Flowering Time Sativa Vs Indica Nugs
This is why indica heavy varieties are particularly suitable if you want to harvest quickly or are late with an outdoor.
Flowering time sativa vs indica nugs. Sativa up to 20 ft. Indica 8 to 12 weeks. The flowering phase usually lasts 6 to 9 weeks.
Indica takes a lot less time to produce buds than other species of cannabis. Unlike indica sativa cannabis plants have slightly fewer flowers that can be really huge. Your indica is expected to have lower thc and stronger cbd content.
Shorter flowering periods equals faster plant growth which is something you would like to experience when growing marijuana. You will expect photoperiodic strains unless you will be mixing its genetics with cannabis ruderalis to produce an auto flowering hybrid. Sativa 10 to 16 weeks.
The buds are dense compact smaller looking than your sativa bud. Basically the harvest of cannabis sativa is smaller than that of indica which is why growers who grow cannabis commercially mostly choose one of the countless indica strains. I used the higher yield size from each in the graphic.
Your indica buds leaf is broad and dark coming from a wide squat plant that grows two to six feet tall. Once flowering is complete it s time to harvest and cure. Your flowering time is only six to eight weeks and your yield is higher compared to sativa yield.
The size of the plant obviously plays a big role in accounting for the size of the harvest.
