Seedbank Review: Pyramid Seeds

Pyramid Seeds

The Spanish cannabis seed bank Pyramid Seeds was founded in 2007 and has been offering very high quality marijuana genetics for several years now. In the beginning, the seed bank only offered 8 feminised strains. Over the years, through growing success and with increased experience, this has now become over 40 cannabis strains. These are feminised strains that are either photoperiod or autoflowering. Pyramid Seeds has also included some CBD-rich strains in its catalogue for some time.

What started small has become a cannabis seed bank that now sells seeds in over 20 countries around the world. Pyramid's breeders are professional and experienced growers who come from different backgrounds and have different experiences. The founders had a special fondness for Egyptian culture and therefore, especially in the past, named some of their strains after pharaohs such as Rames, Tuankhamon or Nefertiti.

Pyramid Seeds produces and packs its seeds with intensive quality controls. All seeds are hand-packed and manually selected to ensure a high germination rate of over 97%. The seeds are visibly sealed in a tube and integrated into the pack. Once opened, the pack cannot be reused. If there are any seeds left over, you will have to put them in another suitable container. The seed bank offers packs of 3+1 or 5+ 2 seeds.

When breeding, Pyramid's breeders focused on developing seeds that are easy to grow and produce vigorous and easy-to-care-for plants. The breeders also aim for high productivity, genetic stability, rich flavours and positive growth characteristics. The seed bank is of interest to many home growers as well as professional growers and is highly regarded for its quality. Pyramid's breeders use only the best and long-selected plants for their breeding work: e.g. classics like White Widow or Black Domina, but also rare landraces. In the process, new hybrids are created again and again, which, after strict control, are only put on the market if they meet the high requirements.

Each feminised photoperiod or autoflowering strain is the result of a long and elaborate process involving numerous tests over several generations. A team of cannabis experts finally selects which cannabis varieties to include in the assortment. Criteria here are yield, aroma, potency and growth characteristics. The seed bank convinces with quality and keeps prices low at the same time.

For indoor growing, the seed bank recommends a 600W NDL or a comparable LED for 120 x 120 cm to achieve the mentioned results. For Pyramid Seeds and its breeders, breeding has always been the main focus and there is not always enough time to participate in cups. Despite fewer Cup wins, the quality of their genetics is no less high. The seed bank has released some of the best feminised and autoflowering cannabis strains Spain has to offer. Some of Pyramid's strains reach very high THC levels e.g. Tutankhamon with an average THC content of 25% or Wembley with an average THC content of 21%.
