Power Plant – Feminized Seeds Offer Stronger Plants
Power Plant, also known as THC – is one of the most potent strains of marijuana available. With a spicy, woodsy taste, Power Plant cannabis seeds have a little bit more than 19% THC, giving a happy, social, creative and uplifting high that can be a touch too powerful for those new to medical or recreational cannabis use. Some users also call it a grass-up high. The name “Power Plant” came about when the crop was discovered by a Colorado horticulturist and geneticist at the University of Colorado at Boulder. The discovery of the strain was reported in the peer-reviewed journal Marijuana Health and Research.
This particular strain was found to contain a unique amount of THC and CBD. Some of the other strains of cannabis that are available are also feminized, such as Charlotte’s Web and Girl Scout Cookies. However, unlike feminized cannabis seeds, the THC levels in these plants remain intact, often up to one thousand times greater than the normal amounts. For this reason, many consumers consider them illegal. In spite of this, Colorado growers produce and sell feminized cannabis seeds.
To understand why this type of cannabis seeds are in demand, you need to understand what they are used for and why. The original intent of the crop was for use by people who suffered from epilepsy and chronic seizures. These strains are thought to be particularly helpful with epileptic attacks, though there has been little clinical research on this aspect. Many users report good results with using the product, but it does seem that there may be some individuals who could benefit from avoiding the product entirely. Many people who do grow the plants report good results, however, even if their results are not life-changing.
In terms of the plant‘s genetics, the genetics of cannabis seeds are more complicated than you might think. In a study published by the University of Glasgow, geneticists from the University tested the effects of two different concentrations of THC on mice. One group of mice was given a regular dose of cannabis, while another group was given a lower or unidirectional dose of THC. The mice showed no increase in impairment on the task, despite the high or unidirectional dose of THC. The researchers reported, however, that when the same group gave the mice a high dose of CBD, that performance decrease was found to be significantly reduced.
In an effort to combat criminalization and protect the rights of legal cannabis users, many growers are now producing strains that are not considered “bath salts,” but are instead low potency herbal cannabis seeds. When you compare the potency of THC with CBD, you can see that there is very little difference. This allows parents to choose the strain that will help their child the most. There are so many strains of cannabis that are now being offered that it is easy for the grower to choose which will benefit each individual patient.
Growers that are new to the world of cannabis are often intimidated by the sheer number of choices available for their first crop. Feminized Seeds are an especially attractive choice for new users and cultivators. Since cannabis seeds are able to produce regular, consistent results, they eliminate the guesswork and frustration of growing a plant that will yield irregularly. Growers that are familiar with marijuana strains may be better able to choose the strains that are most effective for each particular patient. By eliminating the guesswork, female-grown cannabis has become a popular option.
Sativa cannabis is one of the more difficult types of cannabis to cultivate. It requires more time and patience than indica, although the end result is often stronger. Because it takes more time and effort, many farmers prefer to use feminized seeds to get more desirable results. Feminized buds are consistently more potent and flavorful than their male counterparts, making them ideal for medical marijuana use and cultivators that are seeking a stronger plant to make more powerful, medicinal potpourri.
Many South African growers are turning to the feminization process of their favorite cannabis seeds because of its high potential for resale. In the United States, medical cannabis users have expressed a willingness to pay more for crops that are more consistently potent. Women’s cannabis buds have also proven to be popular, even in states where medical cannabis is not yet legal. Some women have begun buying wholesale buds to sell at local farmer’s markets, and many other women are considering cultivating their own supply to provide to their own households. With the possibility of large profits on every harvest and a ready market for high-quality cannabis, feminized cannabis seems like a smart business move for South African farmers.
