Autoflower Kush XL

The Kush dynasty has produced a number of award-winning strains over the years. Each one has a different flavor and effect, but what they have in common is their sturdiness in less-than-ideal growing conditions. They are resistant to many diseases and they can bounce back quickly from mild infestations should they occur. In Auto Kush XL, these characteristics are boosted by the inclusion of Ruderalis DNA. The resulting plant is not only resilient, but it also has other features that make it an easy-to-grow option for anyone.

As an autoflower, it is a compact plant that is suitable for tight spaces. But despite its small size, the cola is bursting with gigantic buds. These prized nuggets are somewhat irregularly-shaped, yellowish-green in color, and have tiny pumpkin-orange hairs. The entire plant is showered with a mist of trichomes that are so fine and frosty that they look like white fur.

On top of that, it has a brief life cycle that enables a quick harvest – great for growers who are in a rush. Unlike photoperiod varietals, it does not have to be planted in the spring and then wait until the onset of autumn to bloom. It can decide on its own when to go into the flowering stage and the downtime is not that long – just 8 weeks. 

In a controlled setting indoors, the grow lights do not have to be switched from 18/6 to 12/12 to induce flowering. Simulating the summer’s daylight hours starting from the seedling stage until the end of the harvest will not harm it. In fact, some cultivators choose to keep the lights on 24 hours a day. This encourages thicker vegetation, potentially boosting the yield. Still, bright lights tend to raise the temperature in a grow room, and so adequate ventilation is needed.

The Indica and Sativa effects of Kush XL balance each other out nicely. At first, it will generate a cerebral buzz that is exuberant and yet clears the mind. At this time, you will enjoy being in a social setting with friends who won’t question your sudden giggle fits. Or, you could choose to engage in more solitary activities like painting or reading since it will bring out your creative and contemplative side.

After an hour or two, the sedating impact takes over. Your body will feel more relaxed, but it won’t be a sudden and aggressive couch-lock. Instead, you will feel peaceful and content. Your surroundings will seem more dream-like and hazy. Drowsiness soon follows, and eventually, you will drop off to sleep.

Autoflowers have plenty of advantages that make them the go-to strains for growers, beginners and experts alike. If you are thinking about augmenting your collection, we have a large assortment of auto fem seeds for you to try. One of our best sellers is Auto Super Silver Haze Fem. Named for its silver-shrouded appearance, this weed gives a burst of energy that will outperform a cup of strong coffee. It has a lively flavor, too – sweet, spicy, and tangy.

Another perennial favorite is Auto Critical x Gorilla Glue Fem. With rudimentary care, its yield can reach critical mass in no time. Because it has Gorilla Glue #4 as a parent, the buds are incredibly sticky. They are super potent, too. Just one puff will glue you to the couch for hours. This strain has loads of therapeutic benefits such as pain reduction and stress-relief, making it an essential part of any medical marijuana stash.

Speaking of medicinal value, how about a high-CBD strain like Auto CBD White Widow Fem? It was specially bred to increase the cannabidiol level to 10%. This compound has been found to lessen the frequency of epileptic seizures. It also improves mental resilience for individuals who are chronically exposed to stress. The THC level, on the other hand, is a low 5%. This means that this strain is less psychoactive than most.

However, if you would rather stick to the Kush family, we have Auto Banana Kush Fem. This lovely little plant produces submarine-shaped nuggets that taste like a banana smoothie. Besides the sweet tropical flavor, they have medical and recreational uses galore. They can calm the nervous system and relax the muscles while lifting the mood to a euphoric high.

Last but not least, we recommend Auto Gelato Fem for those with a sweet tooth. By crossing Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies and Sunset Sherbert, a tasty balanced hybrid was born. Like all autoflowers, it is extremely easy to grow with a quick-fire flowering time. In merely 8 weeks, you will be able to harvest an astonishingly generous 500 grams (17.5 ounces) of delightful bud per square meter.
