DFA Autoflowering
Also known as: DFA Auto, DFA Automatic
DFA Autoflowering Strain Overview
DFA Autoflowering is a hybrid cannabis strain developed through selective breeding to combine the desirable traits of its parent genetics with the convenience of autoflowering characteristics. The strain name 'DFA' is believed to be an abbreviation, though its exact meaning varies among different sources and may refer to the breeder's naming convention or specific genetic lineage. As an autoflowering variety, DFA Autoflowering automatically transitions from vegetative growth to flowering based on age rather than light cycle changes, making it particularly suitable for novice growers or those seeking a low-maintenance cultivation experience.
The plant typically exhibits a balanced hybrid structure with moderate height, making it adaptable to both indoor and outdoor growing environments. DFA Autoflowering plants often develop dense, resinous buds with a mix of green and purple hues, sometimes displaying orange pistils. The foliage tends to be medium to dark green with possible purple coloration in cooler temperatures. The strain's autoflowering nature results in a relatively short life cycle from seed to harvest, usually completing its growth within 8-10 weeks.
DFA Autoflowering is noted for its robust growth characteristics and resistance to common cultivation challenges, though specific information about its exact genetic heritage and development history remains somewhat obscure in mainstream cannabis literature. The strain represents the broader trend in cannabis breeding toward autoflowering varieties that maintain desirable cannabinoid and terpene profiles while offering simplified cultivation. Users should note that as with many autoflowering strains, precise genetic information may vary between different seed banks and breeders offering this variety.

DFA Autoflowering Strain Growing Information
DFA Autoflowering is considered a beginner-friendly strain due to its autoflowering nature and generally robust growth characteristics. The flowering time typically ranges from 8-10 weeks from seed to harvest. Plants usually reach a moderate height of 60-100 cm (24-40 inches) when grown indoors, with outdoor plants potentially growing slightly taller under optimal conditions. Expected yields are moderate, with indoor growers typically harvesting 300-450 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants may produce 50-150 grams per plant depending on environmental factors.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it performs particularly well in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be regulated. DFA Autoflowering prefers a temperate climate with consistent temperatures between 20-28°C (68-82°F). As an autoflowering variety, it does not require light cycle changes to initiate flowering, making it suitable for continuous light schedules (18-24 hours of light daily) throughout its growth cycle. Special considerations include avoiding transplanting stress (autoflowers prefer to be started in their final containers) and providing adequate nutrients during the short vegetative period. The strain shows good resistance to common pests and molds, though proper air circulation remains important for optimal bud development.
