How to grow El Fuego Auto
THC 1% 
Flowering 60 days 
Yield 28 – 40 g/plant Seb's take
El Fuego crossed with Ruderalis into a short, stocky plant that shrugs off mould, mildew, and most pests without complaint. Dark green buds arrive coated in sticky resin, ready in eight to nine weeks. Forgiving of enthusiasm, and capable of more than one harvest a season in a warm enough spot.
Where it comes from
DNA Genetics crossed El Fuego with a high-performing Ruderalis to make a short, stocky autoflower hardy enough for even the harshest conditions. The record names both parents and dwells on the resulting resilience — great resistance to mould, mildew, pests and disease, and little need for special attention. An indica-dominant plant built for the grower who wants a dependable crop rather than a project.
Nose & flavour
No formal flavour notes are recorded, so I will not invent any. What the record describes instead is the look of the buds: dark green, small to medium, and completely coated in sticky, resinous trichomes. A resin-heavy plant, whatever the finer notes of its nose.
The high
The record lists no effect profile, and I will not guess at one — nor lean on the THC figure it gives, which reads oddly low for the type. Better to describe her as she is documented: an indica-dominant autoflower, and leave the experience for the grower to judge rather than overstate it.
Growing it
Short and stocky at 80 to 120cm, flowering in eight to nine weeks — around 60 days — and returning 28 to 40 grams per plant. She shrugs off mould, mildew and most pests without complaint, which makes her genuinely forgiving of a beginner's enthusiasm. A warm, semi-humid spot suits her best, and she is capable of more than one harvest across a season. Undemanding, resilient, and generous with resin — a sensible first autoflower.
