Top 5 Regular Cannabis Seeds
Regular cannabis seeds operate just as nature intended. Every time you place a seed in the soil, you'll experience a 50/50 chance of watching a male or female emerge. Males produce pollen that enables you to breed at home, while females grow strong flowers and viable cuttings to make healthy clones and to skip the germination process.
Regular cannabis seeds emerge as both male and female plants, unlike feminized strains, which produce only flower-bearing ladies. Many home growers are looking for nothing but flowers, and therefore mostly opt for the latter. However, regular seeds serve a critical role when growing cannabis, from breeding to cloning.
WHY USE REGULAR CANNABIS SEEDS?
Why bother using regular cannabis seeds? Don’t they just crowd the growing space with males that growers need to sex and separate later on?
Sure, for some growers, regular seeds are more work than they’re worth. But don’t forget, we need regular seeds to ensure we have access to new strains and strong genetics. Breeders rely on regular cannabis seeds to access both flowers and pollen from female and male plants.
Using regular seeds, growers can pursue their own breeding projects at home. If you find a strain with an incredible terpene profile, and another with a pleasant high, you can cross them and create a cultivar that expresses both of these traits.
Apart from breeding, regular seeds are also a source of hardy and reliable genetics. Growers need them when they plan on growing from cuttings. Unlike feminized specimens, regular mother plants provide viable genes that create flourishing and productive clones.
5 OF THE BEST REGULAR CANNABIS SEEDS
If you’re interested in cultivating some regular seeds, you need to check out the 5 varieties below. These strains offer potent cannabinoid profiles, rare and exotic terpene blends, and productive genetics.
1. Garlic Mist Regular
Garlic Mist offers incredible tastes, massive yields, and a high that will leave you feeling uplifted and motivated for hours to come. Our breeders created this unusual regular strain by crossing Original Garlic Bud with Cali Sativa Haze. After stabilising these strains over several generations and sampling the offspring, they noticed something they’d never experienced before: Tastes of herbs, pepper, and garlic.
While the taste of garlic might sound off-putting, it actually synergises perfectly with the typical terpenes found within cannabis. This unique taste goes down superbly in vapes, edibles, and potent extracts. THC levels of 19% are an ideal addition to this eccentric mix. Together, this phytochemical cocktail produces a euphoric and clear-headed high perfect for daytime toking.
On top of her pleasant tastes and effects, Garlic Mist produces a rewarding yield that will keep your stash jars filled for some time. Indoors, this prolific regular strain produces between 550 and 600g/m². To maximise your harvest in a small tent or grow room, use the ScrOG technique to develop a tamed canopy loaded with flowers.
Outdoor plants produce up to 700g/plant and thrive in a mild climate. Transplant this strain into a greenhouse, polytunnel, or directly into the ground outdoors. Watch her climb to a medium height of 140–180cm and prepare to harvest and dry your bounty during early October.

2. Mango Crunch Regular
Mango Crunch also offers a whole new world of flavour. Many cannabis smokers are used to distinct tastes within each strain, from fruity profiles to more earthy or gassy. This mouth-watering regular variety completely breaks the rules and combines terpene rarely experienced together. Puff these flowers and experience waves of citrus, diesel, herbs, and pineapple wash across the tongue.
After crossing Mango Haze with Sour Diesel, our pro breeders created a progeny with a sativa-dominant genetic profile. She produces small yet dense flowers loaded with trichomes and decorated with dark orange pistils. Her THC content of 16% offers a moderate high that stimulates creativity and deep thoughts, without reducing functionality. Enjoy her buds during the day when working, writing, and getting things done.
Grow this versatile cultivar indoors and watch her grow to 90–140cm in height. Take advantage of LST to keep her at the lower end of this spectrum while optimising your harvest. Expect up to 500g/m² from these plants when using good lights and high-quality nutrients.
Plants grown outdoors grow to a slightly taller height of 140–180cm and produce 500–550g/plant. Sow companion plants such as dill and basil around this strain to keep pests at bay and attract beneficial critters. Get ready to harvest during early October.

3. Marula Fruit Regular
Marula Fruit ticks all of the boxes of a premium regular strain. She offers high levels of THC, tasty terpenes, big yields, and reliable genetics that thrive during the cloning process. After you smoke these sweet buds and experience her relaxing high, you’ll immediately want to start cloning your other plants to ensure a constant supply.
Not only do her cuttings create an army of clones at your disposal, but males produce pollen that infuses these tasty and powerful genetics in other strains you love. Play around—your dream strain is only a few crosses away!
Marula Fruit descends from a Mozambican landrace and a strain from Mendocino County, in California. She possesses 65% sativa genetics and 35% indica. Her resinous flowers display a tempting light green shade and harbour THC levels of 20%. Hit this strain in the afternoon and evening for a high that keeps the mind alert while relaxing every muscle in the body.
Indoors, growers can keep Marula Fruit at an easily manageable height, making her a suitable candidate for covert operation. You can expect a return of up to 475g/m² in small grow tents, closet, and cupboards.
If you prefer to grow outside, get ready for a yield of up to 650g/plant during early October. This strain thrives in biodiverse polycultures of companion plants, where the rich soil fuels her speedy growth.
4. Pumpkin Kush Regular
Pumpkin Kush brings something completely different to the table. Her large buds pack a THC content of 20% alongside aromas of candy, fruit, and earthiness. Her flowers will ripen just as autumn hits, and we’re telling you now that you need to experience her pumpkin flavours in an infused pumpkin spice latte. Savour the taste and buckle up for the intense ride!
This flavourful regular strain stems from the legendary Jamaican variety Lambsbread and also features genetics passed down from a Pre-98 Bubba Kush. She blends old-school taste and effects with huge harvests. Her flowers exert a soothing and clear-headed effect. Although she stimulates the mind, you’ll remain completely lucid and capable of getting on with day to day tasks without any issue.
Pumpkin Kush features sativa morphology and grows up to 140cm indoors. Keep her in veg for several months to create massive plants, or switch lighting right away if you want small, fast, and stealthy plants.
She peaks at a height of 180cm outdoors and produces a whopping yield of 650–700g/plant. You can take a backseat during the growing process, as she deals with pests and diseases incredibly well.

5. Exotic Witch Regular
Exotic Witch belongs in the collection of every cannabis connoisseur. As you show your cannabis-loving friends around your growing room, be sure to inform them of the impressive lineage of this strain. She stems from a landrace specimen discovered in the rainforest of the Indian subcontinent and an indica from Cali. These genetics converge to create a flavourful cultivar with a stoning indica kick.
Upon completing the tour, sit down for a tasting session. Ask your guests what they detect with each hit. You’ll likely bring smiles to their faces with distinct flavours of earthiness, fruit, and sandalwood. A physically relaxing high quickly follows this experience. Get ready to feel your muscles relax and sink into the couch as the conversation takes a philosophical turn.
Exotic Witch performs well both indoors and outdoors. Indoor plants yield 450–500g/m² after a flowering time of 7–8 weeks. Plants grown outdoors pump out between 500–550g/plant during early October.

WHICH REGULAR CANNABIS SEEDS SHOULD YOU TRY?
Regular plants offer something completely unique. You still get canopies full of flowers, along with the freedom of breeding your own strains and creating strong and hardy clones. The five strains above serve as excellent introductory strains into the world of regular genetics. However, the RQS archives feature many more regular varieties with different potencies, tastes, and rare traits.
