Origins & Lineage
Auto Onyx is the result of innovative breeding by Seedsman, who combined ruderalis, indica, and sativa genetics. This crossbreeding aimed to merge the auto-flowering trait of ruderalis with the desirable characteristics of indica and sativa plants.
The lineage was carefully selected to produce a strain that is both adaptable and high-performing, establishing itself as an early contender in the auto-flowering market.
