Pheno Finder Seeds: 13 Feminized Strains From Kept Phenos

Four plants, one small tent, no space for a runt. That's the situation this shelf is built for: 13 strains where somebody already did the sorting, so you're buying a plant that got kept rather than a lottery ticket.

A Team Spread Across Holland, Spain and the USA

Pheno Finder Seeds is a group of growers and breeders working out of Holland, Spain and the USA. Their stated mission is the finest feminised strains and the most sought-after phenos of new and classic strains, and they've got multiple Cannabis Cups and awards behind them. The catalogue stays small on purpose. Thirteen strains, not two hundred, which is worth knowing if you came from a big seedbank menu on the wider cannabis seeds shelves. Notorious OG grew out of an OG Kush cut they sat on quietly for more than two years before crossing it.

What a Pheno Actually Is

The genotype is the code in the seed. The phenotype is the plant you actually get once that code meets your room: your light, your feed, your night temps. Two seeds from one pack can throw different phenos, one taller, one frostier, one that smells like lemon peel and one that leans earthy. Pheno hunting means growing out a whole population, letting them all finish, then keeping the single standout and cloning her. That's the work that happens before any of these packs exist.

Why Some Names End in S1

S1 means self-pollinated. The breeder gets one selected female to make pollen, then pollinates her with herself, so the seeds copy that single plant instead of mixing two parents. Simple Wedding Cake S1 and Purple Strawberry Bliss S1 work that way, and so does Double Slurry, an S1 of the Slurricane #7 cut. You get tighter consistency pack to pack. You also get fewer surprises, which is exactly the point when you want the kept plant and not a new one.

The Trophy Shelf

Lemon Bubble is the heavy scorer: 1st Place Seed at Finder Cup 2015, 1st Place THC at Valencia Copa 2015, 3rd at High Times Cannabis Cup 2014, 3rd at Expo Grow Run 2014 and 2nd at Secret Cup Canaria 2014. Her flowers push out a sharp citrus smell weeks before you cut them, so a carbon filter is not optional with this one. Notorious OG took 2nd at Copa Cannaval 2014 and 3rd at the Canary Islands Cup 2015. Fromage Blue took 2nd at the Canary Island Cup 2015, Purple Strawberry Bliss S1 took 3rd at the IC 420 Sativa Cup 2014 in Amsterdam, and Simple Wedding Cake S1 comes down from a High Times Cannabis Cup winning cut.

Which One We'd Run First

Flowering across this shelf sits between 8 and 10 weeks. Do Z Dos is the quick one at 8-9 weeks and turns lime green and deep purple if you can drop night temps in the last stretch. Rainbow Cake stretches hard, comes down in 9-10 weeks, and can pass 25% THC. Purple Strawberry Bliss S1 sits at 15-20%. Watch out for MAC 11: it wants close attention on room conditions, so a first grow is better off with Notorious OG, bushy, low-maintenance and done in 9 weeks. Auto Fruity Kuntz is the only autoflower here, so if you want a full rack of autos, browse the main cannabis seeds category instead. Everything ships fast and discreetly, packed so nothing on the outside says seeds.
