Discover Autoflowering Seeds from Eva Seeds!

Autoflowering seeds are an innovation that has revolutionised the world of home-grown cannabis for many consumers. These seeds offer an alternative for anyone seeking easy-to-grow plants and quick harvests, regardless of light conditions and are perfect for small spaces.

Here, we'll explain what exactly autoflowering or automatic seeds are and in which cases we recommend planting these types of seeds as opposed to their  feminised photodependent counterparts.

What are Autoflowering Seeds?

The main feature of these seeds is that they do NOT depend on light cycles to start flowering. Rather than waiting to mature and having light hours decrease to start the flowering period, these plants start flowering automatically from 2-4 weeks after germination, hence their name.

Autoflowering vs. Photodependent

Each cultivator makes the final decision on how to grow based on their needs, tastes, and other factors. Here are some tips based on our experience.

Indoor Growing

For those seeking a quick harvest in indoor cultivation, we recommend fast-flowering feminised photodependent strains, like Jamaican Dream, Gorilla Candy or Lemon King. These varieties offer short flowering times, better stability and often a higher yield.

Of course, you could grow autoflowering plants in any indoor setting with good results, but fast-flowering photodependent plants offer certain advantages.

Indoor Growing in Reduced Space

Autoflowering seeds are especially good for indoor cultivation with limited space. Their compact size and their life cycle of around 10-12 weeks make them perfect for growers with small home crops.

Outdoor Growing

Outdoors, autoflowering seeds offer the advantage of being harvestable multiple times during the year since they are not tied to the photoperiod to complete their cycle. This makes them an excellent option for those who want to harvest several times during the growing season and experiment with different strains.

Feminised photodependent plants reach a much larger size due to their later growth or flowering cycle. They do not start flowering between the 2nd-4th week of growth.- resulting in higher yield.- Autoflowering plants, on the other hand, are harvested approx. 2.5/3 months after germination.

Balconies and Places with Light Contamination

Autoflowering seeds are perfect for balconies or areas with light contamination. Their ability to flower independently of the light cycle makes them perfect for urban environments where lighting can be irregular.

Photodependent feminised seeds, on the other hand, cannot flower properly in a place where light pollution is present, produced for example by streetlamp.
