Short Flowering Cannabis Strains
There are certain types of cannabis that have a generally fast flowering period or short growing period in general such as Fast Version strains, Moroccan strains, Skunk strains, Afghan strains and autoflowering strains.
Fast Version Strains
There are certain non-autoflowering strains that have Ruderalis genes in them. The combination between autoflowering and photoperiodic plants creates a plant that has a super-fast flowering period but isn’t autoflowering.
This means that strains that are usually harvest around the beginning of October, in their fast version format they could be ready towards mid to end September.
Here’s a list of the strains we recommend:
- Sweet Seeds has their own F1 fast version range which includes: Jack 47 F1 Fast Version, Green Poison F1 Fast Version, Cristal Candy F1 Fast Version and Cream Mandarine F1 Fast Version.
- Royal Queen Seeds also has a Fast Version range of non-autoflowering seeds with Ruderalis genes used to accelerate the flowering period. Some of their best strains are: Speedy Chile Fast Flowering , Candy Kush Express Fast Flowering, Royal Cheese Fast Flowering, and Honey Cream Fast Flowering.
- Delicious Seeds also has their own Early Version range, which includes: Marmalate Early Version, Sugar Black Rose Early Version, Delicious Candy Early Version, and Caramelo Early Version.
Female Seeds also has Ruderalis strains; Critical Sour and Easy Sativa. - Think Fast by Dutch Passion.
- Afghan Kush Early Harvest by World of Seeds
- Sensi Seeds’ classic Regular Ruderalis Indica strains, some of which are autoflowering and some of which are fast version.
Autoflowering Strains
Automatic or autoflowering cannabis strains tend to start their flowering period when they’ve been growing for a few weeks (between the 2nd and 4th weeks) regardless of their life cycle. This allows them to finish up their life cycle in a total of 60 – 100 days from germination. Plus, this also allows you to harvest various times throughout the season; their discreet size allows you to make the most of small balconies or those that aren’t that visible.
Characteristics
- These plants grow regardless of the amount they receive.
- Hey contain Ruderalis genes, a plant that originates in Russia; it doesn’t have much of an effect but it has adapted well to the climate.
- They should be ready two to three months after they sprout their first leaves.
- You can harvest various times a year outdoors.
- Fast indoor harvests.
- Ideal for medicinal consumers that need a fast harvest that isn’t too complicated. Plus, they tend to have medium CBD levels.
- They’re easy to grow due to their short life cycle; they don’t need as much attention as photoperiodic strains.
- These plants are short and discreet, which makes them ideal for balconies and terraces where you can harvest a few times per season.
At La Huerta Grow Shop we have a wide range of autoflowering cannabis seeds.
Skunk Strains
Skunk strains are quite the legend among cannabis consumers; many different strains contain Skunk genes, as it’s one of the most-used strains when it comes to making hybrid cannabis plants.

Some of the best Skunk strains are Critical King from La Huerta Grow Shop’s Private Reserve, a selection of Kritikal Bilbo which is fast and potent, Kritikal Bilbo by Genehtik, or the original Critical mass by Mr Nice SeedBank.
Moroccan Seeds

Some strains are synonymous with Moroccan hash in Dutch Coffee Shops, such as King Hassan, Super Marroc, Ketama Gold, Riffman Hash, Morocco Cream, Extreme Marroc etc. Moroccan cannabis plants are known for being fast-flowering indica plants that are ideal for making your own extracts. Some examples of outdoor Moroccan strains are:

Dutch Strains
The first Dutch seed banks originally worked with strains best designed for indoor growing. However, they have been working on producing strains that are much better suited for indoor growing. They’ve created plants that have adapted to the Dutch climate for outdoor growing.
These plants are a great option if you’re looking for fast growing plants. Here’s a few examples of the best outdoor Dutch strains so you can keep them in mind:
- Purple 1 by Dutch Passion: this is a purple hybrid that’s ideal for smoking during the day.
- Shaman by Dutch passion is one of their must beautiful plants. Some of them can go a beautiful purple colour and produce deep green leaves. It’s easy to grow, producing a happy and stimulating effect.

Afghan Strains
The Hindu Kush region falls within part of Afghanistan and part of Pakistan. This region has a lot of cannabis culture, where Charas hash is traditionally made by hand.
