Medikit, a CBD-rich, superbly tasting and highly potent strain
20 Dec 2018
You may have heard about Buddha Seeds for sure, a world-famous seed bank for the quality of its seeds. But probably you are not aware of its research efforts for the innovation and ongoing development of cannabis stains that do not stop surprising us.
Buddha Seeds, a Spanish company with more than 15 years of experience in the cannabis sector, focuses its efforts on genetic improvement to place and maintain their strains in the top market segments. Behind each strain is a hard work of selecting and stabilising desirable genetic traits, and exhaustive quality checks to ensure its final success, from germination to harvest. This work has gained the respect and loyalty of thousands of growers worldwide. Indeed, many varieties available on the market today originate from the early seeds of this bank. That is why, Buddha Seeds is now recognised at global level as a leading-edge seed bank.
Its multidisciplinary team includes engineers specialised in agronomy and biotechnology, who apply the most sophisticated technologies, such as a gas chromatography or genetic sequencing, to analyse plant genotypes and phenotypes. A specific methodology is used to characterise genes codifying enzymes responsible for the synthesis of cannabinoids. This methodology identifies the genomes of recently germinated seedlings to forecast their future cannabinoid profile in their adult state. This analysis is extremely advantageous for the genetic improvement programme that the bank breeders are carrying out, as it allows them to select the chemotype of parents and siblings without waiting until their flowering phase.
