AlphaType is a cannabis genetics company that develops F1 hybrid cultivars using a biobank-based, data-driven breeding program rather than traditional selection alone.

Where is AlphaType based?

AlphaType lists operations in Seattle, Washington (USA), Basel (Switzerland) and Bogotá, Colombia.

How does AlphaType develop its genetics?

AlphaType maintains a biobank called Alexandria, with data from over 1,500 coded, open-source cultivars, and applies statistical clustering and cultivar-variance analysis to identify superior candidates for its F1 hybrids.

Are the strains on this page AlphaType's current lineup?

Not necessarily. AlphaType changes its own menu of genetics every year, so some strains QCS carries here may no longer be part of AlphaType's current catalog, even though the seeds remain available from QCS while supplies last.

Does AlphaType publish lab testing or COAs for its genetics?

AlphaType tests every production batch for germination and intersex (hermie) rate and reports the results to QCS batch by batch; QCS publishes them on its seed testing page, and every batch published there passed at 98% or 100% germination, with each strain’s own batch results listed. Cannabinoid and terpene certificates of analysis for these batches are in progress and not yet published, so QCS does not present potency numbers as AlphaType-certified lab results.

Where can I see THC/CBD, flowering time and yield for a strain?

Each product listed on this page shows its own typical genetics, cannabinoid range, flowering time and yield, as reported by QCS based on grow data for that specific strain.

Is AlphaType affiliated with Quebec Cannabis Seeds?

No. QCS is an independent, Quebec-based seed bank. AlphaType is one of the outside genetics sources QCS carries seeds from; it is not owned by or formally affiliated with QCS.

Does QCS choose which genetics AlphaType breeds for this collection?

Yes, for some of the strains here. QCS selects the parent genetics and the traits it wants, and AlphaType carries out the breeding to those specifications, rather than QCS simply reselling whatever is on AlphaType's general public menu.

This page covers cannabis seeds for Texas, a state whose climate runs from the humid Gulf Coast to the deserts and high plains of the west. Home growing is not legal in Texas as of October 2026, so the climate notes are general information only.

Is it legal to grow cannabis in Texas?

As of October 2026, Texas has not legalized adult-use cannabis, and growing it at home is not legal. The state runs a limited medical program, the Texas Compassionate Use Program, which was expanded by HB 46 effective September 1, 2025. That program does not allow patients to grow at home.

Buying cannabis seeds online in Texas: the federal rules

Under the federal law in force today (the 2018 Farm Bill), cannabis seeds with no more than 0.3% delta-9 THC have been treated as hemp, as the DEA said in informal letters in 2022. A new federal hemp definition takes effect on December 11, 2026, unless Congress delays it again, and it excludes viable seeds from plants above 0.3% total THC. Regulators have not yet said how they will apply it to seeds. Once a seed germinates, state law decides whether you may grow it. Read the federal section of our US guide.

Growing season and climate in Texas

If the law changes, most of Texas would offer a very long season, with frost arriving late or rarely near the Gulf and in the far south. The Gulf Coast is hot and humid, with hurricane risk into the fall, while Central Texas and the Hill Country are hot with hard summer droughts. West Texas is arid with strong sun, and the Panhandle high plains are cooler, windier and frost much earlier. For growers in states where it is legal, a climate like this favours sativa-leaning plants that handle heat and long seasons.

These October finishers, two of them sativa or sativa-dominant, match a long, hot season where frost comes late.

Durban Poison – pure sativa, about 18% THC, ready mid-October outdoors
NYC Diesel – bred by QCS, sativa-dominant, up to 24% THC, ready late October outdoors
Quebec Super Skunk – bred by QCS, mostly indica, up to 20% THC, ready in October outdoors

Harvest dates and THC figures are ranges from our strain pages, not promises: results depend on the grower, the method and the season’s weather.
