Meaning of indoor feminised auto flower seeds

Autoflowering feminized seeds are weed seeds born from plants with autoflowering genetics. At the same time, they are also hormonally modified to produce seeds with only female chromosomes. Specifically, auto-flowering feminized genetics is a hybrid: it is created by crossing feminized plants with cannabis plants of the Ruderalis variety.

The characteristics of these plants are incredibly particular. Here’s what you can expect from a feminised auto flower seeds:

  • It has a 95-99% chance of creating a female plant, precisely because it has only female chromosomes (characteristic of feminized seeds);
  • Plants born from auto flower seeds have a very fast growth rate (they are ready to harvest their buds after only 11 weeks);
  • The flowering stage of autoflowering cannabis does not depend on the seasons and photoperiod, but on the age of the plant. It means that if the plant can grow, it starts to flower automatically (which is the meaning of auto flower seeds), regardless of the season and light conditions. Of course, some conditions favour the development of the plant and the flowers, and the bud yield is best when the plant receives 18 to 24 hours of light per day, but usually, an auto-flowering plant will flower by itself even when these circumstances do not exist;
  • The maturation of the flowers is very fast: the inflorescences of autoflowering cannabis are ready to be harvested no more than 11 weeks after germination of the seed;
  • Auto-flowering plants are generally resistant to low temperatures, adverse weather conditions, pests and mould.

Except for the first, all of these characteristics come from the genetics of Ruderalis, a “wild” and “rough” cannabis variety that adapts well to all conditions.

There is another quality of autoflowering cannabis that makes it perfect for indoor growing: its height, or rather, its weakness! Autoflowering plants reach a maximum height of 1 meter (although the average is around 60 cm) and are therefore ideal for any environment.

An auto-flowering plant is perfect for your living room, or balcony takes up very little space and grows extremely fast.

The yield of autoflowering feminised houseplants

Because of the small size of the plant, the yield is much lower than that of seasonal cannabis. The latter comes from regular seeds or feminized cannabis seeds but not autoflowering: in this case, the plants can reach a height of 4 metres.

But seasonally flowering cannabis is certainly not suitable for indoor cultivation. In any case, auto-flowering plants, thanks to their very rapid growth, can be grown several times a year, so it can be said that this characteristic compensates for the lower yield compared to seasonal plants.

What is the average yield of autoflowering indoor plants?

Usually between 450 and 600 gr/m². In general, it is the XXL auto-flowering plants that reach a yield of 600 gr/m², such as those born from BSF Sig Sour XXL, Gelato XXL and the weed seeds from our Psycho XXL Automix and Dealer Deal XXL Automix kits.

Some practices help to get an excellent yield with these plants.
