Hemp cultivation is experiencing a period of great growth, thanks to the increasing demand for flowers and biomass rich in cannabinoids such as CBD, CBG and CBDV. For farmers who want to enter this growing market, choosing the right seed strain is crucial. In this article, we will explore the best certified seed strains available, recommend the ones best suited for producing high-quality flowers and biomass, and offer tips for a successful start in the industry.
1. Seed varieties certified for the production of CBD, CBG and CBDV
The choice of variety is a fundamental step to obtain high quality flowers and biomass, and must take into account not only the genetics of the plant, but also the market needs and legal regulations. At Canapuglia we offer a selection of feminized varieties, certified by the European Union, which guarantee the highest quality and compliance with regulations.
Certified varieties:
-
Enectalian CBD
One of the most appreciated strains for CBD production, characterized by excellent resistance and an intense aromatic profile. -
Enectarol CBG
Ideal for those looking for high concentrations of CBG. It is an innovative variety with growing potential in the market. -
Midwest CBD
A robust strain that grows well even in variable climate conditions, with CBD-rich flowers and a high yield. -
Northwest CBD
With an excellent CBD content, it is perfect for those who aim to obtain a high-quality product with high productivity. -
AutoPower CBD

To learn more about the specifics of each variety, you can consult the details on our website in each variety here or request further information directly from our team by sending an email to info@canapuglia.it
Non-certified varieties:
If you are looking for strains for experimental research or testing, we can offer a selection of non-certified feminized strains, which may be more suitable for experiments, but with a higher risk of legal protection:
- Strawberry CBD
- CBDV Elixir
- Perugina CBG
- Botanicmed CBD (also available in autoflowering version)
- Merlot CBD
- Berry Blossom CBD
- Auto No-Name CBD
These strains are ideal for growers looking to test new cannabinoid profiles, but are not recommended for commercial use as they are not certified.
2. Dioecious varieties for flower and biomass production
In addition to feminized varieties, some dioecious varieties such as Carmagnola , Kompolti , Finola , and Tiborszallasi are popular choices for flower and biomass production. These varieties can produce high-quality flowers if they are managed properly during cultivation, by applying the technique of demaschimento (removal of male plants). This way, growers can avoid pollination that would compromise the quality of the flowers.
3. Important factors for good flower production
To obtain quality flowers, it is not enough to just choose the right variety. There are several factors to consider:
-
Type of cultivation : Indoor cultivation is often preferred for obtaining high-quality flowers, due to the possibility of optimal control over the climatic conditions. However, greenhouse and outdoor cultivation can produce excellent quality flowers, if well managed, especially in regions with a favorable climate.
-
Cannabinoid content : THC content must remain under 0.5% to comply with the law, while CBD , CBG or CBDV content should be between 6% and 15% to ensure good market results.
-
Aesthetics and organoleptic qualities : The shape, compactness and terpene levels are essential to the quality of the flower. Terpenes influence the smell and taste, factors highly appreciated in the market.
4. Legal Regulation: Law 242/16
In Italy, hemp cultivation is regulated by Law 242/16, which establishes that the seeds used must be included in the Common Catalogue of Agricultural Plant Varieties of the European Union. It is essential that farmers use certified seeds to comply with the law. Furthermore, it is important to keep the documentation related to the purchase of seeds and invoices for any checks.
