THC Autofloreciente by Pure Seeds
Ruderalis × Indica
THC Autofloreciente, developed by Pure Seeds, is an indica-dominant hybrid strain notable for its autoflowering capabilities. It was bred to combine the resilience of ruderalis with the potency of indica varieties, offering a faster cultivation cycle without compromising cannabinoid levels.
Appearance
THC Autofloreciente plants are typically compact, growing between 60-100 cm indoors, and exhibit a bushy, dense structure. The buds are characterized by a rich, dark green coloration, often accented with purple hues and bright orange pistils, and are covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance.
The leaves are broad and serrated, typical of indica genetics, with a slightly waxy texture. This visual appeal, combined with robust bud development, has contributed to the strain's recognition in cultivation circles.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of THC Autofloreciente is complex, starting with earthy and pungent notes, layered with subtle woodiness. Upon closer inspection, hints of citrus and a mild skunk scent emerge. The flavor profile mirrors this, offering a robust earthy taste complemented by pine and citrus undertones, finishing with a smooth, almost creamy sensation.
These sensory characteristics are attributed to a balanced terpene profile. The aroma often intensifies during the flowering stage and is influenced by post-harvest curing techniques.
Effects
While specific effects are not detailed in the provided notes, the indica genetics suggest a profile leaning towards relaxation. The strain's development aimed to provide high THC potency, indicating potential for noticeable psychoactive effects.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
THC Autofloreciente consistently reaches THC levels that can rival or exceed 15%, with reported levels around 12% in some analyses. CBD content is less than 1%.
Prominent terpenes identified in its profile include Myrcene, Limonene, and Caryophyllene, which contribute to its distinct aroma and flavor characteristics.
Growing
This strain is designed for ease of cultivation, featuring autoflowering traits that allow it to flower based on age rather than light cycles. It has a relatively short flowering period of 8-10 weeks.
Indoor yields can average between 350-450 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. The plants are resilient and well-suited for indoor environments due to their compact size and consistent bud formation.
Origins & Lineage
THC Autofloreciente was developed by Pure Seeds through a cross between Ruderalis and Indica genetics. The Ruderalis contributes the autoflowering trait, ensuring the plant flowers automatically, while Indica genetics provide potency and characteristic effects.
The breeding process, which began in the early 2010s, aimed to create a high-THC strain with a rapid life cycle. The genetic makeup is reported to be approximately 50% Ruderalis and 50% Indica.
