Seed Type
Seed type refers to the reproductive classification of cannabis plants—specifically whether they produce seeds naturally (seeded) or have been bred to eliminate seed production (seedless/sinsemilla). This distinction is primarily a horticultural and breeding trait rather than a chemical terpene profile, though it significantly influences cultivation practices and plant development. Breeders working in this category focus on feminization techniques, pollination control, and genetic stability to achieve desired seed outcomes. Understanding seed type is fundamental to modern breeding programs, as it affects everything from clone selection to breeding stock maintenance. The term has become standard nomenclature in both seed banking and commercial cultivation contexts.

Breeders selectively work with seed type to create stable female lines, establish breeding populations, and preserve genetic material. Seed type classification helps distinguish between open-pollinated genetics, F1 hybrids, and stabilized cultivars within a given lineage.
