Best Autoflowering Feminized Seeds for Outdoor Growing!

Even More Great Strains

Why grow outdoors?

Outdoor growing can greatly simplify your operation. If you have a safe and discreet location to grow, putting your plants outside allows nature to take care of many of the expensive, time-consuming details for you.

You don’t need to purchase and pay to run a lighting set-up. The sun takes care of that. The breeze manages ventilation and the soil and rain feed and nourish your plants. Depending on your particular location, you may need to supplement your plants’ diets with compost or fertilizer, and you may need to water sometimes. It is important to keep the ground moist during the first week until the seedlings germinate. After that most strains will do fine with a good rainstorm once a week or so.

For detailed information on growing outdoors check out our outdoor grow guide here.

We also have a guerrilla grow guide to help you plan a stealthy outdoor grow, and a description of essential site visits to help you plan out your schedule during the growing season.

Why grow Autoflowering seeds?

Autoflowering varieties have been on the receiving end of a lot of abuse since they first came out. They have the reputation of being unreliable, low yielding and producing poor quality bud. But times have changed! With great breeding from a number of reputable seed banks, Autoflowering strains are now ready to compete with their light-dependent counterparts.

A quick review of autos for those of you who are new to this:

Autoflowering seeds contain Ruderalis genetics which make them flower independently of light conditions. Normal Indica, Sativa and hybrid strains require a decrease in day length to trigger flowering. If you are growing outdoors you have to wait until the natural cycle of changing day length sparks flowering to begin in your plants, and hope that it happens soon enough that they can fully develop before the first frosts.

Ruderalis is a wild strain of marijuana which evolved in the northernmost reaches of Alaska, Europe and Siberia. By the time the day length reaches 12 hours of light/12 hours of darkness in those places, freezing temperatures are mere weeks away. Ruderalis evolved a light-independent method of flowering to give itself time to produce seeds before it was killed by frost. Strains that contain these Ruderalis genetics begin flowering after a set amount of time. Typically this is only 2 weeks or so after they germinate.

The benefits for you:

As a grower, using an Autoflowering strain frees you from lighting changes. You don’t have to set your lights to 12/12, you can leave them at one cycle for all your plants, be they vegging or flowering. For outdoor growers, you can count on a harvest by a set date without worrying about changes in light.

Autos typically produce much faster than regular strains, so you get a harvest sooner. While some strains still have a lower yield than their regular counterparts, the possibility of multiple harvests with less work makes up for this lack.

And let’s not forget, there are many auto strains available with huge yields which can compete with nearly any regular seeds on the market.

Why grow feminized seeds?

Unless you are trying to produce a new strain or improve the plants you have by selective breeding, you do not want seeds in your bud. Producing seeds takes energy away from THC production, resulting in a lower quality, less potent final product.

Typically as plants begin to pre-flower you have to carefully check each one and remove the males, a process which means you lose about 50% of your plants. Feminized seeds have been altered, usually chemically but sometimes by selective breeding, to produce almost entirely female plants.

While eventually you will probably be cloning your favorite mother plant to produce future generations of your favorite strain, at some point you will find yourself eager to try a new variety that you must begin from seed. Feminized seeds can save you a lot of time sexing and give you the most for your money as 99% of your plants should be females.

Be sure to use a reputable breeder when you purchase feminized seeds, as some breeders produce less reliable seeds. For a full description of feminized seeds and a guide to our favorites, check out our Best Feminized Seeds.

The whole package…

For the easiest grow possible, choose a seed that combines all the great features of outdoor, Autoflowering and feminized strains. They are out there! Due to their hardy Ruderalis genetics, many auto strains are already a little tougher than your average plant. They can withstand changes in temperature, humidity and feeding more easily than their purebred sisters.

Growing an auto variety also makes the stealth aspect of outdoor growing easier. These plants typically are very small, often staying under 2 feet in height. This makes them much easier to hide in a container on your apartment balcony or tuck into your flower garden in the back yard. Pay attention to the seed descriptions however, some autos reach over 4 feet in height in the 3 months of their short life!

Combining Autoflowering with feminized seeds and choosing a strain suited for outdoor growing will give you a fast harvest with little input. If you live in a climate with a long growing season, you could plan for multiple harvests by growing autos. In fact, some strains can be grown year round in places where temperatures stay high enough.

What we think about Outdoor Fem Autos?

There are many Autoflowering strains available for purchase these days. Most of them are feminized, so you can count on being able to raise (or nearly all) of your seedlings to maturity. But not all auto strains are the same. Many have low yields, and some perform inconsistently due to poor breeding. Be sure to buy seeds from a reliable breeder and do your research ahead of time. There are auto strains that perform beautifully in humid and damp climates, others that love sunshine, and some that only give high yields indoors.

Choosing an Autoflowering strain that thrives outside will go a long way to making your next grow straightforward and fun. Best of all, you won’t have to wait long to harvest, cure and smoke your new bud!
