Editorial Standards
Last updated:
Every strain description on The Seeds Depot is reviewed by a named human before publication. This page documents who reviews what, where the information comes from, how we handle errors, and the legal context around the cannabis-seed content we publish.
Who reviews our content
- •Will Maluk — Lead Cultivator & Editorial Reviewer.
Reviews every strain description on The Seeds Depot for accuracy and grow viability.
Sourcing rules
Strain descriptions are built from the following inputs, in order of preference:
- Breeder genetics records — the original parent-strain and lineage data published by the breeder of record.
- Independent grower reports — flowering windows, difficulty ratings, and yield ranges cross-checked against grower journals (Reddit r/microgrowery, GrowDiaries, ILGM forum, Leafly grower reviews).
- Lab analyses — THC/CBD content ranges sourced from published cannabinoid testing where available; ranges are presented as ranges, not single fabricated values.
We do not republish breeder marketing copy verbatim. THC ranges are never written as a single “up to” number unless that number is sourced.
AI usage disclosure
Some of our long-form strain summaries are drafted with AI assistance. Every AI-drafted page is read end-to-end and edited for accuracy by the named reviewer above before it is published. We do not publish AI-generated content without human review of the factual claims.
Corrections policy
If a strain description on this site contains a factual error, contact our editorial team with the URL and the correction. We update the page in place, refresh the “Last reviewed” date stamped on the page, and (for substantive errors that affected published claims) record the change in a corrections note at the bottom of the affected page.
Affiliate relationships
The Seeds Depot earns a commission when readers buy seeds through outbound links to merchant partners. The presence of an affiliate link does not influence which strains we cover, the contents of strain descriptions, or our reviewer’s assessment of grow viability. We cover strains because they exist in the market, not because a partner is paying us to feature them.
Cannabis legal context
Cannabis remains a Schedule I controlled substance under United States federal law. Cannabis seeds are sold by our merchant partners as adult novelty souvenirs and genetic preservation collectibles in jurisdictions where germination is permitted under state law. Customers are responsible for confirming local, state, and federal law before purchase or germination. Seeds in their ungerminated form contain 0% THC.
Nothing on this site constitutes medical, legal, or growing advice for any specific situation. Cannabis cultivation laws vary by state and change frequently — consult your state’s most recent statutes before planting.
Last-reviewed dates
Every strain page carries a “Last reviewed” date in the byline. That date reflects the most recent time the named reviewer signed off on the page contents — not just a database timestamp. Pages older than 18 months without a fresh review are queued for re-verification before they continue to rank in our internal search.
