What are feminized Lowrider seeds?

Just like all marijuana plants, the Lowrider marijuana plants is either male or female – the male produces flowers, the female Lowryder plants produce buds with can be dried and smoked.

A standard pack of Lowryder marijuana seeds will produce a mixture of male and female plants in a roughly 50/50 ratio.

Feminized Lowrider seeds are produced by cloning and “shocking” female plants by some difficult processes.The seeds from the Lowrider plants that have been treated in this way will only produce female plants – hence they are called feminized Lowrider seeds.

Why do people buy them?

There are number of reasons why many experienced growers choose to buy feminized Lowrider seeds. Male Lowrider plants have very low levels of THC, so they cannot be used to smoke.

Furthermore, if a crop has a mixture of sexes it is necessary to identify and separate the male Lowryder plants as soon as possible to make sure they do not fertilize the female Lowrider plants – unfertilized female plants produce bigger, riper buds, while fertilized females produce smaller buds that are filled with marijuana seeds.

Good growing can still be done with ordinary seeds and mixed sex plants, but it can take a lot more effort, and yields can vary greatly.
