![]() ![]() ![]() When contemplating the best light cycle for autoflowers remember that the main benefit of autos is their adaptability and speed of growth. Or you can grow/bloom autoflower seeds under 18-24 hours of daily light in the same room that you use for your mother plants/vegetative growth. This allows the grower new liberties and the ability to grow with the light cycle which most suits them.įor example, you can bloom autos under a 12/12 light cycle (12 hours of daily light followed by 12 hours of darkness) if you wish to grow/bloom your autos in the same room that your feminised strains are blooming in. The only real difference between autoflowering genetics and feminised genetics is that the autoflower genetics have been released from the shackles of photo-dependency thanks to some clever breeding by talented geneticists. Those biochemical reactions produce the same terpenes, cannabinoids, leaf material, roots etc whether they happen in plants grown from autoflower seeds or feminised cannabis seeds. Light is the source of energy that powers the plant biochemistry. When considering the optimised light schedule for autoflowers it should be remembered that in many ways the autoflower plant biology is very similar to that of photoperiod feminised strains. So what is the optimised autoflower light cycle? Does one particular autoflower light schedule produce particularly good results? How do the results from an autoflower 24 hour light cycle compare with an autoflower light cycle of 12/12? The life cycle of autoflower cannabis plants You can use the same nutrients and grow systems for your autos as you would use when growing photoperiod feminised strains. Quality levels/cannabinoid levels from the best autos are on a par with the best photoperiod strains. Apart from that, autoflowers grow like normal cannabis, producing the same terpenes and cannabinoids. Or you can bloom autoflower plants outdoors where they will bloom happily irrespective of how many daily light hours are received.Īutoflower plants don’t have a photoperiod dependency that requires daily light to be 12 hours (or less) in order to bloom. You can bloom an autoflower indoors under 12, 18 or 24 hours of daily indoor light. That is the ability of autos to bloom under any light cycle provided by the grower. When growing autoflowering cannabis seeds there is one fundamental difference to ‘traditional’ photoperiod feminised seeds. ![]()
