One of the three primary subspecies of the cannabis plant, along with Indica and Sativa. Cannabis Ruderalis is known for its autoflowering traits, meaning it begins to flower based on its age rather than light cycles, unlike Indica and Sativa varieties. Ruderalis plants are typically small, hardy, and grow wild in regions like Eastern Europe, Russia, and Central Asia. Though it contains lower levels of THC, its autoflowering characteristic has made it valuable in breeding autoflowering varieties.
