Why Grow Pure Genetics Marijuana?

If you have ever grown your own marijuana plants from regular cannabis seeds, then you know how rewarding the hobby can be. However, growing plants this way is a painstaking process that takes time, patience, and dedication. Some people have discovered an alternative to cultivating their plants from regular cannabis seeds, and that is buying marijuana seeds online. However, with so many companies on the Internet selling these products, it can be hard to decide which company is best to purchase from.

One of the biggest differences between regular cannabis seeds and phenotypes is the type of plant that is used. Regular seeds are created from marijuana plants that have already been started from seeds. Most marijuana growers choose to start with two kinds of seeds: one with female flowers and one with male flowers. Female flowers are feminized, which simply means that they contain more estrogen than male flowers. Since the plant relies on the natural environment to reproduce itself, feminized seeds are much easier to germinate and grow.

Male plants do not contain estrogen. They are known as true breeding stock, meaning that they will naturally reproduce. True breeding stock has a very low chance of getting marijuana infection. The high of getting infected by other insects or diseases makes it even harder for true breeding stock to produce high quality marijuana. Thus, true breeding cannabis seeds are sold at a high price when compared to regular seeds.

Since it is rare to find true breeding stocks, most growers rely on cross-breeding. Cross-breeding basically means replacing one characteristic of one species with another characteristic of another species. For example, there are many plants that grow well with nitrogen. However, farmers prefer to cross-breed these plants with tomatoes, for its high sugar content and its ability to autoflower. In order to make use of these traits, farmers take away the desirable characteristics of one species and put them onto another species.

Autoflowering or self-sterilizing seeds are often sold at a higher rate as compared to regular seeds because of its desirable characteristics. Self-sterilized marijuana seeds are usually crossbred to achieve specific results. For example, a desirable trait to breed for would be color. In crossbreeding, the desired trait can easily be accomplished since it is likely to produce a cross with a self-sterilized seed that already contains the desired characteristics. Therefore, the chance of getting quality marijuana increases.

Pure genetics means that it is pure. This also means that it has no defects in it, unlike hybrid marijuana seeds that have been crossbred and altered. Since pure genetics does not have defects, it also ensures that you are getting true genetics. True genetics is important in making sure that the plant is truly marijuana and not an alternative strain. By ensuring the purity of its genetics, you are also guaranteed that you are getting a pure product.

The process of crossbreeding marijuana seeds usually takes two to three weeks. Crossbreeding starts when a regular cannabis plant with male and female parents is separated in the greenhouse. The male parent will stay outside to ensure that the female parent produces a healthy male. Once the female parent comes out, it will need to be enclosed in a plastic bag to prevent it from becoming tainted. A timer will be used to determine the exact time that the plant must be separated.

The process for pure genetics has become more challenging in recent years. The most popular method that is used is breeding the plants in-order to make a continuous high. However, many experts claim that this process is highly inefficient because it is highly likely that the plant could have various traits that will increase its attractiveness to buyers but that it will decrease its potency. Another issue with pure genetics is that it is expensive since it is required to crossbreed thousands of plants to produce just one hybrid. The reason why it is so expensive is due to the amount of work and research that goes into creating each specific plant. With hybrid marijuana, the process of crossbreeding no longer needs to occur because these newer plants are believed to have a higher percentage of traits that will help them retain their health and original characteristics.
