Regular Seed
Regular seeds are the foundational seed type in cannabis genetics, produced through pollination of a female plant by a male plant. Unlike feminized seeds, regulars carry the full genetic diversity of both parents and produce approximately 50% male and 50% female plants. Historically, regular seeds have been the standard in seed banking and strain development, offering breeders access to the complete genetic expression of a lineage. Regulars remain essential in breeding programs where male selection, genetic stability testing, and hybrid development are priorities. Many classic strain families were established and stabilized using regular seeds over multiple generations.

Breeders working with regular seeds can identify and select superior males for specific traits—vigor, resin production, terpene profiles, or structure—making them indispensable for creating new crosses and maintaining genetic integrity. Regular seeds also allow breeders to work with recessive traits and establish inbred lines.
