There are many differences when it comes to Auto-Flower and Phototype cannabis plants . The reason we have choosen to use Auto-flower strains when making Cannacubes is simply the time. Taking only 10-14 weeks from seed to juice instead of the 6-8 months with phototype, allows me to grow in 3 month cycles and have fresh Cannacubes all year.
