Growing Santa Maria Autoflower (indoors and outdoors)

The autoflowering version of Santa Maria can be considered a real beginner's strain, which means that it is easy to grow and doesn't require a lot of maintenance. Ideal if you are growing for the first time.

Santa Maria Auto is a beautiful autoflowering hybrid variety that will put a smile on your face, and you can grow it indoors or outdoors.

The Santa Maria Auto is a plant that does well in areas with mild summers and doesn't mind the occasional rain shower. However, you should take into account a slightly increased sensitivity to mold. It is therefore advisable to keep the plant away from damp, humid places. Over-watering can be problematic.

So take the proper measures and keep a close eye on your plant when it gets too much water. This way you can quickly detect signs of mold. As long as you do that, you don't have to worry too much about problems.

To reduce the chance of mold, it is advisable to top the plant, and we can also recommend SCROG. Tops and Scrog also encourage your plant to grow wide, which increases yield. It is also a way to strengthen your stems to reduce the chance of breaking branches.

Flowering time

The autoflowering Santa Maria will have a flowering time of around 56 to 63 days. This short flowering time makes this autoflowering plant an attractive choice for anyone who wants to enjoy high quality weed quickly.

Tip
A light cycle of 18/6 is sufficient, but you can also put her in a light cycle of 20/4.

Plant height

Santa Maria Auto is described as a small but powerful cannabis plant. It is a plant with a large central cola.

When grown indoors, the plant reaches an average height of 40 to 80 cm. Outdoors, it reaches an average height of 80 to 120 cm and will develop several side branches.

Santa Maria Autoflower yield

Despite her low height, this does not mean that she will produce less. This plant puts all her energy, which she saves in the growth phase, into the flowering phase to produce rock-hard, THC-rich buds.

Under a bright sun, the plant will delight you with a sky-high yield that can reach 500 to 600 grams / m² outdoors. Indoors, she is capable of yielding 450 to 550 grams / m².

Effects

Santa Maria weed boasts an average THC content of around 12% with CBD levels of 0.7%. You will therefore not be blown away by an overwhelming stone. She is a lot more relaxing than contemporary weed, which often exceeds THC levels of 20%.

Her effect leaves you wonderfully relaxed and brings you into a euphoric state. The weed is often used to relieve pain, insomnia and muscle tension. She is therefore a popular choice for medicinal use. In addition, she can also have a positive effect on the libido.

Side effects

Santa Maria Autoflower is a nice mellow strain and is not accompanied by unpleasant side effects that are sometimes associated with more potent strains. If you get dry mouth and eyes while smoking, drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.

Smell and taste

The weed coming from the Santa Maria Autoflower plant has a sweet smell in which fruit and citrus can be recognized. The taste matches the aroma where you experience a deliciously sweet taste with fruity-floral flavors and strong hits of citrus scents.

Her aftertaste is slightly earthier and lavender-like - an authentic sweet floral aroma. A great strain to smoke and gentle on the throat. Like sailing through a steady ocean, this strain will not make you cough violently.

Origin

Santa Maria autoflower is a cross between the Santa Maria and the Ruderalis. Her genetics are therefore 80% Indica and 20% Ruderalis to add the desired autoflowering qualities.

By crossing her with a ruderalis that contains the autoflowering genetics, she can flower automatically, regardless of the number of light hours. This means that you can enjoy the benefits of an easy-to-grow strain without compromising on the quality of the classic South American strain, which was once used in ancient rituals in the Amazon.
