From the bay of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, comes the famous bay black variety which was given to me years ago by a friend on the beach of Copacabana. This inspired the name for my SuperAuto hybrid version. A very motivating strain, super lush, highly branched, and the buds are not overly compact which makes it ideal for growing in wet sites!
Accelerate the crop: For outdoor I recommend growing plants in at least 25 liter pots or first in 3 liter pots for two weeks and then transplanted directly into the earth with good soil for even better results. The plants can take a lot of feeding from the start. No worries of over feeding because my SuperAutos forgive any mistakes... Water with nutrients for growth during the first 6 weeks and then move to a mix of 50% growth nutrients - 50% flowering nutrients during weeks 7 and 8. Then only use flowering nutrients up until the last 10 days. Flush with filtered water.
Strain FAQ
How have tall cannabis strains been used historically?
Tall cannabis cultivars, like Hemp, have a long history beyond psychoactivity. Their fibres have been used in textiles, ropes, and building materials for ages.
Why are many Central American and Caribbean strains Sativa-dominant?
Many tropical cannabis cultivars are Sativa. Height, long flowering, and stimulating effects are their hallmarks. Unique geographical features have caused these Sativa strains to evolve different affects and flavours.
Why do Sativa-dominant strains flower slower than Indicas?
Sativa-dominant strains flower slower than their indica cousins, usually in around 60–90 days. Their sluggish pace reflects their equatorial heritage, where longer growing seasons have moulded their growth patterns.
How does the long flowering time effect cannabinoid levels in these strains?
Long-flowering cultivars produce more THC and CBD due to their longer development. This means that by harvest time, certain strains may have stronger effects.
What distinguishes auto-flowering cannabis strains genetically?
Their cannabis ruderalis heritage makes auto-flowering strains distinctive. Their capacity to flower without a light schedule is due to this rare cannabis cousin. Their clever method distinguishes them from Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica strains that wait for light cues to flower.
