Autoflowering cannabis seeds

What are autoflowering varieties?

Autoflowering varieties present a characteristic that may be one that best identifies it as there is no need for a light-dark cycle to bloom, meaning that once it has germinated the cannabis plant begins to bloom regardless of the hours of light during cultivation, this is an incredible advantage if you plan to grow.

Cannabis Ruderalis

We must go back to the genetic origin of these seeds that come from cold areas of Eastern Europe, such as Russia, Central Europe and Central Asia, which is the birthplace of Cannabis Rudelaris. The Ruderalis does not depend on the cycles of light to bloom, unlike with the Indica and Sativa varieties that need the warm summers of the Indian sub-continent and the equatorial and tropical zones to have more light to initiate flowering.

Flowering time also plays a very important role, given the extrem cold climate the flowering needs to start as soon as possible, approximately 3 weeks and reach maturity in about 70-90 days.

It is important to note that Rudelaris plants have a minumum THC content with a high CBD content the non-psychoactive components present in cannabis or therapeutic medicine. Another incredible advantage is that you can grow and obtain a coiled plant in a very short period of time.

The Autoflowering revolution

This opened a huge range of possibilities. Breeders continued to research and experiment to obtain the best qualities of the seeds and crossed the Sativa and Indica seeds that they liked the most with Ruderalis, the objective being to take advantage of the best of both seeds, in other words the Ruderalis's capacity of "autoflowering" mixed with the flavors, aromas and larger size of its buds provided by the Indica or Sativa.

In general, the autoflowering plant is low in height not usually exceeding one meter in height, which means it is quite discreet and can be camouflaged more easily, depending on the cross, it can reach a little more in height and obtain also some larger buds. Because of the short flowering period they are quite free of pests, fungi, bugs. Its cultivation is simple which is another advantage for inexperienced growers, and as its growth period is so fast that it does not need fertilizer, it will only be paid during the flowering period.
