Regular Marijuana Seeds Are the Best for Expert Growers
Regular marijuana seeds are the top pick for many experienced growers because they carry the full genetic diversity of their parents and grow into both males and females. That opens the door to breeding your own strains, picking standout mother plants for clones and exploring a wider range of traits. Kind Seed Co explains what sets regular seeds apart and why they reward growers with some experience.
What makes regular seeds different
A natural genetic lineage
Regular seeds are the product of natural reproduction between a male and a female plant. They carry their parents’ genetic lineage, and once you know a strain well, you can read its growth patterns and traits with more confidence.
Mother plants for cloning
Growing from regular seed lets you pick a standout female and keep her as a mother plant. Clones taken from her have identical genetics, so you can keep a successful plant going for many grows. That saves time and money over the long run. Our guide to making cannabis clones shows you how.
Strains for many setups
Regular seeds come in a wide range of strains, so you can find ones that suit indoor or outdoor grows. Keep them healthy with our guides to protecting marijuana plants from pests and bugs and the most common diseases in weed seedlings.
