Understanding cannabis seeds

A botanical starting point, not a finished promise: what a seed can tell us about a future plant, and what it cannot.

Understanding CBD genetics

CBD-rich describes a chemical tendency of the plant. It is neither a therapeutic promise nor automatic legal clearance.

Understanding THC genetics

THC-oriented genetics is a subject of plant science. Its legal treatment requires a separate assessment.

Genetics, breeding and plant science

A careful reader’s vocabulary: genotype, phenotype, lineage and stability.

Cannabis seeds in the Swiss context

Seeds, cultivation, possession, consumption and trade are different legal questions. This overview does not replace a case-specific assessment.

The future genetics database

A development project with a clear method. No searchable variety profiles, catalogue or inventory yet.

CannabisSamenBank.ch: Discover the World of Cannabis Seeds and Genetics

A small seed is the starting point for remarkable botanical diversity. CannabisSamenBank.ch aims to make that diversity understandable, with traceable sources, clear terminology and an honest account of what remains unknown.

Are seeds available already?

No. CannabisSamenBank.ch is in development. There are no products, prices, stock or ordering facilities. Registration leads to the CannabisClub.ch community.

Is feminized the same as autoflowering?

No. Feminized describes a seed category aimed at female offspring; autoflowering describes flowering response. They concern different traits.
