Auto Alpujarreaa by Pyramid Seeds
Alpujarreña × Ruderalis
Auto Alpujarreaa by Pyramid Seeds is an autoflowering hybrid strain developed to embody the resilient character of the Andalusian mountains. It combines ruderalis genetics with indica and sativa traits, resulting in a plant that offers a balanced effect profile and reliable cultivation. This variety is appreciated for its moderate potency and distinct aromatic qualities.
Appearance
This strain typically presents a compact and bushy structure, rarely exceeding 100 cm in height, making it suitable for various growing spaces. Its leaves start broad and dark green, reflecting indica influence, and may show slight narrowing during flowering. The flowers are described as medium-dense with good resin production, developing a frosty appearance by mid-bloom. In cooler conditions, plants may exhibit purple and lilac hues in the sugar leaves and bracts.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma is characterized by dominant notes of mountain herbs and pine, underpinned by an earthy and mineral base. Myrcene contributes a musky, damp soil scent, while pinene adds resinous pine notes. A hint of lemon, attributed to limonene, emerges after curing, brightening the overall bouquet. The flavor profile mirrors the aroma, offering a clean pine-resin taste followed by herbal earthiness and light citrus. A subtle peppery note from caryophyllene can be detected, with nuances of rosemary and lemon zest lingering on the palate.
Effects

This balanced effect makes it a practical choice for those seeking relaxation and a sense of calm, combined with a focused mental state.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
The terpene profile is notably influenced by myrcene, caryophyllene, and pinene. Other contributing terpenes may include limonene, linalool, humulene, and ocimene. The cannabinoid content is typically moderate, with THC levels ranging from 12-17% and CBD levels below 1%. This combination results in a balanced psychoactive experience with potential therapeutic applications.
Growing
As an autoflower, Auto Alpujarreaa completes its life cycle from seed to harvest in approximately 65-75 days.

Its compact stature and fast turnaround make it a reliable option for both novice and experienced growers.
Origins & Lineage
Auto Alpujarreaa was developed by Pyramid Seeds by crossing the Alpujarreña landrace genetics with ruderalis. The intention was to preserve the traditional mountain character of the Alpujarra region while introducing autoflowering traits. The resulting hybrid leans slightly indica in its structure and effects, while retaining sativa influences in its aroma and mental clarity.
