How Much Do Weed Seeds Cost?

Before you begin growing marijuana, the up-front costs and equipment might seem a little daunting. If you break things down into smaller steps, however, it can be easier to wrap your head around it and finally take action. In this article, we discuss the costs of seeds. We’ll explain how to know what aspects of seeds are worth paying for. We address the question of how much do pot seeds cost? You will also find out how and where to compare prices and what general price range to expect so you know you’re getting the best possible deal on your seeds.

Factors Affecting the Price of Marijuana Seeds 

Genetics

One of the most important factors of a seed that is absolutely worth the money is high-quality genetics. The higher the quality of genes, the higher the seed’s cost should be, at least as a general rule of thumb. High-quality genetics come from reputable seed banks and breeders that will not merely try to take advantage of people by cross-breeding an average male with a high-quality female.

Supply and Demand

Seeds rise and drop in costs, depending on how many of them are available and how high the demand is at a given point in time. Certain strains are more popular than others, and sometimes a particular strain can get extra hype, such as if it recently won an award. If there is a lot of demand for a specific seed and there isn’t the supply to meet it, companies will likely increase the prices. This is economics 101, but it’s easy to forget about external factors when shopping for seeds.

Production Costs

Another factor that affects seed costs is production costs. These mainly involve how much breeding work was put into creating the seeds, including specialized seeds such as feminized and autoflowers. Both of these are much more common (and much better quality) than ever before. Still, it should come as no surprise that they cost a little more than “regular” seeds, especially when you consider the fact that they will allow you, the grower, to be able to get your buds sooner after a quick and easy grow season.

Potential Legal Issues

Of course, while most people in the United States agree that cannabis should be legalized by now, there are plenty of areas and states in which it remains a crime to grow or possess marijuana. The good news is that this is headed in the right direction; every year, the number of states that have legalized marijuana increases. 

If you live in a state where it is explicitly illegal or is in a legal gray area, buying seeds takes on new weight. If weed is illegal in your home state, your options for buying seeds are a bit more limited. This is mostly because you don’t have the choice to walk into a brick-and-mortar store and buy seeds there, asking the shop clerks about their various wares. Instead, you will have to peruse online and order the seeds to be shipped discreetly to your doorstep. You need to trust the seed bank, so buy from a reputable online store.

THC Content

Another factor that will affect the price of weed seeds is the THC levels of the strain you are buying. In fact, the THC content level directly correlates to the price; the more THC the strain has, the higher the cost of the seeds will be. THC-rich seeds generally sell for triple the cost of their low quality, low THC counterparts. It makes sense if you’re considering the price per amount of THC, of course; the higher the THC, the fewer seeds you actually need to buy!

Tips for Finding Affordable Marijuana Seeds

Do your research 

Before you click the “submit” button on your seeds purchase, make sure you have done an adequate amount of research. Start by asking yourself how much do marijuana seeds cost? Read through some articles about different types of seeds sold, and look up what types of seeds would suit your grow setup best. This will help you get a better idea of the features to look for in different seeds, and you won’t waste money on something that isn’t going to grow properly for you.

Compare prices

Check out different seed banks and compare the prices they have for the strains you might be interested in buying. Also, find out what kind of bundles and guarantees they give you. For example, I Love Growing Marijuana will guarantee your seeds’ delivery — but did you know we also guarantee germination of your seeds? If you somehow end up with some seeds that won’t germinate for any reason, you get new ones free of charge. This can be incredibly valuable for any grower, new or old because it means you are guaranteed some level of success for your money. For that reason, when you’re comparing prices, make sure you’re comparing the other perks as well.

Look for discounts, sales, and VIP programs. 

One way of getting good seeds for a bit cheaper is to find deals, sales, discounts, and VIP programs. These can be a great way of saving money on a strain that you want. They also help you get more seeds for the normal prices of fewer seeds. That means you can store your seeds for future grow seasons to get the best bang for your buck.

VIP programs, or loyalty programs, allow those who would like to keep ordering from the same seed bank to enjoy certain perks and benefits, such as vouchers of various dollar amounts, to give them a reduction on their next order. This can really pay off, especially if you’re planning on growing marijuana more than once.

Buy directly from a seed bank.

Purchasing your weed seeds from a seed bank rather than from a middle man is the best way to ensure top quality seeds. It also allows you to buy different types and strains of seeds without having to worry about the quality of one that you’re trying for the first time. These seed banks take their work very seriously, giving you peace of mind as a customer.

Seed Banks that Ship to the U.S.A.

Get marijuana seeds shipped to your door wherever you are in the United States. ILGM seed bank has a reputation for selling high-quality weed seeds that come with free shipping and germination guarantee.

Of course, you can also get seeds for free from a friend who cultivates their own marijuana, but that’s not likely if you don’t already know someone who both grows and has seeds to spare. Dealers can also sell you seeds, but the quality assurance there is not the same. Seed banks can also be visited in person if you are lucky enough to live in a state where it is legal, and there are enough seed banks.

Get Recommendations

People trust word of mouth, and for a good reason. Ask fellow cultivators questions like, how much are marijuana seeds normally? This can get you started knowing what kinds of prices to expect, at least from that grower’s point of view. 

You can also get recommendations by reading articles online about different seed banks and strains. Plenty of websites offer these kinds of reviews, comparing seeds and banks side-by-side to give you, the consumer, the best overview possible.
