What’s the difference between autoflower seeds and feminized and regular variants?

Significantly, there are three versions of  seeds to choose from, each having different qualities and results. Below, we provide information on these variants to help you select the best option for your garden:

Auto Flower Seeds

These seeds have been modified with ruderalis genetics, allowing   plants to flower regardless of the light. Since their use, experienced cultivators can grow multiple crops all year and generate yields in half the time.

Feminized Seeds

 Altered genetics give these  seeds the ability to germinate 99% female plants. They’re the best option for beginner cultivators or anyone wanting to produce generous harvests.

Regular Seeds

This version has a 50% chance of developing into germinating female or male crops. Nonetheless males are useful only to breeders, so remove them from your garden before ruining your harvest.
