Using Regular cannabis Seeds to Cross Breed With Other Strains
When you buy a regular cannabis seed you may very well be buying some of nature’s best medication. Regular cannabis seeds contain a high concentration of Cannabidiol (CBD). This is the substance that gives cannabis its distinctive, healing properties – it has a sedative effect, anti-inflammatory action and a great ability to relieve the pain and discomfort of chronic illnesses such as cancer. A regular cannabis seed can often contain many hundreds of CBD molecules, each of them with a very different effect.
Male plants rarely produce flowers. They usually grow up to six weeks and produce small fruit which hardens into a spore. The flower heads are quite small and contain large amounts of Cannabidiol. Female plants normally live for one to two years and produce large flowers that look like berries. As the flowerheads matures they harden into a spore, containing up to 75% of the Cannabidiol. To see which is which, the female plants have to be sown and cultivated before they “age” or start to show signs of becoming females (soft, pre-flowering spores).
The females, or flowering cuttings, contain only a small amount of the Cannabidiol. These flowers are so small that they are unlikely to attract bees or other insects that eat bigger flowers. They will produce a lot of pollen, however, and can often be used to spread across large areas, particularly when used as an attractant. It is possible to breed large numbers of females through cross-breeding. Cross-breeding can also be assisted through the process of artificial insemination.
There are three different methods of cross-breeding for regular cannabis seeds. In one method, a cross is made between male and female plants. This is the cheapest and easiest way to breed. This approach works well if there are only a couple of differences between the male and female plants. Some examples of conditions that cause this type of cross-breeding are disease, genetic weaknesses, and the presence of other pests. If the plants have many strengths, it is likely that one or more of the parents will have crossed that with another plant, making that plant stronger and more fertile.
Cross-breeding can also be achieved through self-rearing. To do this, seeds from one specific part of the world are harvested and given to mothers who in turn give birth to clones. clones are created when the mother plants have many leaves, unlike with the standard mother plant. It is not uncommon for breeders to cross their regular cannabis seeds with several of these mother plants to make stronger and more fertile strains.
Another way of cross-breeding is through the process of feminization. Feminized seeds are created by selecting one plant in each pair that displays the desired characteristics. These plants are then multiplied so that feminized seeds are created. This is more expensive and time consuming compared to regular seeds, but it gives you consistent harvests.
While cross-breeding and feminization are methods used by many breeders, pure genetics is the method preferred by some. Pure genetics means that the traits of the parents and grand parents are left behind. Unlike cross-breeding which selects for the strongest traits, pure genetics relies on the overall characteristics that you want to see in your crop. Some common characteristics used by breeders include hardiness, taste and smell, size and shape.
In order for a plant to grow according to your expectations, you need to use carefully selected marijuana varieties that are known for producing specific characteristics that you need in your crop. Regular cannabis seeds may produce impressive results when mixed with other types. However, to achieve even greater results, you should also make sure that the resulting crop is made from pure genetics. Cross-breeding certain plants will not improve the chances of having an outstanding crop if there is no true pure genetics in its composition. If you are interested in cross-breeding different types of cannabis with the help of regular cannabis seeds, it is best to go for feminized seeds as they have been proven to produce regular crops with greater yields.
