Trip Advisor… Just like its big sister, Auto Acid is an indica crossed with sativa hybrid that delivers an inspirational, and slightly trippy, high and is also good for medical users seeking pain control.
he taste and the smoke is pure Diesel. This autoflower variety’s heritage extends from the mother plant of the world famous American strain with the infusion of Dutch genetics to create a version that has more potency than the original. One of our new school strains, Acid was well received by Diesel fans when it was first released and continues to be in high demand.
We achieved the Auto Acid hybrid through selection and backcrossing, a process that took us many generations before we were happy with the results. The auto-flowering element comes from the addition of Ruderalis genetics, bringing the automatic gene to the plant.
The result is a plant that will grow just about anywhere – from city windows to camouflaged corners of gardens and greenhouses. Over the past few years we have invested heavily in developing our autoflowering varieties, breeding plants that come with more stability and produce higher yields.
For the indoor grower, particularly those with limited height in their grow space, Auto Acid provides a good option. Give it 75 days from germination to harvest indoors and expect 400 grams per square metre. Outside, expect each plant to give you up to 100 grams of frosty trichome coated bud.
Auto Acid is also good news for outdoor growers in northern regions, from the UK and parts of Canada to Czech Republic and Austria, where Auto Acid will thrive in the relatively short summer. However, for those sowing their seeds in southern regions of Europe, the United States and on the South American continent, you could enjoy a harvest that exceeds our estimates.
Like the name suggests, expect a bouquet and flavor that is unusually intense for an autoflower variety – as the taste, in keeping with the Diesel tradition, has a reassuring sourness to it. The effect is a buzz that puts a smiley, psychoactive shine on the day and will also take you through the evening should you need an energizing twist.

Strain FAQ
What distinguishes Diesel strains' scent and flavour?
Combine the raw, strong smell of diesel gasoline with pleasant citrus and peppery spice. Due to their rich terpenes, Diesel strains are said to offer a unique sensory experience. Limonene and caryophyllene dominate, creating a powerful, distinctive aroma and flavour.
Compared to other cannabis plants, how long do auto-flowering strains live?
Cannabis strains that auto-flower sprint to the finish! They produce several harvests in 7–10 weeks from seed to harvest. Those in cooler climates with shorter growing seasons benefit from this fast life cycle.
What gives some cannabis strains a sour flavour and smell?
A particular combination of terpenes gives some cannabis strains a sour taste and smell. Limonene's lemony undertones, Myrcene's earthy undertone with citrus, and Caryophyllene's spice create the sour profile loved by many.
Can you save money buying seeds in bulk?
Bulk seed buying is the trick to saving money. Larger volumes of seeds come with a lower price, making them a good choice for those who want to get more without spending more. Be sure to check out our Bulk Seed section for some great deals!
Does this strain's South American heritage mean anything for resiience?
South American cannabis cultivars are said to be resistant to pests and illnesses due to their wide variety of environmental adaptations. They are ideal for breeding programmes that aim to strengthen cannabis plants due to their resilience.
