Plant Gendering Services
Early Plant Sexing Drives Efficiency, Optimizes Resource Allocation and Saves Money
Optimize your time and resources with Veracell Labs' reliable plant gendering service. Using advanced qPCR technology, we detect male-specific DNA markers in Cannabis sativa at the seedling stage—long before visual traits appear. This allows you to remove unwanted males early, conserve space, and maximize your yield potential.
Early sexing is vital:
You want to save time and operate efficiently.
You’re growing from regular seeds (not feminized).
You have limited grow space (e.g., indoor, vertical, or micro-grows).
You're dealing with expensive genetics.
You want to maximize ROI per square foot.
To reduce labor and costs by identifying plant sex before flowering begins.
~$30
Cost to grow one plant for 6 weeks
The cost of growing a cannabis plant for six weeks or until sex traits are expressed Additionally, utilities such as electricity and water can contribute to operational costs. Labor also plays a crucial role, as skilled technicians are often required to monitor and maintain optimal growing conditions. Overall, a rough estimate could range from several hundred to several thousand dollars, depending on the sophistication and size of the laboratory environment.

Pathogen and Microbial Analysis
Pathogen detection empowers you to stop disease early, ensuring healthy plants and more successful harvests every time
Veracell Labs can identify microbial threats before they cause visible symptoms and damage so growers can take proactive measures to protect their crops. Early detection allows for targeted interventions that minimize plant stress, reduce the spread of disease, and preserve overall plant vitality. Pathogen detection isn't just about testing — it's a tool for smarter, more resilient cultivation.
20%-30%
Loss of yield from infected plants
Infected plants can suffer significant losses, with yields dropping by 30%. Beyond just reduced quantity, infections also negatively affect the plant’s chemical profile, often leading to decreased THC/CBD content and overall potency. This not only impacts the economic value of the harvest but can also compromise product quality, making early pathogen detection crucial for maintaining both yield and cannabinoid integrity.
100+
Number of known pathogens
Cannabis and hemp plants are vulnerable to more than 100 known pathogens, including fungi, bacteria, viruses, and oomycetes. These microorganisms can cause a wide range of issues—from root rot and powdery mildew to leaf spot and bud rot—each threatening plant health and crop viability. Veracell Labs understands the diversity of these pathogens, effective monitoring and early intervention; helping growers protect their investment and ensure healthy, productive plants.
