What Are Feminized Marijuana Seeds?

Most seed banks online which offer marijuana seeds will also have the option to purchase feminized marijuana seeds as well. With some websites the cost for these feminized seeds will be more than their normal price and up to triple the cost but others will not charge much more than the normal seed price.

What Are They?

With most seed banks charging a lot more for these seeds you will need to know if they are really beneficial. Feminized marijuana seeds are seeds which only produce female plants. If you use normal seeds the chance of having a female plant or male plant is 50% so half of your seeds are essentially garbage. With feminized seeds you will be using all your seeds and you’re guaranteed female plants to grow.

How Are They Made?

Feminized marijuana seeds are created through taking a female clone and shocking it to produce male flowers and pollen on it. The female clone will not develop any male characteristics but will still ultimately produce marijuana seeds. Since there were no male plants involved in the seed production process you will only get female plants when the seeds are planted. If you are considering feminized marijuana seeds it may be the best option for your first grow but for a larger grow you will have to learn various other growing techniques to save on costs and effort.
