Revolutionizing Cannabis Cultivation: Phylos F1 Hybrid Seeds
Feb 4, 2025

Cannabis Now
Cannabis cultivators face mounting pressure from rising costs and the
inherent difficulties of scaling production. Traditional cloning methods
demand expensive, skilled labor, especially for large-scale operations.
However, a seed-based approach offers a compelling solution. By switching
to seeds, cultivators can significantly reduce expenses related to labor,
facility overhead, and integrated pest management (IPM). This translates to
lower overall costs, optimized space utilization, and minimized risk,
ultimately empowering cultivators to allocate resources more strategically.
One of the first companies dedicated to cannabis science, Oregon-based
Phylos, a leader in advancing cannabis genetics, has leveraged a decade’s
worth of research and innovation to redefine cannabis cultivation. The
release of Phylos’ Elite F1 hybrid seeds represents a significant leap
forward in cannabis cultivation as these seeds replace the need for clones.
Nine of the top 10 commodity crops in the world are grown from seed;
however, growing cannabis from clones has been the standard method of
cultivation for decades because clones have historically exhibited the
highest level of plant-to-plant trait uniformity, a critical factor that
has long hindered the adoption of seed-based production in cannabis.
However, Phylos’ introduction of their Elite F1 hybrid seeds has redefined
seed-based cannabis cultivation. In their latest breeding cycle, Phylos
tested three Elite seed varieties, and results showed that Phylos seeds are
as uniform as clones in harvest height, wet biomass, and total THC.
Phylos is paving the way for a more efficient, affordable, and scalable
future in the cannabis industry with their feminized, F1 hybrid seeds that
produce uniform, potent, and aromatic flower.

Phylos is making it easier for growers—both large and small—to produce
top-shelf cannabis consistently at reduced production costs. Phylos uses
marker-assisted selection (MAS) to accelerate the breeding process by
increasing precision in selecting desirable traits like disease resistance.
This leads to more sustainable farming by boosting productivity, improving
crop resilience, and reducing the need for chemical inputs.
Phylos’ hand-selected cultivars then go through extensive testing protocols
and must meet rigorous performance standards before they are released to
the market, ensuring cultivators receive seeds optimized for uniformity,
potency, aroma, resilience, and yield. Phylos Elite seeds are setting a new
industry standard.
Let’s take a look at how Phylos seeds can help you take your operation to
the next level.
*1 – Rapid, **Uniform Harvests *
Scale your production fast by accelerating your top shelf flower production
with Phylos Elite photosensitive varieties. Designed for immediate
planting, these seeds eliminate the need for pheno-hunting or cloning,
saving valuable time. With shorter vegetative phases and uniform flower
maturation times of 7-9 weeks depending on variety, you can achieve rapid,
consistent harvests.
Phylos autoflower seeds are another option when time is of the essence.
These seeds reduce harvest time by up to 30 days, enabling multiple cycles
per year—up to 4 outdoors in warmer climates or 7.2 indoors. These seeds
offer predictable harvest times and consistent maturity in as few as 65
days from sow to harvest.
*2 – **Lower Costs and Labor Requirements*
Seed-grown cannabis offers significant advantages in terms of cost
reduction and labor efficiency. By switching to seed-grown cannabis, you
can maximize space utilization by eliminating the need for mother rooms,
freeing up valuable space for production.
Additionally, seed-grown cannabis simplifies operations by reducing the
labor-intensive tasks associated with cloning and mother room maintenance.
Seeds are easier to handle and require less specialized knowledge.
By adopting Phylos Production-Ready Seed, growers also benefit from lower
integrated pest management (IPM) costs and plant cleaning methods because
Phylos seeds start clean of pests and pathogens and are bred from HLVD-free
parents.
*3 – Environmental Resilience*
Phylos seeds are bred for agronomic performance, yielding well even under
less-than-ideal environmental conditions. With high emergence and
germination rates (90%+), growers can have confidence in their crops. Seeds
with strong tap roots are more resilient against environmental stressors.
These resilient seeds thrive in a variety of environments, from fully
outdoor to controlled indoor facilities.
*Redefining Cannabis Cultivation*
Phylos is at the forefront of making cannabis production more efficient,
sustainable, and accessible to growers of all sizes. This new era in
cannabis cultivation is characterized by efficiencies in production and
tailored consumer experiences.
High germination rates combined with direct planting capabilities reduce
labor and infrastructure needs while optimizing rapid yield cycles. Phylos
seed varieties are an excellent option for growers looking to elevate their
cultivation efforts.
Elite seeds produce top-shelf flower with high THC content and unique
aromas while offering vibrant buds. The resulting plants have high yields
with favorable A:B ratios. Premium varieties produce similar high potency,
high quality flower, and are optimized for outdoor environments.
*Prepare For Your 2025 Season With Phylos*
For cultivators looking to optimize their 2025 outdoor season while
ensuring high-quality outputs from seed-grown plants, Phylos offers a range
of seeds and expert resources.
With years of expertise in genetic research and product development behind
them, Phylos provides cultivators with a scientifically advanced solution
that delivers consistent results. They even offer commercial
growers pre-planting support and ongoing consultations to ensure success.
