characteristics of feminized seeds

Planting feminized seeds will result in producing a larger harvest of buds with a good dose of resin. The amount of buds coming from female plants and the size of the buds is also bigger, which, added to the good doses of resin, will provide good results. In addition, feminized seeds are photoperiodic plants, which means that they flower depending on the hours of light and darkness of the day. Another important characteristic to take into account is that feminized seeds are the ones that produce the plants to be more lush and dense if we compare them with other types of seeds like, for example, the autoflowering ones.

Advantages of feminized seeds

One of the main advantages of feminized seeds is that their cultivation becomes a fairly simple experience since it is not necessary to carry out the process of identification and removal of male plants that must be done at the beginning of flowering and that is usually a complicated task. Not having male plants that can pollinate our crop is an important reason to choose this type of feminized seeds. In this way, we will increase the levels of resin and we will maximize the production of buds and their flavor. The cultivation of feminized seeds is a fast type of cultivation, which does not present too many complications and, in addition, allows the achievement of high quality plants. Thanks to this type of seeds, the productivity of the cultivation space is better used, either indoors or outdoors, and a greater uniformity of the product is achieved on a large scale. In addition, feminized seeds ensure, almost 100%, that no hemaphrodite plants grow. Another great advantage is that feminized seeds ensure us the non-appearance of males, which we would then have to discard. So we can germinate only the seeds that we want to use. In this way, we can save time, work and resources. Finally, it should be noted that this type of seed allows intensive cultivation and facilitates the process of using the cuttings for planting more quickly, thus achieving the cloning of the plant.

How to grow feminized seeds

Now that you know what feminized seeds are, their characteristics and main advantages, we want to solve all the doubts you may have about their cultivation and care. From Cogolandia we know that the choice of the type of seeds is not the only important thing but also their care and monitoring so that the plants grow correctly. For this, it is necessary to follow some steps and recommendations, depending on the type of seeds, so that everything goes well. In the case of feminized seeds, the optimum humidity level they need will depend, above all, on the stage they are at in their growth or life cycle. In general, the humidity range should be between 40 and 60%, although we must control the humidity so that it is not too high and thus avoid the appearance of mold, especially in its flowering stage. Temperatures should always be moderate, around 22ºC to 24ºC. The important thing is to avoid extreme temperatures as they could cause slow growth, among other problems. As for the fertilizersit is essential that they contain the 3 most important nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium), as well as some others such as calcium, iron, copper or magnesium among others. When using these fertilizers, it is important to administer them according to the recommended doses. The choice of soil in which to grow your seeds is also important. Feminized seeds will grow best in soil rich in nutrients, well aerated and with good drainage so that they can absorb all the necessary properties. If you are concerned about growing time, you should know that it depends a lot on the strain you want to use. Some strains, such as indica, grow very fast, with short flowering periods of 6-7 weeks, while other varieties such as sativas have a longer flowering period. In addition, there are some types such as feminized autoflowering seeds or fast flowering seeds that are usually ready after about 60 days from germination.
