Sativa type cannabis strains originate from warmer climates in Asia and South and Central America. These plants are acclimated to high temperatures, they often have higher tolerance or resistance to mold pathogens, and humidity. Sativa plants typically grow quite tall and have a narrow growth habit. The leaves and flowers match this shape with long, airy, thin leaves and buds. This plant architecture allows for airflow movement through the plant and is part of what helps the plants resist mold development on tighter internal structures.

Indica cannabis strains originate from cooler, high altitude mountainous regions of Asia and the Middle East. These plants adapted to grow and reproduce quickly in climates with a short warm season. For this reason, indica plants grow on the smaller side and remain compact as they develop. Indica plants produce large leaves that are wide and stout in shape. Flowers grow in thick and dense on these plants, which creates a beautiful bud but also an optimal environment for pests and molds.

Hybrids that are a pairing of sativa and indica plants, a good hybridized strain can produce even stronger and more resilient plants than a completely indica or sativa strain. As a combination of the different types of cannabis, these hybrid plants can represent the best qualities of both indica and sativa. With their increased vigor and acclimation to a wider range of climates, hybrids are the most common cannabis varieties available today. They are often considered indica-dominant or sativa-dominant depending on the genetic lineage.

Photoperiodic strains are the most common type of cannabis plant. These plants begin to flower based on day length in outdoor grows and light schedules in indoor grows. Longer periods of light availability are required for the plant to continue vegetative development, more than 14 hours of uninterrupted light per day. Once daylight hours shorten below 14 hours or the light cycle is reduced to the recommended 12 hours, plants will begin flower development. Photoperiodic plants offer some flexibility as flowering can be initiated at a chosen time after at least 4 to 6 weeks of vegetative growth, but they can remain in this stage much longer if needed. The plants may then begin to flower at the selected time, and require 7 to 10 weeks to develop fully mature buds. All of our photoperiodic strains are available as feminized seed.

Autoflower plants are pre-programmed to flower a certain amount of time after germination, this typically occurs after 2 to 4 weeks of vegetative growth. The plant automatically begins to develop flowers without any change in day length for outdoor grows or light cycle for indoor grows. This is a contrast to most cannabis plants which are photoperiodic and depend on day length or light cycle to determine when flowering begins. Because of this pre-defined programming, autoflower plants grow a little bit differently. Autoflowers tend to be small and compact plants that develop quickly over a short period of time. They require less water and nutrient additives as the plant and root systems are much smaller, and have the potential to produce multiple harvests in one growing season. All of our autoflower strains are available as feminized seed.
