What’s the Difference Between Feminized and Autoflower Seeds?Updated 5 days ago
Understanding the difference between feminized and autoflower seeds is key to choosing the right strain for your grow. While they sound similar, they refer to two different traits.
🌸 Feminized Seeds
Photoperiod-dependent: They need a change in light cycle (typically 12 hours of darkness) to trigger flowering.
Nearly all seeds produce female plants, which grow buds — no need to identify and remove males.
Great for indoor and outdoor growers who want maximum control over the grow cycle.
⚡ Autoflower Seeds
Flower automatically based on age, not light schedule — usually 3–5 weeks after sprouting.
Ideal for beginners or those with tight schedules or limited light control.
Faster lifecycle, often ready to harvest in 8–11 weeks from seed.
✅ Are Autoflowers Feminized?
Yes — all of our autoflower strains are also feminized.
That means every autoflower seed you buy is designed to produce female, bud-producing plants with no males to worry about.
