Big Bud Auto

Are you looking to produce large, trichome-loaded buds in a fraction of the time it takes to grow photosensitive cannabis strains? Big Bud Automatic feminised is an Indica-dominant hybrid, an easy-to-grow strain for which you can expect large, dense XL buds.

Big Bud is allegedly a descendant of a vigorous Afghan Skunk hybrid from the US. This strain crossed the Atlantic to the promised land of cannabis and coffee shops just before the Reagan administration declared war on drugs in the early 1980s. 

There, the Big Bud clone was further cultivated into a stable cannabis seed strain. Initially, to enhance yield and potency, this clone was pollinated with cannabis varieties with similar traits, resulting in two popular hybrids: Big Bud x Skunk #1 and Big Bud x Northern Lights #1. 

But it wasn't until a clone of the original Afghan parent—a bulky hash plant cultivar—was obtained that it became possible to backcross and stabilize the variety.

Adding a potent Ruderalis into the mix ultimately resulted in the fast-flowering, high-yielding Big Bud automatic seeds we offer for sale today. Afghan and Skunk ancestry characterize this strain's fine genetic mix, ensuring multiple flowering sites with many resinous Indica buds.

Because the plant's vegetation period is so much shorter than that of the regular variety, you will be able to enjoy the pleasantly fruity aroma and flavours in no time!

While the massive, dense dark green buds may steal the show, its powerful psychoactive and therapeutic effects have certainly added to the high demand for this resistant hybrid.

Growing Information

You can grow Big Bud seed strain indoors, outdoors, or in a greenhouse. Because Big Bud Auto is such a resilient strain, she thrives in cooler environments like mountains or polar climates.

The plant's appearance is characterized by its HUGE buds from which Big Bud Automatic derives its name. A few fingers of leaves grow on the upper part of the tall main stem and long side branches, along with several flowering sites. 

Once the plants begin flowering, long dark brown hairs and sparkling flower clusters develop. The solid stem can easily support the weight of the dense dark green buds, which is a must, especially during the later flowering phase.

Since Big Bud's trademark buds grow more densely than most strains, it is advised to tie the branches slightly so that airflow can adequately circulate to prevent mould and bugs. She loves some good-quality nutrients, which will only improve her already heavy flower clusters with super-thick nugs.

After germination, she only requires a brief vegetative stage. After that, Big Bud Automatic flowers for 45 to 50 days. Its giant buds grow denser as the flowering period progresses.

Does it get any better than this? It sure does! Big Bud Auto’s super accelerated growth cycle provides you plenty of time to achieve at least two full harvests during your local growing season. This means you reap twice the amount of this strain’s buds!

Indoors, the plants typically range in height from 90 to 130 cm. However, their modest size does not stop them from yielding a great harvest of mature, resinous Indica buds. Growing Big Bud auto outdoors, average heights of 130 to 150 cm are expected.

This heavy indica strain produces most of its yield on the main stem and upper branches. Indoor, expect an average yield of 300–500 grams per m² from this strain's incredibly dense buds.

Outdoors, a single female plant can harvest up to 120 grams, which is excellent since these autoflowering seeds are feminised, so all your plants are guaranteed to be female.

Characteristics

Big Bud Auto has a THC content of 22%, evident from the potent effects. Like the feminised version, this variety offers a familiar high that impresses even the most seasoned stoner.

Users experience a mild yet present head high combined with a relaxing body buzz, which should be expected of prime-quality buds. The moderate body buzz that relaxes yet leaves you feeling clear enough to continue your daily routine makes it an excellent medicinal strain.

Big Bud Auto features a floral terpene mix complemented by a Skunky, pleasantly fruity aroma with an earthy undertone. The alluring, sweet floral aroma also doesn't disappoint the taste buds: spicy, fruity primary flavours with earthy notes and a hint of Skunk.
