Feminized Hemp seeds mean growing hemp seedlings into female plants exclusively. This feminization process allows plant seed producers to breed plants that are almost entirely feminine. Bhutan Glory seeds is a sample of feminized hemp, and the Bhutan Glory seeds are for sale in the USA.
It is noted that the hemp plants are male and female. The male hemp plants create pollen (seed), which they use in pollinating the female plants, while the female hemp plants on their produce flowers, and when the male plant pollinates the female hemp plants, all their flowers are filled with seeds, which can be costly in production.
Generally, the male hemp plants produce some amounts of CBD and CBG oil; female hemp plants produce much, much more! The largest quantities of CBD and CBG oil are extracted in the flowers of female hemp plants.
Reasons to choose feminized hemp plants
Below are some of the great reasons why hemp farmers choose feminized hemp.
Better budgeting and forecasting
Better budgeting and forecasting are achieved by hemp farmers when they are aware that by planting feminized hemp seeds, they can better estimate their crop yield and know their expected profits.
This has been a relief to hemp growers, knowing effective budgeting for expenses and negotiating with buyers can be achieved in hemp farming.
Higher profit
It is the highest investment and profit to grow and put Feminized Hemp Seeds for sale. Knowing that regular hemp seeds are likely to have the two variations, male and female mixed, gives the farmer an unguaranteed profit due to the extra cost of processing the flowers.
This extra cost ranges from extra money and time to deseed the flower. When farmers use feminized hemp seeds, there is a greater rate of over 99% of the planted hemp seeds will germinate to be a producer of CBD or CBD oil.
No seed to worry about
Female hemp plants that are not pollinated grow seeds in their flowers. Farmers can immediately harvest and cure the entire flower or even sell the flower buds directly to their buyers. Pollinated females are too expensive to cultivate, and deseeding the flower alone can delay the product’s getting to the expected buyers in due time.
Better protection
Hemp plantation is better when the plants are well arranged and designed in rows. This creates canopy-like protection for the hemp from weeds and even some pests. When weeding, the male hemp plants are removed from the rows for better and more productive cultivation. This destroys the canopy arrangement and leaves the remaining female plants more vulnerable to weeds and destructive pests.
Lesser work
When a farmer chooses to plant regular hemp seeds, it takes up to six weeks until the hemp plants reach the pre-flower stage. This is practically the only time you can accurately know the sex of the germinated plants. The farmer needs to take out extra time to assess every plant distinctively and cull the male hemp plants.
