Auto Somango by Linda Seeds is an autoflowering hybrid developed by crossing the original Somango with a ruderalis strain. This cultivar aims to preserve the tropical, dessert-like qualities of Somango while offering the convenience of autoflowering genetics. It is designed for reliable growth and a manageable plant size.
Appearance
Auto Somango plants typically grow to a compact height, ranging from 60–100 cm indoors and 80–120 cm outdoors. The plant develops a pronounced main cola with several secondary branches, forming a rounded canopy. Buds are dense and conical, covered in trichomes, and may exhibit subtle lavender or plum hues under cooler temperatures late in the flowering cycle.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Auto Somango is characterized by ripe mango and tropical fruit notes, layered with sweet floral undertones and a hint of earthiness. Some phenotypes may also present citrus zest and herbal spice. Upon consumption, the flavor profile typically follows with a sweet mango taste, complemented by creamy, nectar-like notes and a soft herbal finish, sometimes with hints of citrus candy.

The effects are generally balanced, providing a positive tone suitable for creative tasks or social interaction, without typically leading to heavy sedation at moderate doses. The duration of effects from inhalation is usually around 2-3 hours.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
