"The garden suggests there might be a place where we can meet nature halfway." ~Michael Pollan What’s So Special About Auto-flowering Cannabis Strains? Have you ever heard of “autoflowering” strains of cannabis? How are they different from traditional (photoperiod) marijuana strains, and what makes them easier to grow for beginners? Get the answers in today’s beginner autoflowering tutorial! Here are several different
autoflowering strains growing together. Learn today why autos are great for beginners! Why Auto-Flowering Cannabis Plants Are Great for Beginners- Automatically start making buds - This is why they're called "auto-flowering" strains. Traditional photoperiod strains grown indoors need to be manually forced to start making buds by altering light periods to give long nights (why they're called "photoperiod" strains).
- Autoflowering plants stay a manageable size - Most auto-flowering cannabis strains stay under hip height and will not grow into huge monsters. They typically won't take over a closet or become taller than your fence. Although some auto-flowering strains can get
pretty big, they are typically labeled as such by the breeder.
- Ready to harvest in 3 months or less - While traditional indoor grows take 3-5 months from seed to harvest on average (learn about cannabis growing timelines), auto-flowering plants are typically ready to harvest in 3 months or less from when they
first sprout. A lot of growers prefer a quicker harvest.
- Can be grown outdoors in most climates - Traditional photoperiod outdoor cannabis plants must be planted in the Spring, and are ready to harvest in the Fall. This makes it hard to grow outdoors in a lot of climates. But as long as your climate gets at least 2-3 months of warm, sunny weather at a time, you should be able to grow an auto-flowering plant outside. This lets you grow outdoors in a short but sunny
summer, during warm winter months, or to get an early outdoor harvest.
- Not sensitive to light leaks or light periods - If light accidentally leaks into the grow space of a photoperiod plant, it can cause big problems. This kind of light stress can interrupt bud development or even cause female
plants to make unwanted "male" flowers. Outdoors, photoperiod plants are sensitive to the time of year, and their internal cycles can be disrupted by security spotlights, street lights or even the light from a nearby window. Since auto-flowering plants are mostly unaffected by light periods or light leaks, a beginner grower has one less
thing to worry about.
- Feminized auto-flowering seeds always make buds - Speaking of male vs female plants, when it comes to auto-flowering strains you typically don't need to worry about sex. In fact, you would specifically need to seek out seeds that will produce male flowers because just about all auto-flowering seeds available online are feminized. If you buy feminized auto-flowering seeds, you are basically guaranteed to get a "female" plant. That means that every plant will produce buds and you don't have to
worry about male plants, seeds or pollination.
A bunch of autoflowering plants in a mini grow tent (view the tutorial on how to copy this grow style) Did you know? Half of all traditional non-feminized seeds (the kind of seeds you typically find in your bud) grow into male plants that must be removed from the grow room as soon as you spot them. Growing with feminized seeds prevents that potential headache! Auto-Flowering Frisian Dew by Dutch Passion produces incredibly vibrant purple buds under the right conditions, and tends to grow well outdoors. Best Outdoor Autoflowering Cannabis Strains (2024 Edition)Summer is coming, which means outdoor cannabis growing season is about to begin. Have you considered growing auto-flowering strains outside this year? Auto-flowering strains
have astounded the world with their fast and easy growth, and they also offer some major benefits for outdoor marijuana growers compared to typical photoperiod strains. Auto-flowering strains give cannabis growers a lot more choices and flexibility. You can achieve multiple harvests in one grow season. You can time your harvest so buds form and ripen during the summer, when light levels are very high, causing buds to get bigger and be more potent than if they’d matured in the
fall (like with photoperiod strains). If your climate has a short summers or a lot of rain during fall, auto-flowering strains allow you to grow your plants when environmental conditions are still ideal. Check out this Night Queen Auto by my
friend LuckyAcres. Late summer harvests help make big, potent buds. Benefits of Auto-Flowering Strains for Outdoor Cannabis Growers - Faster harvest – Auto-flowering cannabis plants are ready to harvest faster than photoperiod strains, especially outdoors. Photoperiod plants are ready to harvest in mid-to-late fall (the exact timing depends on the genetics and your latitude), no matter what time you put them outside. If you put
photoperiod plants outside in the spring, they won’t be ready until the fall, which can take 5+ months. On the flip side, most autoflowering strains are ready to harvest just 2-3 months from germination, no matter the time of year.
- Multiple harvests per grow season – Auto-flowering strains are great for getting the most from your sunny season, no matter where you live. While you can only ever have one photoperiod harvest per season, you can produce two or even three full
autoflowering harvests.
- Control harvest time – Gain the ability to ensure buds ripen when the weather is still ideal. No need to worry about short summers or your rainy season starting early and messing up your cannabis harvest. As long as you have a few months of good weather, you can grow autoflowering plants outdoors. As a bonus, when buds ripen in the summer, the extra light and UV rays means buds tend to get bigger and more potent than if they ripened in the
fall.
- Great yields – As long as autoflowering plants get a strong start, good soil, and plenty of warm sunny days, they tend to be extremely productive as far as yields and potency when grown outdoors. Many autoflowering cannabis strains are specifically developed to thrive in an outdoor environment.
