Anastasia 99 Auto by Bay Seeds
Cannabis ruderalis × Unknown
Anastasia 99 Auto is an autoflowering hybrid cannabis strain developed by Bay Seeds. It is bred for a balanced profile and rapid growth from seed to harvest, making it suitable for various growers and environments.
Appearance
Anastasia 99 Auto typically presents a compact to medium plant stature, often reaching heights between 60 and 100 cm indoors. It features a prominent central cola with several lateral branches, forming a conical structure ideal for confined spaces. The leaves are generally mid-green, and some phenotypes may show subtle purple hues in the sugar leaves and calyx tips during late flowering, especially in cooler temperatures. Buds are characterized by dense, resinous colas with a high calyx-to-leaf ratio, appearing frosty with abundant trichomes.
Aroma & Flavor
While specific details are limited, the '99' in the strain name often suggests a lineage associated with bright, fruity profiles. Growers can anticipate aromas and flavors that may include notes of citrus, tropical fruits like mango and pineapple, with potential undertones of cream, pine, and spice. This profile is generally expected to be clear and aromatic without being overly sedative.
Effects
Anastasia 99 Auto is noted for producing clear, energetic effects that are generally not overwhelming when consumed in moderation. Its onset is noticeable, making it a candidate for daytime or early evening use. The strain is reported to help alleviate stress.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This autoflowering hybrid typically tests between 18-24% THC, with CBD levels below 1%. While specific terpene profiles are not publicly detailed by the breeder, common terpenes found in similar modern autos may include Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, and Pinene. These contribute to the strain's aromatic qualities and potential effects.
Growing
As an autoflower, Anastasia 99 Auto relies on age rather than photoperiod to initiate flowering, allowing for flexible lighting schedules (e.g., 18/6 or 20/4) throughout its lifecycle. It typically completes its cycle from seed to harvest in 70-85 days. Indoor yields can range from 350-500 g/m², while outdoor plants in containers may produce 60-120 g per plant. Its compact size and straightforward growth make it accessible for small-space and novice growers.
Origins & Lineage
Developed by Bay Seeds, Anastasia 99 Auto is an autoflowering hybrid that incorporates Cannabis ruderalis genetics, responsible for its rapid, age-based flowering cycle. The '99' designation in its name often indicates a breeding intention to evoke uplifting, fruit-forward characteristics, potentially influenced by sativa-leaning genetics. The specific parent strains are proprietary, but the goal was to combine the speed and reliability of autos with modern potency and desirable aroma profiles.
