Autoflowering strains from Ruderalis genetics changed the game. These fast, compact cannabis varieties flower with age, not light. Growers love them for their speed, size, and simplicity. Whether you’re new to growing or just want a quicker harvest, autoflowers are the way to go.
Before autoflowers, timing your grow meant flipping lights and tracking cycles. That’s fine for experienced growers. But for beginners or those short on space? Not ideal. Ruderalis brought in autoflowering traits that don’t rely on light. As a result, plants flower on their own, usually within 2–4 weeks of sprouting.
This makes them perfect for stealth grows, outdoor setups, and tight timelines. They’re tough, too—ideal for harsh climates and fast harvests.
The original autoflower strain. Bred by The Joint Doctor, Lowryder set the standard. It stays short and flowers fast. Not the strongest, but great for micro grows and early harvests.
This strain brings the fire. It’s potent, high in THC, and finishes in about 10 weeks. Expect frosty buds, earthy cookie flavor, and serious power. Great indoors or out.
Sticky, stinky, and strong. This Mephisto creation delivers loud terps and a balanced hybrid buzz. Ideal for growers who want both taste and strength without long waits.
Another Joint Doctor classic. This one is an autoflowering AK-47 cross. It’s easy to grow, reliable, and packs a cerebral punch. Harvest-ready in under 70 days.
A twist on White Widow. This auto version keeps the frost and boosts the speed. Expect calming effects and a sweet, spicy taste. Also a looker—those trichomes shine bright.
One of Royal Queen Seeds’ fastest strains. Finishes in 8–9 weeks. It’s mellow, smooth, and super low-maintenance. Perfect for first-timers or quick outdoor harvests.
Built for yield and strength. This Dutch Passion strain gives big returns for an autoflower. It’s earthy, resilient, and beginner-proof. One of the best autos for outdoor grows.
Start with your goals. Want a fast harvest? Go with Quick One or Easy Ryder. Need flavor and power? Try Sour Stomper or Gorilla Cookies. Growing outdoors in a tough climate? Auto Mazar won’t quit.
Not all autos are created equal. Some lean sativa, some indica. Check flowering times and THC content. Also, buy from trusted seed banks. Good genetics make all the difference.
