Cannabis Seeds Levis

A city in eastern Quebec, Lévis sits on the St. Lawrence River and is known for its quaint, village-like feel and beautiful, time-worn architecture. From enjoying the views to exploring the historic train yards, it is a city rich with charm.

In 2018, Canada became the first major economy to fully legalize cannabis. While homegrown cannabis is banned in Quebec, consuming marijuana for recreational purposes is legal—so long as the cannabis is purchased through the Société Québécoise du Cannabis (SQDC). Purchasing cannabis from a friend or website other than  SQDC is not permitted. 

In Quebec, the limits of other forms of cannabis are equivalent to 30 grams of dried cannabis. For example, individuals may possess up to 150 grams of fresh cannabis or up to 7.5 grams of extracts, to name a few examples. In your home, you may possess up to 150 grams of dried cannabis.

Famous for poutine, maple syrup, and cobblestone streets—to name a few—Quebec also has a thriving cannabis culture. In fact, it’s home to the charismatic sativa strain Jean Guy.

One of the most noteworthy marijuana plants in the Quebec, Canada cannabis community, this plant is known for its ability to produce a heightened sense of mental and physical bliss.

With a THC content of up to 25%, the Jean Guy strain is beloved for its potent, versatile effects. A delicious strain with citrus notes, it provides an initial sense of sharpened thoughts and mental clarity—yet its strong indica component simultaneously melts away tension. At just over 1% CBD, it provides soothing, relaxed effects and is an excellent example of the effects of cannabinoids. Jean Guy will spend up to 10 weeks flowering before ready for harvest. Yet what it lacks in size it makes up for with its delicious, resin-rich nugs.  What it lacks in crop size it will make up for in dense and delicious nugs. 

While regular marijuana seeds have a 50/50 chance of producing male and female plants, feminized marijuana seeds are bred to produce only female plants. Normally, when plants are pollinated by males, they will produce both seeds and resin-covered flowers. However, they will also prioritize seed production, which results in buds with reduced potency. Feminized marijuana seeds are beneficial because they produce notably high THC levels as well as CBD. Accordingly, they are desired by growers seeking especially potent yields. Because of this quality, there is an abundance of existing marijuana strains bred to be feminized.

While every situation will vary slightly, as a general rule, feminized plants cannot be bred and are more challenging to clone. However, any of these potential drawbacks may be outweighed by the virtual guarantee of female plants and buds with enhanced quality.

Regular seeds are preferred by growers looking to experiment in breeding new strains, regular weed seeds tend to have a more affordable price, but also tend to produce less potent yields. Unlike auto-flowering varieties, which tend to be fast-flowering seed strains, regular seeds grow at the normal rate.

Autoflowering cannabis seeds have a special genetic quality: Thanks to their ruderalis lineage, they are especially tough, resilient, and have a shorter flowering period. While they may be less likely to trigger a record-busting harvest, they have many other attributes: They’re famously low-maintenance. In fact, there’s an excellent chance they’ll require no adjustment of light cycles at all. They also don’t necessarily require pleasant weather; they’re famous for thriving in less-than-ideal outdoor conditions. Finally, they are typically disease and pest-resistant seed strains. All of the aforementioned qualities make auto-flowering seeds suitable for both outdoor growers and beginners.

CBD cannabis consumption differs from traditional cannabis in that it will not produce the psychoactive effects associated with THC. The second most common cannabinoid found in cannabis, CBD is known to provide mental focus and clear-headedness without the mind-alerting effects. Strains high in CBD have a variety of applications: Many find it helps alleviate stress and boost mood, while in general, high CBD and low THC plants are fantastic strains for those seeking soothing properties.

Another important feature of many marijuana strains is their respective indica and sativa content. While both indica and sativa will produce plants with buds rich in cannabinoids such as THC and CBD, they have as many differences as similarities. Additionally, consumption of marijuana will have a variety of effects depending on the strain; indica and sativa content will heavily influence the effects of any individual strain.

You’ll often see strains described as “sativa-dominant,” “indica-dominant” or a “balanced hybrid.” This simply refers to the indica or sativa levels, respectively, and therefore, the characteristics and effects of the strain. Below are some brief explanations of what to expect from these three varieties.

Sativa strains are known for their cerebral effects and are typically ideal strains for daytime use. Commonly referred to as a “head high,” cannabis sativa strains will typically impact the mind. This may include a clarified thought process, a sense of mental invigoration and energy, or a simple, calm lucidity. Depending on the strain, these effects may vary and will have their own unique nuance. However, if you’re seeking heightened perception, sharp thinking, a boost of creativity—or any related cerebral effects, we recommend researching various sativa strains to get a sense of which you might like best.

Indica strains are known for their calming and relaxed effects. They produce a highly soothing, sometimes sleepy state—often referred to as “couch lock.” This makes them ideal for nighttime use—or for lazy, uneventful days that can be devoted to relaxation. Indica strains tend to have a shorter flowering period than sativa and are typically deep green in color.

You can often tell whether a marijuana plant is an indica or sativa simply by observing it. Because sativa plants are naturally found in hot climates, such as in Central America or Africa, they tend to be tall and slender.  Indicas are found in mountainous regions within Europe and Asia and are associated with the Hindu Kush region. They tend to be smaller in size—shorter, stockier, and with dense growing patterns. Indicas also tend to be more resilient than sativas.

Hybrid strains are created by cross-breeding different cannabis varieties. This typically results in a unique combination of characteristics. You may feel an initial sense of mental clarity and energy followed by heavy, relaxing euphoria. While it’s possible to find pure sativas and indicas, respectively, most strains available are actually hybrids. By drawing from a combination of sativa and indica genetics, they tend to provide a nuanced blend of both physically relaxing and mentally energizing effects. Diesel, White Widow, Gorilla Glue, Tangerine Dream, and Skywalker are some of the most popular hybrid strains available today—and we always ship in discreet packaging.
