Auto Mazar by Real Gorilla Seeds
Afghani Indica × Cannabis Ruderalis
Auto Mazar by Real Gorilla Seeds is a compact, autoflowering indica derived from classic Afghani genetics crossed with Cannabis ruderalis. This strain is recognized for its dense, resin-heavy flowers, straightforward cultivation, and a predominantly body-focused, calming experience. It offers a reliable option for both novice and experienced growers seeking a resilient and productive plant.
Appearance and Morphology
Auto Mazar plants present a stocky, indica-dominant structure, typically reaching heights between 60-100 cm indoors. They feature a prominent central cola with several strong lateral branches, short to medium internodes, and large, dark fan leaves. The flowers are notably dense, often compared to golf balls or soda cans, and are coated in abundant resin. Pistils change from cream to rust as the buds mature, and the overall appearance is often enhanced by a silvery sheen from trichome density.
Aroma and Flavor Profile
The aroma of Auto Mazar is characterized by earthy and hash-like notes, reminiscent of traditional Afghani charas, with undertones of incense and a subtle sweetness. Secondary notes can include pine, a hint of citrus peel, and dried fruit, particularly after a slow cure. Upon consumption, flavors tend to be earthy and mildly sweet on the inhale, with notes of pine and sandalwood. The exhale offers a gentle spice and a savory, nutty echo, contributing to a smooth experience.
Effects
Auto Mazar delivers a soothing, body-forward experience that promotes a sense of calm. Its effects are predominantly indica-leaning, providing a relaxing sensation that is well-suited for unwinding. The strain is generally considered to have a sedative quality, making it a good choice for evening use.
Terpenes and Cannabinoids
This strain is typically THC-dominant, with minimal CBD content. THC levels commonly range from the mid-teens to the higher end, with some cultivated examples reaching 18-22%. The terpene profile often emphasizes myrcene, contributing to its earthy aroma and relaxing effects, alongside beta-caryophyllene and limonene. Total terpene content is generally observed between 1.0-2.5% of dry weight.
Growing Characteristics
As an autoflower, Auto Mazar transitions from seed to harvest in approximately 10-11 weeks (around 70-80 days), making it a fast-finishing option. It is prized for its resilience, low-maintenance requirements, and straightforward cultivation, making it suitable for both beginners and veterans. The plant exhibits sturdy stems and uniform growth, responding well to minimal intervention and capable of producing heavy yields relative to its size.
Origins and Lineage
Auto Mazar originates from a cross between a robust Afghani indica landrace, specifically from the Mazar-i-Sharif region, and Cannabis ruderalis. This hybridization was developed to incorporate the autoflowering trait and a compressed life cycle while preserving the potent, resinous structure and characteristic aroma of its Afghani parent. The version by Real Gorilla Seeds maintains this heritage, emphasizing rugged performance.
