About this release
Big Bud has long been famous as the benchmark for high-performance indica and Big Bud Automatic is the latest update to our definitive heavy strain. These feminized cannabis seeds produce vigorous, easy-growing plants which flower automatically and quickly develop large, solid, highly potent buds. Big Bud Automatic is our top-yielding autoflowering variety! The original Big Bud clone which travelled from the USA to Holland in the 1980s was a vigorous Afghan-Skunk hybrid which produced huge, heavy flower clusters. The project to turn that single female plant into a stable cannabis seed strain began by pollinating the Big Bud clone with cannabis varieties that were very similar to its parent plants. This produced two early hybrids, Big Bud x Skunk #1 and Big Bud x Northern Lights #1, which both proved very popular. Eventually, an example of the clone’s original Afghan parent - a bulky hash plant cultivar - was obtained, which made it possible to backcross and stabilise the variety. The result was a vigorous mostly-indica cannabis seed strain that could equal and even exceed the yields of the original clone, and significantly enhanced her potency and flavour. Our Big Bud seed strain was released in the early Nineties, quickly picked up several awards, and has been one of our most popular strains ever since. More recently, Sensi Seeds created a high-performance feminized version of this venerable strain, and the improvements and refinements continue with our latest release: Big Bud Automatic! This feminized, autoflowering cannabis seed strain retains the flavour, potency and density of Big Bud while having a more compact structure and a faster flowering time. Normally cultivated indoors under lights, Big Bud Automatic can also grow outdoors in sunny climates, and its autoflowering ability allows it to bloom successfully in unusual or irregular light cycles. Plants begin flowering around the time they produce their seventh to ninth pair of true leaves, which is usually a
