What are autoflowering cannabis seeds?

Autoflowering cannabis seeds are a type of seeds that flower automatically, regardless of the light cycle. These seeds contain genes from Cannabis ruderalis, a subspecies native to Russia and nearby regions.

The main characteristics of autoflowering seeds are:

  • Automatic flowering: Unlike photoperiod strains that require a change in the light cycle to induce flowering, autoflowering plants simply go from seed to harvest without any intervention.
  • Fast life cycle: These plants have a much faster life cycle compared to other cannabis strains.
  • Resistance: They are resistant to pests and diseases, and can withstand temperature fluctuations.
    small size: They retain a small size, making them ideal for discreet cultivation.

These features make autoflowering seeds easier to grow and more suitable for beginners. Additionally, they can be harvested several times per season.

How to grow this type of seed?

  • Germination and first weeks: Autoflowering cannabis seeds usually germinate in a couple of days. During the first weeks, it is important to maintain a moist and warm environment for the seedlings.
  • Lighting program: Autoflowering varieties do not need a change in the light cycle to start flowering. Many growers opt for a lighting program of 18 hours of light and 6 hours of darkness throughout the entire crop.
  • Fertilization: Autoflowering plants do not require much fertilization. However, it is important to maintain a soil pH between 6.0 and 6.5 to ensure adequate nutrient absorption.
  • Cultivation Techniques: To maximize yield, you can employ cultivation techniques such as pruning, low stress training (LST), and supercropping.
    Harvest: Autoflowering marijuana usually goes from seed to harvest in about 8-10 weeks. It is important to harvest at the right time to maximize potency and yield.
