RAW Partners With Quebec Cannabis Seeds to Launch 20 New Cannabis Strains in Canada

A major new cannabis seed release is coming to Canada. RAW is partnering with Quebec Cannabis Seeds (QCS) for the Canadian launch of a brand-new cannabis seed collection featuring 20 new strains — 10 feminized cannabis strains and 10 autoflowering strains.

The collaboration brings together the widely recognized RAW name and the Canadian cannabis seed experience of Quebec Cannabis Seeds, creating an exciting new collection for growers looking for fresh genetics.

The initial RAW Cannabis Seeds lineup will consist of:

• 10 new feminized cannabis strains
• 10 new autoflowering cannabis strains
• 20 new RAW cannabis genetics in total

The complete collection will be arriving soon in Canada through Quebec Cannabis Seeds, with individual strain names and specifications to be announced as the official launch approaches.

For Canadian growers, this new partnership represents an opportunity to discover an entirely new collection of RAW-branded cannabis genetics through an established Canadian seed company.

RAW Enters the Cannabis Seed Market

RAW has built one of the most recognizable names within cannabis culture, and its move into cannabis seeds represents an exciting new direction for the brand.

Rather than entering the market with only a few varieties, the upcoming RAW Cannabis Seeds collection will launch with 20 different strains.

That is a substantial first release and demonstrates an intention to provide growers with real variety from the beginning.

The collection has been divided equally between feminized photoperiod genetics and autoflowering genetics, allowing RAW Cannabis Seeds to appeal to growers with very different cultivation preferences.

Growers who enjoy traditional photoperiod plants will be able to explore 10 feminized RAW strains, while those who prefer faster and more convenient autoflower genetics will have 10 RAW autoflower strains to choose from.

RAW Partners With Quebec Cannabis Seeds in Canada

One of the most important parts of the upcoming launch is RAW's partnership with Quebec Cannabis Seeds (QCS).

Quebec Cannabis Seeds has been serving Canadian cannabis growers since 2015, developing and offering cannabis genetics for indoor and outdoor cultivation across Canada.

Through this new partnership, QCS will help introduce the upcoming RAW Cannabis Seeds collection to the Canadian market.

The collaboration brings together two names with deep connections to cannabis culture.

RAW brings a highly recognizable international cannabis brand, while Quebec Cannabis Seeds contributes years of experience working directly with Canadian growers and the Canadian seed market.

For customers in Canada, the partnership will also provide a convenient domestic source for the upcoming RAW seed collection.

20 Brand-New RAW Cannabis Strains Are Coming

The first RAW seed release will contain 20 cannabis strains in total.

Instead of focusing exclusively on one type of cannabis genetics, RAW is launching an evenly divided collection:

10 RAW Feminized Cannabis Strains

The collection will include 10 feminized photoperiod cannabis strains.

Feminized seeds are bred to produce female plants, making them one of the most popular choices among home and experienced cannabis growers.

Photoperiod plants also give indoor growers greater control over the cultivation cycle because flowering can be initiated by changing the lighting schedule.

This gives growers additional time to train plants, develop their canopy, and determine how large their plants become before flowering begins.

The upcoming RAW feminized collection will provide 10 different genetics to explore, with additional strain details expected to be released closer to launch.

10 RAW Autoflower Cannabis Strains

The other half of the collection will consist of 10 RAW autoflowering cannabis strains.

Autoflower cannabis seeds have become extremely popular because of their fast life cycles and straightforward growing characteristics.

Unlike traditional photoperiod cannabis plants, autoflowers begin flowering automatically as they mature rather than depending on a change in the number of hours of light they receive.

This can make autoflowering genetics especially attractive to growers looking for:

• Faster seed-to-harvest cycles
• Easier lighting schedules
• Compact plants
• Indoor growing flexibility
• Outdoor cultivation during shorter growing seasons
• The possibility of multiple outdoor harvests during suitable conditions

By introducing 10 autoflower strains at launch, RAW is giving autoflower enthusiasts a substantial collection of new genetics to discover.

Why Offer Both Feminized and Autoflower Cannabis Seeds?

Every grower has different priorities.

Some prefer the control offered by feminized photoperiod plants. Others prefer the simplicity and speed of autoflowering genetics.

