Auto Gun
Ruderalis × Indica × Sativa
Auto Gun is an indica-dominant auto-flowering strain developed by Dutch Quality Seeds. It emerged from early 2000s experimentation aimed at combining ruderalis genetics with indica and sativa traits to create a resilient, potent, and flavorful cannabis variety.
Appearance
Auto Gun typically presents dense, medium-sized buds covered in a frosty layer of trichomes. The buds can display a range of colors, including deep greens and subtle purple hues, especially as they mature. Its compact structure, influenced by ruderalis genetics, makes it manageable for growers.
The plant features broad leaves with serrated edges and a robust stem structure designed to support heavy bud clusters. This hardy morphology contributes to its reputation for resilience in various growing conditions.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Auto Gun is complex, often described as a blend of earthy, woody, and spicy notes, with underlying hints of citrus and pine. This multi-layered scent profile is attributed to its diverse genetic background.
Its flavor follows the aroma, offering a palate that combines sweet, woody, and spicy elements with a touch of citrus. This combination provides a multi-dimensional sensory experience for users.
