Santa Maria Auto is a compact indica that surprises with its uplifting kick, sweet earthy aroma, and ultra-easy growing style. Low effort in the grow tent, big smiles on the sofa.
Santa Maria Auto isn’t the loudest strain in the lineup, but that’s exactly why growers keep coming back to it. Subtlety is its secret weapon. It’s compact, productive, and surprisingly generous for such a chill little autoflower. Expect uplifting highs, sweet fruit-forward aromas, and that classic earthy undertone that whispers "old-school" with every hit.
And the real kicker? It’s stupidly easy to grow. Whether you’re working with a grow tent, a sunny balcony, or a quiet corner of the garden, Santa Maria Auto does her thing without fuss. She's low-maintenance, fast-flowering, and beginner-friendly, with results that even experienced growers respect.
Santa Maria Auto descends from the legendary Santa Maria strain, a Brazilian landrace known for its spiritual energy and unique cerebral buzz. That lineage gives her a slightly exotic edge. The addition of Ruderalis brings speed, resilience, and automatic flowering to the table. The result is a compact indica-dominant auto with jungle roots and modern sensibility.
Don’t let the modest THC level fool you. Santa Maria Auto delivers a well-rounded, feel-good high that hits quickly and lifts gently. The effects are mostly upbeat: energetic and giggly up front, tapering into a mellow, relaxed finish that doesn’t glue you to the couch. It’s the kind of strain that makes everyday things more enjoyable, whether you're chatting with friends or just vibing solo.
On the flavour side, it’s a sweet blend of earthy tones and ripe tree fruit. Think sugar-coated plums or overripe nectarines with a faint herbal echo underneath. Not flashy or overwhelming, just clean, honest flavour that’s easy to come back to.
Santa Maria Auto comes in at around 12% THC and 0.7% CBD. That puts her in the light-to-moderate range in terms of potency, making her a great option for casual users, social smokers, or anyone who wants to avoid a headlock high. There’s enough kick for a good mood shift and some happy focus, but not so much that you’ll be zoning out mid-sentence.
This strain leans heavily on camphene and alpha humulene. Camphene brings in those earthy, slightly herbal base notes and is often linked to gentle anti-inflammatory effects. Alpha humulene adds a subtle spiced edge. Nothing too sharp, but enough to round out the sweetness with a bit of dry herbal complexity. Together, they help explain why Santa Maria Auto feels so smooth, both in flavour and in vibe.
This one’s tailor-made for beginners. Seriously, if you’ve got light, soil, and the basic know-how, Santa Maria Auto will take care of the rest. She's naturally compact, doesn’t need much training, and shrugs off most of the common growing hiccups. Good pest resistance, medium fungal resistance, and an overall cooperative attitude.
Indoors, Santa Maria Auto is ideal for tight spaces, stealth grows, or multi-plant setups. Her size stays manageable, typically between 40 cm and 80 cm, which means she fits just about anywhere. Outdoors, she’s a bit more expressive, reaching from 80 cm up to 120 cm and thriving in warm to temperate climates. Thanks to her autoflowering nature, she doesn’t need strict light cycles, so you can tuck her into almost any grow schedule without drama.
She finishes fast, with a flowering time of 56 to 63 days from seed to harvest. Indoors, yields range from 450 grams per m2 to 550 grams per m2 if you give her the basics: decent soil, proper airflow, and moderate light. Outdoors, you’re looking at 60 grams per plant to 100 grams per plant, which is impressive for such a compact auto. She doesn’t drag her feet or waste your time. She just blooms, buds, and gets the job done.
Looking for a compact, easy-going strain with sweet flavours and a mellow kick? Santa Maria Auto checks all the right boxes. With fast flowering, beginner-friendly traits, and a laid-back vibe, she’s perfect for growers who want results without the headaches.

Very Happy with how my Santa Maria has grown, going on four months in different stages the first 6 plants look to be around 4/5 ounces
Santa Maria auto flower looks big and beautiful the smell and taste was great! The delivery wasn\'t the fastest.. Will def purchase again easy seed to grow!!
WSE has great! service, the best website, the shipping is fast and stealty, the seeds are cheaper than other famous seedsbanks AND they give you always 20% extra for free! I asked Sensiseeds in march 2021 if there is a possibiliy to ship to germany, but after waiting two days for an e-mail respond from Sensiseeds, they said that there no way. And because the last two words don't exist in germany, I found WSE. I asked WSE, got the answer after 2-3 hours and ordered at the same day: So I ordered 25 seeds and I got 29 seeds. One extra seed was actually a small stone, nevermind :D I've shared the seeds so I endet up with 11 seeds for myself. 100% germination rate so far. Shipping took about 1 1/2 weeks im march 2021 to bavaria. Thanks to WSE! All in all I think that you guys have the potential to be the best seedbank in many ways. In addition to this, I'll write a review of each strain I ordert that you guys get the appreciation you deserve! :)
These seeds gave me no problems and have been very fast growers since the start. The buds are covered in trichomes and the fan leaves are starting too turn a nice purple. Wish I could post some pics on here. Definitely worth the purchase.
The plant has a good size. Not too small and not too big. It is larger than an average indica autoflower. Seeds germinated without problems and quickly grew into an adult plant. Especially for an autoflower this is a very fast bloomer with some good yields.