By launching both simultaneously, the RAW Cannabis Seeds collection can accommodate a much wider range of cultivation styles.

Experienced indoor growers may choose feminized genetics because they want to control vegetative development and flowering.

Outdoor growers may select feminized plants when they have a long enough growing season and want larger plants.

Meanwhile, autoflowers may appeal to growers who want quicker harvests, smaller plants, or cannabis genetics that can finish within a shorter outdoor season.

Having 10 strains in each category means growers won't have to choose between RAW genetics and their preferred cultivation method.

RAW Cannabis Seeds for Canadian Growers

Canada has developed a large community of cannabis growers who cultivate plants under very different conditions.

Some growers maintain sophisticated indoor gardens with controlled lighting, temperature, humidity, and nutrients.

Others grow outdoors and depend on genetics capable of adapting to the Canadian climate.

There are also greenhouse growers and smaller home cultivators looking for easy-to-manage varieties.

This diversity is one of the reasons offering both feminized and autoflowering genetics makes sense for the Canadian market.

With the upcoming RAW × Quebec Cannabis Seeds partnership, Canadian growers will have access to 20 additional genetics covering both of these major seed categories.

Quebec Cannabis Seeds Brings Canadian Seed Experience to the Partnership

Quebec Cannabis Seeds has been involved in the Canadian cannabis seed industry since 2015 and has built its business around providing genetics directly to Canadian growers.

That experience provides an important foundation for the RAW Cannabis Seeds launch in Canada.

Canadian growers often have different considerations from growers in warmer climates.

Outdoor flowering times, plant size, season length, and overall finishing speed can all become important when selecting a strain.

Indoor growers, meanwhile, may prioritize flowering time, plant structure, training potential, yield, aroma, and other characteristics.

As individual RAW strain specifications are released, growers will be able to compare these factors and select the genetics that best match their cultivation environment.

What Will the New RAW Cannabis Strains Be Like?

Complete details surrounding the individual strains have not yet been announced.

That means one of the most exciting parts of the upcoming release will be discovering exactly which genetics make up the first RAW Cannabis Seeds collection.

As the launch gets closer, growers should watch for information including:

• Official strain names
• Genetic lineage
• Indica, sativa, and hybrid characteristics
• Feminized or autoflower classification
• Indoor flowering periods
• Autoflower seed-to-harvest times
• Plant height and structure
• Indoor growing suitability
• Outdoor growing suitability
• Aroma profiles
• Flavour characteristics
• Expected indoor yields
• Expected outdoor yields

Once this information becomes available, growers will be able to compare all 20 RAW strains and determine which varieties best suit their preferences.

RAW Feminized Seeds vs. RAW Autoflower Seeds

For growers interested in the upcoming collection, choosing between feminized and autoflowering seeds will largely depend on cultivation goals.

Choose RAW Feminized Seeds If You Want More Control

Feminized photoperiod cannabis seeds can be a good choice for growers who want greater control over plant development.

Because flowering is controlled through the light cycle indoors, growers can determine how long their plants remain in vegetative growth.

This makes feminized varieties particularly suitable for growers using plant-training techniques such as:

• Topping
• Low-stress training
• SCROG
• Super cropping
• Canopy management

Growers can develop their plants before initiating flowering, making photoperiod genetics extremely versatile.

Choose RAW Autoflower Seeds If You Want Speed and Simplicity

RAW autoflower seeds may be a better fit for growers who prioritize a shorter and simpler cultivation cycle.

Autoflowering plants begin flowering according to their biological age, meaning growers do not have to change their lighting schedule to trigger bloom.

This simplifies the process and can significantly shorten the total time between planting a seed and harvesting a mature plant.

For growers with limited space or shorter outdoor seasons, autoflowering genetics can also provide useful advantages.

An Exciting New Cannabis Genetics Partnership

The collaboration between RAW and Quebec Cannabis Seeds represents more than the release of a few individual varieties.

It introduces an entirely new collection of 20 cannabis genetics to the Canadian seed market at once.

With 10 feminized strains and 10 autoflower strains, the first release has been structured to appeal to a broad range of growers.

Whether someone prefers traditional photoperiod cultivation or the speed of modern autoflower genetics, there will be multiple RAW varieties available to explore.
