Fat Bastard Auto

Fat Bastard Auto is a 50% indica, 50% sativa autoflower from Auto Seeds, made from Goldmember x Monkey Spunk x Ruderalis. It’s available as feminised autoflowering seeds and is built around a fairly simple promise: strong THC, a quick cycle and plants that stay manageable for most indoor spaces.

THC is listed at 25%+, so this is not a light, casual little auto. The effect starts with an uplifting, euphoric head feel before settling into a calmer body stone. It stays described as clear and steady rather than overly heavy, which suits the strain’s balanced genetics. That makes it a good fit for shoppers who want potency without choosing something that’s all couch-lock from the first pull.

The flavour is fruity, sour, sweet and skunky, with a bit more detail once you break it down. The inhale brings bright citrus and soft sweetness, while the exhale leaves a sweet skunk aftertaste. Cured flowers carry lemon-lime zest, tropical fruit and an earthy skunk note, with the aroma becoming more pronounced after curing.

Fat Bastard Auto has a full cycle of 60–70 days from seed to harvest, so it suits quick turnaround grows. Plants usually reach 100–150 cm, keeping them workable indoors while still allowing enough size for a decent return. Under optimal conditions, yields are given as 400–500 g/m².

Auto Seeds describes it as easy to grow and suitable for both beginners and more experienced growers. Indoors, an 18/6 light cycle throughout the grow is recommended. A well-aerated medium such as coco coir, or a well-draining soil mix, is also suggested. Low-stress training can be used carefully to improve light penetration, and nutrient levels should be raised gradually during mid-flowering to support bud development.

For general cultivation, temperatures around 24–26°C during lights-on and good airflow are recommended. Outdoor growers are advised to start around mid-May, helping the crop finish before the weather begins to change.

The finished buds are dense, sticky and resin-rich, with a bright lime-green colour, orange pistils and a frosted trichome coating. Fat Bastard Auto is a practical choice if you like the sound of a balanced auto with proper strength, citrus-sweet skunk terps and a fast, straightforward grow.
