What Are Photoperiod Seeds?
Photoperiod cannabis seeds require a change in light cycle to trigger flowering. During vegetative growth, they need 18+ hours of light. Switching to 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness initiates flowering.
This gives growers full control over plant size. You decide when to flip to flower based on how large you want your plants.
Photoperiod vs Autoflower
The key differences between photoperiod and autoflower seeds:
- •Veg control: Photoperiod plants can veg as long as you want. Autoflowers veg for a fixed time.
- •Yield potential: Photoperiod plants typically produce larger individual harvests.
- •Cloning: You can take clones from photoperiod plants. Autoflowers cannot be cloned effectively.
- •Complexity: Photoperiod growing requires managing light schedules. Autoflowers are simpler.
Most experienced growers prefer photoperiod seeds for the additional control and yield potential they offer.
