Seed Type Regular

Regular seeds are produced when cannabis plants with functional male and female reproductive organs are allowed to pollinate. Unlike feminized seeds, which are bred to produce only female plants, regular seeds maintain the natural genetic expression found in uncontrolled breeding environments. Breeders working with regular seeds rely on phenotype selection to identify desired traits across both sexes. This seed type is foundational in many breeding programs because male plants contribute essential genetic material and can reveal recessive traits. Regular seeds produce approximately 50% male and 50% female plants, requiring growers to sex and remove males during cultivation.

Breeders prioritize regular seeds for developing new cultivars, as male plants provide genetic diversity and allow for controlled crosses between specific parents. Regular seed lines preserve unmodified genetics and are often used as foundation stock for creating feminized or specialized seed types.
