F1 hybrids: More THC and bigger yields

F1 Hybrids: More THC And Bigger Yields

So, what exactly are F1 hybrid seeds? Thanks to some groundbreaking genetic advancements, these seeds provide unparalleled uniformity and stability never before seen in the world of cannabis growing. Furthermore, such stability and reliability ensures a substantial THC (or CBD) content alongside massive yields and superior disease and pest resistance. Unlike traditional strains, F1 hybrids seeds grow into plants that display near-identical characteristics—both in terms of growth and cannabinoid/terpene development.

What does F1 mean in breeding?

What does F1 mean in breeding?

The race car enthusiasts out there may assume that F1 stands for Formula One, but in fact, it is short for “filial 1”. The word “filial” is of Latin origin and means “the offspring of two parents”, which perfectly sums up the ethos behind the selective breeding of F1 hybrid seeds.

More specifically, F1 hybrid seeds are created by crossing pure genetic lines. Through a process of intensive inbreeding, it’s possible to give rise to a cultivar that consistently displays desired traits from each of its parent lines, with extremely low genetic variability among each plant. Despite being new to the cannabis scene, this process has been used to ensure high-quality, consistent results in vegetable and ornamental gardening for decades. 

As mentioned, F1 hybrid seeds offer up a game-changing growing experience thanks to their superb uniformity and production. Not only will the resulting plants provide a larger yield of THC or CBD-laden buds, but the plants themselves are easy and straightforward to manage. Cultivars are robust, stable, and offer a high level of resistance to insects and problematic pests.

And when we say these plants are uniform, we mean it; whether you grow one plant, 20 plants, or 20,000 plants, each one will display a near-identical structure and chemical profile. Simply put, F1 seeds are the perfect option for any level of grower.
