== Flowering type ==
There are two categories that define how cannabis plants enter the flowering stage: Autoflowering plants that "automatically" enter the flowering stage after a period of time, and photo flower plants that enter flowering based on photoperiod. The genetic trait of automatic flowering is made possible by breeding "regular" photoflowering strains with Cannabis Ruderalis.
=== Autoflower ===
Autoflowering plants naturally have a short life span of around 80-90 days, in this time (given good conditions) the plant will go through the cannabis [[Life Stages|life stages]]. Autoflowers don't rely on light schedule to flower so they can be exposed to higher [[Light#DLI .28Daily light Intergral.29|DLIs]]. After harvesting it is not possible to re-vegetate the plant again.
