A new version of the classic. The old classic strain now improved and in auto version!
Just like the name suggests. Expect up to 500gr/m2 of super big buds.
Ideal for beginners. Top-quality buds without much maintenance or extra effort.
Indica-dominant hybrid. A relaxing high that comes hand-in-hand with a pleasant head buzz.This is a fast-growing and high-yielding variety that can produce up to 500gr/m2 in 63 days while growing up to 120cm, despite the large size it’s super easy to take care of and doesn’t require much maintenance other than basic feeding. This strain is probably one of the best for first-time growers without experience that want an easy-to-grow strain without sacrificing yields and quality. You can expect lots and lots of dense dark-green buds that exhale a pleasant fruity, sweet and floral aroma with a strong piney and earthy background.
Bud description
Big Bud Auto delivers exactly what it was bred to do; Expect large-sized dense and super thick nugs, typical of Indica-dominant strains, with long dark-brown hairs coming out of all the swollen yet small calyxes. This variety exhibits a good calyx to leaf ratio, meaning that the buds will stay big after trimming and almost all of the trichomes develop on the nugs; An exceptional strain for beginner growers who want to harvest premium buds without much maintenance or any extra effort.
Smoke report
After a couple of hits, you’ll experience a familiar high that’ll take you back to the ’90s. This variety offers a light yet present head high combined with a moderate body buzz that completely relaxes your body and relieves muscle pain. A perfect effect for those looking to chill on the couch while watching tv, the relaxing effect will have you feeling like you’re laying on a cloud while you kick back and unwind, just remember that this is an Indica-dominant hybrid so make sure you smoke it with caution because smoking in excess will definitely leave you couch-locked and put you to sleep.
Plant appearance
Thanks to the fine genetic mix, this strain won’t be afraid of showing its hybrid vigour and can produce up to 500gr/m2 of prime-quality buds; This large-sized variety grows really sturdy, with a solid stem and side branching that give this strain a stocky appearance while still reaching up to 120cm. The tall main stem and long side branches grow multiple flowering sites on the upper part with not too many small fan leaves with a few fingers.
Grow tips
This is a resistant hybrid that doesn't need extra attention to thrive, just make sure you give it good-quality nutrients in the correct amounts and you will get excellent results either outdoors or indoors. Due to the Indica genes, the buds grow denser than usual so it’s essential you tie the branches slightly so there is enough airflow in between the buds to prevent mould and bugs. This variety doesn’t require a lot of maintenance or anything extra but remember to feed her properly and with good-quality nutrients, this way you guarantee the buds fatten up properly and that your plant doesn’t suffer any kind of nutrient deficiencies.
Flavour
You’ll experience a flavour that’s very similar to its aroma but in more detail. This strain offers a pleasant sweet, fruity, and floral terpene mix with a hint of skunk mix that will take over your taste buds on the inhale and, as you exhale, will gradually reveal a more piney and earthy background with the sweet, floral and fruity main flavours still strongly present.
