Auto Acid by Paradise Seeds

Pure Diesel in an autoflower, with a bouquet the breeder calls unusually intense for the type.

Paradise built Auto Acid from its Acid line, a Diesel family selection taken from the mother plant of a famous American strain and worked with Dutch genetics over many generations of selection and backcrossing. Ruderalis supplies the automatic flowering, in a split the breeder gives as 50% indica, 40% sativa and 10% ruderalis. It is a Diesel for growers who want the fuel without managing a light cycle.

Sour fuel is the headline in both the smell and the smoke, and growers add earth, pine and a sharp, acidic bite to the list.

The breeder describes an uplifting, euphoric high with a buzzy, slightly trippy edge that can still give a lift in the evening. Users report it as energetic and appetising, and it is reported as a favourite of medical users looking for help with pain.

Seed to harvest takes around 75 days indoors and 80 outdoors by breeder figures, and the plant suits low ceilings, balconies and greenhouses. Paradise puts indoor yield at about 400 g/m² and outdoor plants at 75 to 100 g each, noting that it copes well in northern regions with short summers while sunnier latitudes can beat those numbers. For a compact plant, the flavour is the surprise.

Paradise Seeds has been breeder-owned since Luc Krol founded it in Amsterdam in 1994, and its catalogue runs from the cup-winning Sensi Star to Wappa and Delahaze.
