SEED PRESERVATION

A cannabis seed is a perceptible living being to be activated. It contains all the genetic information that its parents have printed on it and what is necessary to germinate while waiting for the right conditions to do so. As we well know, water and a temperature above 18º degrees will activate the germination process. It is for this reason that if we want to keep these cannabis seeds for several years we must avoid activating them or they deteriorate.

FACTORS INVOLVED IN THE CONSERVATION OF CANNABIS SEEDS

To preserve cannabis seeds, we will have to take into account mainly three factors:

• Humidity
• Temperature
• Light

If you follow the conservation guidelines that we will give you below, you will be able to start growing your own plant of marijuana whenever you want. Humidity : As we have mentioned, water activates the germination of the marijuana seed, and it is for this reason that it is not only necessary to avoid water but also high relative humidity. Check out tropicana cookie seeds, kush mints seeds and white russian seeds.

The perfect humidity for the conservation of marijuana seeds is between 10% and 20% . In this regard, our packaging contains silica balls that will help reduce the humidity of the container and its conservation. Still put the container in a dry place. Temperature : Cannabis seeds in their natural environment accumulate inside the dead plant, preserved by the plant mass of the plant, the resin and the cold. Thus, the seeds spend a period of 3 to 4 months dormant, waiting for the first rains of spring and the rise in temperatures.

The objective is to keep the marijuana seeds in these winter temperature conditions, between 5º and 8º degrees centigrade. Light : The very nature of the plant already teaches us that it needs to avoid light for its conservation . Cannabis plants store their seeds inside resin-covered calyxes. The combination of calyxes and resin will prevent the cannabis seed from coming into contact with light and water. Light deteriorates all types of seeds, so it is easy to find a dark place. If we take these aspects into account and comply with them perfectly, a marijuana seed must be kept in perfect condition for at least 5 years. It may be the case that the seeds germinate even 10 years later, but methods will have to be used to help them and the germination rate will be very low.
