Overview
IBig Bud Auto is a cross of Big Bud and a large phenotype of a ruderalis indica. This was back crossed with the original Big Bud mother and stabilized. This strain has consistently proven its yield calibre topping the scales at 150g+ per plant of beautiful sparkling buds.
Strain Effects
As an indica dominant hybrid the overall effect is relaxing with a very pleasing buzz being felt throughout your body. However there is still some Sativa in the genetic line of the original big bud and this is evident in the mood uplifting effect that is felt along side the more physical feelings. You will not get a complete numbing couch lock form this strain which makes it a great strain to unwind with if you still want to be able to focus on Netflix of getting into some gaming.
Growing info
A real advantage of Big Bud Auto is that it will grow well in nearly all climates. It will be perfectly happy with minimal training, just make sure you give it some support during flowering. This is because it tends towards a large single cola that fattens up quickly and can overwhelm the strength of the stem and branches. Initial vegetation can take slightly longer than some autos before it starts to flower, extending the overall growth time, but this also adds to that all important yield. It will also respond well to quite heavy feeding so don’t be shy with nutrients once the plant is established.
Appearance and Aroma
Typically Indica in shape the side branches form of a main stem giving that classic Christmas tree shape to a plant that normally tops out around 100-130cm. The leaves are quite broad and a have a slightly lighter colour than many indica dominant strains. The buds are huge and very dense, often appearing quite pale, especially in the later stages of flowering as the trichomes begin to dominate. The aroma is classically skunky with an earthy touch. As flowering really gets going these intensify significantly so is you are trying to be discreet, odour eliminators are a must.
MSNL Editors Verdict
If you are looking for a big production plant that is easy to grow this is your girl. For outdoor growers that have the luxury of an April start you can easily get two harvests a year of very tasty buds

"Unbelievable yield"
Review by Andrew
IDK if it is due to me ditching the 300w led lights in favor of the 250w sodium vapor for flowering but the yield exceeded my wildest dreams. It isn't dry yet but the 400-500g yield prediction in the seed info doesn't seem like the bs I originally thought it was.
Too happy.....I am off to the twilight zone(Posted on 11/02/2021)

"My tent is full of fruity desserts "
Review by Curtis
I got a 4 x 8 indoor grow tent and I use fox farms medium along with there nutrients 3 led grow lights at a 1000 w each a humidifyr a heater fans all the good stuff and I keep it at 78 degrees and 50 percent R.H. and lighting is 18. 6 everything I grow is the kind and always a good yield. I only use your seeds and maybe 1 out 10 won't germinat. And I germinat them in the medium. The girls at 58 days and starting to smell fabulous. I got 3 pineapple kush, 3 lemon haze 3 ak47's, 3 big bud s that are autos and started flowering in less than 30 days plus I have 3 G 13's regular plants I'm guna clone for a while before I put them on 12. 12. In my 3 x3 tent and those are med. Buds.so I have no complaints on your products. After harvest I'm going to start a new grow of Auto blue dreams, purple Hulk, white widows and white lightnings.so until my next review happy growing.

"Plan on changing plans/layouts of plants."
Review by Jose
Got 3 going now out of 5 with 2 more coming right behind em.
I set my lights at just short of a meter no where near done vegging and they are only 10 to 15 centimeters away from the lights.
The span of the branches is just shy of a meter each plant.
Big Bud is definately BIG/HUGE for an auto.
I hope the yields are great if i get in between a 500-1000 grams i will be ecstatic with the low end but not surprised if they out put on the higher end. In which case i will prolly nut about the yields.
So if you were not planning on doing a SOG with only a few plants think again they will fill a good size space with only 5 plants. Plus get some height to the plants.
The genetics of the seeds from MSNL is pretty darn good compared to most places that charge double what MSNL does.
If you are a light smoker 1 crop will get you through most of the year with 5 plants. Heavy smokers might need 2 sets or one big grow.(Posted on 09/01/2020)

"Impressed"
Review by 9planets
This plant grew just over 3 feet. Buds are nice and dense. Smells really fruity. It's curing now but I tested a bud and to be honest it's killer. I have been smoking 25 plus years and this little auto with its 10 to 14% THC knocks me out lol. Great strain. 1/4 nutes.
