When it comes to collecting, one of the most fascinating things you can choose to gather are cannabis seed products. These controversial little espresso beans are one of the most genetically engineered organic and natural products available, probably only slightly behind roses. The amazing characteristics along with the amount of different strains of seed available make them one of the most interesting and most difficult collections to begin.
One of the quests some collectors undertake is in an attempt to find their perfect hanfsamen. Every different strain holds a different set of attributes which will incorporate to offer the perfect seed that matches your taste. Here is what to look for...
THC
THC stands for 'Tetrahydrocannabinol'. This really is the key psychoactive component found in a fully produced cannabis plant and when you look for seed products you will see the THC percentage listed. Although your seeds won't contain any actual THC, every strain has been designed to reliably make a herb that will have this level of THC. If you are fortunate enough to reside in a country where growing cannabis is legal you will be able to test it out. If you are not, you will have to make do with your perfect seed getting the potential to produce certain degrees of THC.
Yield
An additional thing you might like to know about your cannabis seed is how much cannabis it could make if it were legal to grow it. Yield is normally measured in grams and is worked out by the average yield found by the breeder. If you like to know your seed could produce a high yield this is an attribute you might like to look at.
Pressure
Choosing a strain is not only about the essential statistics though. You find fairly similar THC and yield levels on different cannabis seeds so you need to choose a pressure you like. A good way to try this is to look at ones which have won legitimate awards for quality. The most prestigious of which is certainly the Great Times Cannabis Cup. Every year they judge what seed bank and what individual cannabis seeds is the best of the entire year. Feminized seeds are probably the most de rigueur right now.
