Feminised Seeds for New Zealand: 1254 Light-Cycle Genetics
1254 photoperiod plants, which means you decide when they flower and therefore how large they get. Outdoors in New Zealand that decision is made for you as the autumn light shortens, so the real question is whether your first frost arrives before the plant finishes — a question with a very different answer in Northland than in Central Otago. Indoors it is simply a timer. The split here runs 608 indica-leaning, 186 sativa-leaning, 416 balanced hybrid.
Also worth a look: feminised indicas for compact plants and shorter flowering, feminised sativas for taller plants and a longer finish, feminised hybrids for a balance of the two, and autoflowering seeds if you would rather not manage a light cycle.

What this shelf holds
1254 varieties sit on this shelf right now, and the THC figures on their listings run from 1% up to 33%, with the middle of the group at 20%. Counted from the catalogue when this page was built, so it matches the grid below.
- Photoperiod, all female: 1254 of them (100%). You choose when they flower, and they carry the most weight per plant.
- Indica-leaning: 608. Short and wide, quicker to finish, and usually myrcene-forward.
- Sativa-leaning: 186. Taller, later, and worth the season length only where you have it.
- Balanced crosses: 416. Somewhere between the two, and generally the easier grow for it.
- CBD-forward: 44. Bred for a different cannabinoid balance, with THC correspondingly lower.
- First three alphabetically: $100 OG, 13 Dawgs and 24k Gold. The grid below filters on finishing time, height and type.

A Numerical Look at the Feminised Seeds
Of the 1254 varieties here, 608 lean indica (48%), 186 lean sativa (15%), 416 sit as balanced hybrids (33%), 44 are CBD-forward. None are autoflowering — all 1254 need shortening light to start flowering, which outdoors happens on its own as the New Zealand summer ends. The mean listed THC across the group is about 20%, which is a genetic ceiling rather than a guarantee — the figure a plant actually reaches depends on light, feeding and harvest timing. These counts are read from the catalogue when the page is built, so they move when stock moves and cannot drift away from what is listed below.
Matching These Genetics to a New Zealand Site
The distance from Cape Reinga to Bluff covers two genuinely different growing climates, and a plant that suits one can be caught out by the other. the Bay of Plenty gives you high sunshine hours alongside humid Marches that punish tight bud structure. Gisborne, by contrast, gives you first light in the country and dry summers, though the season narrows quickly after April. Read the flowering window on any variety you plan to grow outside against your own first-frost date, not against a national average. Plan around autumn moisture rather than temperature. Airflow through the middle of the plant, enough space between plants, and a variety that finishes before the weather closes in will save more of a crop than any feeding schedule.
Controlling Size and Timing on Photoperiod Plants
The advantage of a photoperiod plant is that you decide when it stops growing and starts flowering, and the cost is that you have to decide. Indoors, vegetate until the plant occupies roughly half the height you can afford, then flip to twelve hours of darkness — most varieties add 50 to 100% more height after the switch, and running out of headroom in week three of bloom is the most common way an indoor grow goes wrong. Topping or FIM around the fourth node spreads the canopy so light lands on more sites. Outdoors, the light does the switching for you as the New Zealand summer shortens, typically from late January, which makes your first frost date the real deadline. All 1254 varieties in this category work this way; none of them will flower on age alone.
