Before you begin growing your marijuana plants, there are plenty of things you need to know first. Among these things, the most basic of all is to know which types of marijuana seeds you want to grow. There are lots of types of marijuana seeds depending on their specifications – their growing environment, strain and growth type.
What are the types of marijuana seeds based on their growing environment?
There are two types of seeds based on their growing environment – indoor and outdoor. Indoor marijuana seeds are those which grow best in indoor environments using various lighting systems as well as hydroponics. Basically, these seeds are the perfect choice if you don’t have enough outdoor space to accommodate your plants. Outdoor seeds on the other hand are those which thrive perfectly outdoors. They are usually the potent ones, and are also expected to produce larger yields as compared to indoor seeds.
Which seeds are available based on their strain?
Based on the strain, marijuana seeds could be classified as Indica and Sativa. Indica seeds are those which strains are consumed and used for medical purposes. They have low THC content but high CBD which is beneficial for treating depression and anxiety issues. Sativa seeds on the other hand contain high THC but low CBD, thus making the strains ideal for treating chronic pains.
Which seeds are available depending on the growth type?
Generally, there are three – regular, feminized and autoflowering. Regular seeds are those which produce both male and female plants, with a 50/50 ratio of producing both of them. Such seeds are basically far more stable than the other types. Feminized seeds are those which have a 100% guarantee of producing female plants upon maturity. Lastly, autoflowering seeds are those which produce plants which can completely flower even without the need of reducing daylight hours.
