Dinafem Seed Bank - Where Does the Success Lie
Dinafem Seed Bank officially launched its market presence 8 years ago. However, the beginnings date back a few years earlier. The main motivation for Spanish growers was to achieve the highest quality of their products. In the fall of 2002, they conducted technical research, sought to create feminized seeds, and worked with selected male and female plants. After a year of work, the first success came, and Dinafem introduced the feminized strain Power Kush. From 2005, it became an official company.
They proved to the world that through hard work, they were able to create seeds as good, if not better than, the legendary Dutch seed banks. Dinafem created a catalog with strain names that were previously unknown, such as Moby Dick, Critical+, Blue Widow and others. The company spent 6 years developing, selecting, and improving plant characteristics. At the turn of 2009-2010, Dinafem was internationally consolidated as a seed bank of recognized quality.
Dinafem prides itself on its good reputation, which it has built over a long time. Even seed care is very precise. To ensure only the highest quality seeds reach the market, they are sorted. First, they remove impurities such as unwanted weeds, crushed, cracked, or small seeds. The first cleaning phase is done with a cleaning machine that separates the green part from the seeds, then cleaned manually, and the final phase is sorting by size. Size classification is handled by a computer.
Once the sorting phase is complete, seeds are immediately packaged in large containers where silica gel (used as a moisture absorber) and a color indicator monitoring humidity stability are placed. Silica gel can reduce relative humidity in a closed container to as low as 30%. Filled containers are placed in special refrigerators equipped with a pump that keeps the air dry. To keep seeds stable for a long time, ideal conditions must be created. Ideal conditions are considered to be 6°C temperature and 30% relative humidity. Under such conditions, seeds remain in perfect condition for 2 years.
Dinafem was the first to differentiate itself in seed packaging by placing seeds in small Eppendorf tubes instead of traditional paper bags. This prevents mechanical damage, temperature influence, or external moisture affecting seed stability. In addition to seeds, a small piece of foam is placed in the tubes, separating the seeds from the silica gel.
To summarize, we can say that Dinafem is a company born from the passion of growers eager to learn, explore cannabis culture, and share their acquired knowledge with society. This drives them to continuously improve and positions them among the world's best seed banks. Their aim is not to disappoint their customers.
Their best strains include OG Kush, Blue Hash, Sweet Deep Grapefruit, Shark Attack, Moby Dick, Critical+, White Widow.
