How to grow Royal Cheese Automatic
Taste
Seb's take
UK Cheese meets Royal Critical and a ruderalis line, and the pungent, spiced cheese aroma survives the crossing intact. The high is a settling one — relaxed, calming, happy — paired reliably with a serious case of the munchies. Forgiving of enthusiasm and done in eight weeks, this is a beginner's strain in the best sense.
Where it comes from
Three strands run into this one: the unmistakable Cheese, Royal Critical and a ruderalis line to hand it the autoflowering habit. The Cheese in question is the UK cut, the same pungent article that built a reputation in Britain long before it wore a crown, and its character survives the crossing entirely undiluted. Royal Critical lends the yield and the ballast, the ruderalis the calendar. What you have, then, is an old British favourite taught to flower on its own schedule without surrendering a scrap of what made it worth growing.
Nose & flavour
The nose does not travel discreetly. Pungent, savoury cheese leads, exactly as the pedigree promises, with a spiced warmth folded underneath to keep it from being one-note. It is among the more aromatic strains you might keep in a tent, and a carbon filter would not go amiss. The sort of aroma that announces itself before the jar is fully open.
The high
A settling sort of affair. Relaxed, happy and calming in that order, with none of the racing edge some hybrids carry. What the record is candid about is the appetite that follows, a serious case of the munchies, so keep the kitchen stocked. Companionable rather than sedating, and easy company for an unhurried evening.
Growing it
At 15% THC she is honest about what she is, and the better for it. Flowering runs 77 to 84 days, roughly eight weeks of the game, finishing at 60 to 100cm, a manageable height for most spaces. Yields land between 425 and 475 g/m², solid for an autoflower. Her chief virtue is temperament: she will take every mistake you make and absorb it without complaint, which makes her genuinely forgiving of enthusiasm. Indoors or out, she grows to the same standard, asking little and giving back reliably.
