Have you always dreamt of growing your own cannabis? Clone and seed season has begun at KindPeoples Dispensary on Soquel Avenue, so now is this the time to fulfill that dream.
When it comes to starting your cannabis garden, one of the first decisions you’ll have to make is whether to grow from cannabis seeds or cannabis clones. Both options have their advantages and unique characteristics that cater to different growers’ needs and preferences.
In this blog, we’ll explore the differences between cannabis clones and seeds, helping you make an informed decision for your next grow.
Understanding Cannabis Seeds
Cannabis seeds are the traditional way to start your grow. Seeds contain the genetic material that will determine the characteristics of the plant. Here are some key points about cannabis seeds:
- Genetic Diversity: Weed seeds offer a wide range of genetic diversity. You can choose from various strains, each with their own unique flavors, aromas, and effects.
- Growing from Scratch: Growing from seeds allows you to cultivate plants from the very beginning, giving you complete control over their development and growth.
- Female and Male Plants: While seeds can produce both male and female plants, only the female plants produce the flowers we cultivate for consumption. This means you may need to identify and remove male plants during the growth cycle to avoid compromising your harvest.
- Time and Patience: Starting from seeds takes longer than clones, as they require germination and the early growth stages before reaching maturity. Want to learn more about sprouting cannabis seeds? Here’s 12 helpful tips.

The Benefits of Cannabis Clones
Cannabis clones are cuttings taken from a mature female plant. Cloning allows you to replicate a specific strain with known qualities. Here’s what you need to know about weed clones:
- Consistency: Cannabis clones provide a high level of consistency in your grow. Since they are genetically identical to the parent plant, you can expect similar growth patterns, flavors, and effects.
- Faster Growth: Clones generally have a quicker growth cycle than seeds. They skip the germination stage and can be placed directly into the vegetative phase, allowing for faster harvests.
- Elimination of Male Plants: When you grow from clones, you know that all plants will be female, eliminating the risk of unwanted male plants.
- Easier for Beginners: Cloning can be a more accessible option for novice growers. With clones, you can focus on nurturing the plants without worrying about the complexities of seed genetics. Learn more about getting started with cannabis clones in our blog.
Choosing the Right Option for You
The decision to grow from seeds or clones ultimately depends on your experience level, preferences, and goals. If you’re seeking genetic variety and are patient enough to go through the germination process, seeds may be the right choice. However, if you’re looking for consistency, faster growth, and a more straightforward approach, clones could be the better option.
