Regular Marijuana Seeds for Sale in Canada

Regular seeds grow both male and female plants, just as cannabis does in nature. They are the choice of breeders, seed savers and growers who want untouched genetics.

Regular marijuana seeds are unmodified cannabis seeds that produce both male and female plants, at roughly a 50/50 split. They are used for breeding, pollen collection, phenotype hunting and mother plants, because nothing has been done to suppress male expression. Expect to sex plants at about 4 to 6 weeks.

Regular seeds produce both males and females, which is exactly what breeding requires.

How regular seeds differ

Regular seeds come from a natural male and female cross, so roughly half will grow male. Nothing has been done to suppress male expression, which is why many growers consider these genetics the most stable and vigorous available.

Why breeders still prefer them

You cannot breed without males. Regular seeds give you the pollen needed to create crosses, stabilise a line over generations and produce your own seed stock instead of buying new seeds each season. They also make robust mother plants for taking clones.

What to expect from your grow

  • Roughly half will be male. Plan for it within your provincial plant limit.
  • Sexing takes time. Pre-flowers appear at the nodes after four to six weeks. Males show small pollen sacs, females show fine white hairs.
  • Separate early. Remove males before the sacs open, or isolate them if collecting pollen.
  • Phenotype hunting. Every seed is genetically unique, so you can select and keep the best plant.

Prefer buds without the sorting?

If you simply want flower and no males to manage, our feminized seeds are the practical alternative.

Regular marijuana seeds: frequently asked questions

What percentage of regular seeds are female?

Regular seeds produce roughly 50% female and 50% male plants, though any individual pack can vary. Growers who need a set number of females usually start extra seeds, within whatever plant limit applies where they live.

When can you tell if a plant from regular seed is male or female?

Pre-flowers normally appear at the branch joints about 4 to 6 weeks into growth. Males show small round pollen sacs, while females show fine white hairs called pistils. Males should be removed or isolated before those sacs open.

Why do breeders prefer regular seeds?

Breeding requires pollen, and only male plants make it. Regular seeds let growers create their own crosses, stabilise a line over several generations and produce their own seed stock instead of buying new seeds each season.

Are regular seeds better for mother plants?

Many growers think so. Because regular genetics have not been manipulated to suppress male traits, growers often report more vigorous, longer-lived mother plants for taking clones from.

Should a beginner buy regular seeds?

Usually not, unless the goal is breeding. A beginner who simply wants flower is better served by feminized seeds, which avoid the sexing stage and the risk of a missed male pollinating the whole crop.

Can regular seeds pollinate my other plants?

Yes, and that is the main risk. A single unnoticed male can pollinate every female nearby, producing seedy flower. Keep males well away from flowering females, or isolate them completely if you are collecting pollen.
