The Evolution of Autoflowers. From Ruderalis to Modern Powerhouse Strains | Grow Guides Ep. 87

In this week’s Grow Guides, episode 87, we take a deep dive into the evolution of autoflowering cannabis plants! From its some what "humble" beginnings to the high-quality genetics we see today. We start with ruderalis and the origins of autoflowers, explaining how this unique subspecies made automatic flowering possible in the first place. Then we move into the early days of auto breeding, including the Lowryder era, where the first true autoflower strains began to emerge. From there, we explore the turning point in autoflower breeding, when dedicated breeders began refining genetics, improving quality, and changing how growers viewed autos altogether. We also cover modern must-try autoflower strains, highlighting how far things have come in terms of potency, flavour, yield, and overall performance. Finally, we tackle the big question: are autoflowers now as good as photoperiods? We break down the pros, cons, and where autos truly stand in today’s growing scene. A great episode for anyone curious about autoflowers, whether you’ve avoided them in the past or are already a fan of these fast-evolving genetics. 🌐 Website: https://highonhomegrown.com💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/sqYGkF4xyQ📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/highonhomegrown
