The Fastest Autoflowering Marijuana Strains
Within the autoflowering varieties, some strains grow much faster than others. This is what we will discuss in today’s article, which aims to provide a list of the fastest autoflowering marijuana strains.
What is autoflowering or automatic marijuana?
Autoflowering marijuana, also known as automatic, arises from the need of many growers to have strains that are not photodependent and flower by themselves. Photodependent strains depend on the number of hours of sunlight to bloom; when they detect that the daily hours decrease, they begin to produce flowers. Autoflowering strains, however, bloom directly after a certain number of days from germination. Therefore, automatic marijuana allows growers to obtain high-quality harvests in much less time compared to feminized or regular varieties. It can be considered one of the greatest advances the cannabis industry has established. Today, many who have tried them have already become fervent fans of automatic marijuana.
What is speed in a cannabis plant?
The speed of a cannabis plant refers to the time it takes to complete its life cycle, from germination to harvest. This factor is different if we talk about photoperiodic plants, where you can have almost any time of growth, and it is only the flowering time that is determined by genetics. While, on the contrary, automatic plants, grow and flower almost at the same time, so this value refers to the total of their life.
The speed, whether flowering or total, is essential for all growers, both for those who seek to maximize their yields in the shortest possible time, especially in climates where the growing season is short or when growing indoors with controlled light cycles, and for the rest who can plan their harvests.
