Question 1

How long do regular cannabis seeds take to harvest?

Accepted Answer

It all depends on the genetics you choose and how you grow, so the period from seed to harvest can last anywhere from around 9 weeks to 7+ months! Every strain at Herbies comes with the flowering time specified in its characteristics - select one and learn about the approximate seed to harvest time.

Question 2

Are feminized cannabis seeds as good as regular seeds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the only difference is that feminized seeds don’t require sexing. All other features depend on genetics.

Question 3

Is cannabis from regular seeds stronger than feminized seeds?

Accepted Answer

No. If you browse our catalog, you’ll see that feminized and regular seeds can be equally potent in both THC and CBD.

Question 4

Do regular cannabis seeds produce higher yields than feminized seeds?

Accepted Answer

No, a female plant from a regular cannabis seed will produce more or less the same yields as a plant from a feminized seed. However, you need to remember that with regular seeds, you won’t be able to harvest buds from every seed you germinate, as at least some of them will likely turn out to be male.

Question 5

Can regular cannabis seeds be female?

Accepted Answer

Of course! Regular seeds can produce both male and female plants.

Question 6

What percentage of regular cannabis seeds turn male?

Accepted Answer

Normally, there’s a 50/50 chance of getting female plants from regular seeds. However, there can be fluctuations, so you won’t know for sure until each plant shows its sex.

Question 7

Do autoflowering cannabis seeds germinate faster than regular seeds?

Accepted Answer

No, germinating regular cannabis seeds doesn’t differ from germinating other types. The germination rate and speed depend on the environment and the freshness and quality of the seed, not on whether it’s regular, photoperiod, feminized, or autoflowering.

Question 8

When should I choose regular, feminized, or autoflowering seeds?

Accepted Answer

To put it simply, choose regular marijuana seeds if you’re looking for a cheaper price and don’t mind discarding the male plants. Regular seeds are also your only choice if you want to breed your own strains. Choose feminized seeds instead if you want to use your growing space as efficiently as possible and don’t want to deal with sexing. Finally, choose autoflowers if you prioritize low-maintenance grows and want to grow a smaller and quicker-flowering plant.
