Grow Cannabis Seeds With Proper Methods of Feminization
Growing and planting marijuana seeds are quite exciting and fulfilling at the same time, especially when you are using the traditional methods of fertilization, as you have no control over the gender of the future marijuana plant. Cannabis growers cannot inform you about the plant’s gender till it has grown entirely. Nowadays, most enthusiasts prefer female seeds instead of male ones. But why? To know how to grow cannabis seeds and feminize them, it is important to understand the difference between them.
Initially, we should understand that only female cannabis plants can produce the highly potent flowers that transform into the weeds we know of since drying and curing them, especially when they are approaching the harvest season. The males instead start producing the pollen and fertilize the female plants if left alone, resulting in a drop in the yield and potency of your final harvest, which is why feminized seeds are primarily preferred.
Judging by the looks, the male marijuana plants appear unhealthy, with a couple of branches and leaves, while they mainly appear to become taller and thinner. The male marijuana plants are only required whenever they wish to produce their seeds. Alternatively, the female plants appear the opposite of the latter. They appear healthier and have more branches since they produce higher levels of THC.
Although feminized seeds are available readily nowadays, cannabis enthusiasts can widen their knowledge about the whys and hows involved. There are three distinctive ways to start feminizing marijuana seeds. These are tested and tried methods that should become triumphant if they use the proper way of generating female seeds.
Methods to Feminize the Marijuana Seeds
1. The simplest technique, modelization, is used for creating feminized marijuana seeds. It is an all-inclusive method by pushing the flowering female cannabis plant pasts its maturity. After this, they start producing the male sex traits and pollen. It produces a couple of seeds near the end of its lifecycle, and the females gain the pollinated ones that start producing all-female cannabis seeds.
2. Colloidal Silver is the method where you require the required amount of colloidal silver and a cup of distilled water. Try mixing both by using a spray bottle and start spraying on the branches of the tree every three days. Continue to spray till a male flower becomes audible. Continue spraying till the male flower attains visibility. Colloidal silver generates a greater number of pollen sacs. The male plants start producing the pollen used for the females with the maturity of these plants.
3. Also known as Silver Thiosulfate Solution, it is the process to make feminized seeds. The methods involve the combination of sodium thiosulfate and silver nitrate. Using this method, the solution found in these feminized seeds is the hormonal stress triggering the gender or the marijuana.
These are the methods that are used widely for feminized marijuana seeds today. Cannabis enthusiasts are taking these additional cautions for creating them. However, the reputation of the seed banks is creating a massive range of female seeds with varied strains available.
