How to grow Waist Deep Auto
Taste
Seb's take
Chronic Auto crossed with Turbo Bud Auto, a straight 50/50 split finishing in around 8 weeks both indoors and out. Resinous, sticky buds cluster around one main cola, and unusually for something this potent, she is not pungent or smelly — ideal for a sunny balcony that needs to keep quiet about it.
Where it comes from
Chronic Auto crossed with Turbo Bud Auto, both from Heavyweight Seeds' own autoflowering stable, a straight 50/50 built for speed and yield in equal measure. The record calls her one of the more potent autos the breeder offers, which for a house cross of two automatic lines is a fair claim. The parentage is honest working genetics rather than fashionable pedigree: two dependable autos folded into a third that keeps the best of both.
Nose & flavour
The record sets down no specific notes, so I will not invent them, but it does make one point worth having: she is not pungent or smelly, which for an autoflower on a balcony is no small virtue. A discreet plant, then, that keeps its aroma to itself. Grow her where a louder strain would give the game away, and let the jar reveal what modest character she has.
The high
At 19% THC on a balanced 50/50 build, the effect sits squarely in the middle, neither wholly heady nor wholly heavy, but an even hand of both. For an autoflower this is respectable potency, enough to satisfy without overwhelming. A versatile sort of high, suited to most times of day, in keeping with a plant that refuses to commit fully to either side of the family.
Growing it
Her real appeal is discretion. She finishes in around eight weeks, indoors or out, staying between 80 and 120cm, and forms resinous, sticky buds that cluster around one big main cola. She prefers a sunnier spot and a 20/4 light cycle indoors, and being both medium-sized and low in odour she suits a balcony or terrace that needs to keep quiet. Yields run 400 to 500 g/m², generous for her size. A tidy, unobtrusive plant that crops above its weight.
