Autoflowering Seeds

Autoflower Cannabis Seeds

Autoflower Cannabis Seeds are quite in demand among the cannabis growers primarily because these seeds are simple to grow, takes as little as 6-8 weeks to bud, and get flowering automatically on their own.

No Need for light adjustments!

Unlike customary cannabis seeds, cannabis growers do not need to bother about changing the light schedule to trigger and maintain the flowering stage. Or, in other words, the flowers can be cultivated during the whole year without being concerned about light periods. Perfect for indoor grows!

Autoflower Cannabis strains are obtained by crossing Sativa or Indica plants with Ruderalis, hence combining the best traits of cannabis subspecies and changing marijuana production. Furthermore, these auto-flowering feminized seeds are specifically bred to provide female plants only, thereby preventing male plants from fertilizing the female plants and hence reducing their yield.

In 1SEEDS, you may obtain Autoflower Cannabis Seeds of the highest quality that gives compact plants and are ideal for indoor growing or growing in a limited area.

  • They are easy to cultivate and experiment with for varied experiences.
  • They require less maintenance as compared to conventional cannabis plants.
  • These plants are resilient to climate and temperature fluctuations, pests, etc.
  • There is no need to worry about changing the light cycles as they start flowering automatically after 4-6 weeks of growing.
  • These plants are suitable for indoor and small-scale cultivation as they are smaller in size compared to their counterparts.
  • They can be harvested quicker as compared to regular cannabis plants and produce ample yield.

How To Germinate Your Autoflower Cannabis Seeds

PLEASE follow these 3 simple steps for best results: 

  1. Empty your cannabis seed from the capsule you received in a cup of purified room temperature water. Don’t worry if it sinks or floats.
  2. Place container in a dark warm place (like a kitchen cabinet) for 24-48 hours, but no longer! You do NOT want a long and very delicate tap root to be growing at this stage-
  3. After the 24-48 hours- gently scoop out the seed with a spoon and place/cover in 1/2” deep in good potting soil or preferably in a soaked Jiffy pellet/peat pellet (buy Jiffy pellets from Amazon or local hardware/garden store).

* Keep the soil/pellet moist (not soaked) and warm under your grow lights

* Seedling should sprout within 3-10 days depending on strain

*After the little seedling has grown to around 3″ tall- transfer him to his new home and enjoy the ride!*

Side Note: Some suggest germinating cannabis seeds using a wet paper towel on a plate/tweezer method. We find that this method is not the best for cannabis seeds because paper towels dry out quickly and getting the germinating seeds out of the paper towel can be clumsy damaging the seedling. Using tweezers can be dangerous as soaked seeds are much more fragile. We like to play it safe and germinate cannabis seeds using purified water and jiffy pellets which are specifically designed to easily germinate seeds.

The Perfect Humidity and Temperature for Your Seeds

In the wild, cannabis ruderalis plants generally do well in regions with hot summers and little precipitation. As seen, cannabis plants do not like high humidity, so when you are cultivating auto-flowering plants, as an example, it is important to maintain the right humidity so that your plants can grow and bloom well.

The auto-flowering cannabis plants should have a relative humidity of around 40% – 70% through the pre-flowering stage. Upon the opening of the buds, humidity is supposed to be regulated and maintained under 50%.

Besides, the optimal temperature is 70-85 degrees Fahrenheit, which supports plants to form thick stems, bushy foliage, and lots of flowers.

Controlling the correct temperature and humidity in your auto-flowering cannabis garden is very important, as cold and heat stresses can stress the plant and stunt its growth. In addition, plants do not grow well at humidity levels above 90% and they suffer from mold and other infections.

FAQs

1- How to grow autoflowering seeds?

Auto-flowering plants can be grown both indoors and outdoors, with the only prerequisite being maintaining the ideal temperature (70-85 degrees Fahrenheit) and humidity levels (40-70%). These plants are very compact and can be easily grown in medium–sized containers. Soil with a pH of 5.5 to 6.5 is ideal for keeping your plant happy and thriving all year round. 

Next, try placing your container in an area that gets 8 hours of sunlight per day, and water the plant only when the top layer of the soil is parched to avoid water-logging and rotting of roots.

Lastly, harvest gradually, collect only the topmost buds, and allow the rest to grow properly. This way you can plan things properly and harvest all year round!

2- How long does it take for autoflowering seeds to mature?

The time needed for autoflowering seeds to mature typically depends on the specific phenotype and environmental conditions. But, generally speaking, the time needed for auto-flowering seeds to grow and reach harvest is approximately 75 days.
