"If you have 4 grow seasons per year ( 3 months) and each female plant produces 100 seeds with 50 females.... how long does it take before you have 1 Billion Cannabis plants?"
50 females producing 100 seeds each = 5,000 per grow
5,000 seeds X 4 grows per year = 20,000 seeds per year
20,000 seeds X 50,000 years = 1,000,000,000 seeds
Rebecca is correct.
Nope.
You are forgetting that the 1st set of seeds after 3 months also grow 50 seeds in 3 months...
The Growth formula is Exponential.... it’s like compounding interest... seeds upon seeds upon seeds.
It adds up very fast.
You have one statement
"If you start with 1 male cannabis plant and 1 female Cannabis plant and allow them to have sex you create 100 new seeds from that single plant."
and one question.
"If you have 4 grow seasons per year ( 3 months) and each female plant produces 100 seeds with 50 females.... how long does it take before you have 1 Billion Cannabis plants?"
She answered the question correctly. It adds up to 50,000 years if you follow the question as stated.
Yeah... i should say that you continue to let the males and females have sex.
