Auto Creeper

Auto Creeper is one of the finest high-quality Sativa leaning autoflowers in today’s market! If you are looking for an autoflowering cannabis seed variety with a powerful high and an amazingly pungent aroma and taste then look no further, Auto Creeper is here to serve you! If you are into a sweet and sour aroma, with hints of lemon, apple and pineapple then this is what you need. Her aroma is quite pungent and with its mostly fruity and floral terps this is something that will truly capture your senses. The taste is also predominantly sour and floral with a tropical taste on the inhale and more lemon, earthy tart taste on the exhale. Some phenotypes can be like a strong Lemon Haze bud, but then infused with more sourer tropical tones. Pretty unique and complex, it’s a new terpene profile that we, up until now, had never smelled before.

Auto Creeper is a potent auto strain with thick buds and a frosty layer of trichomes. The dense buds are known to produce a very sticky resin coating. Some pheno’s might express purple colourations in the flowers towards the middle and end of the flowering period. These phenotypes often stay a bit more compact in structure but get very heavy buds.

After studying autoflower breeding for a while we started working on Auto Creeper. In our opinion this brings a whole new approach to autos. When the SSSC was re-established, we knew that a good autoflower variety was required for the modern seed collection. But it had to be of superior quality to the typical ‘mid-quality’ auto strains which dominate much of today’s market. Auto Creeper was made from scratch using THC rich genetics from our photoperiod Creeper sativa. We still had the autoflowering version of the original Williams Wonder in our seed archive. This strain was used to give the autoflowering characteristics to the genetics. More than 3 years of effort and lots of back crossing with the original Creeper was required until the team were satisfied with the quality.

Auto Creeper is usually around a meter high with extensive side branching. She takes around 12 to 13 weeks to grow from autoflowering cannabis seed to harvest, occasionally a couple of weeks longer for the heaviest yielding phenotypes. The buds look like real sativa flowers, long and stretchy. You may notice some broad indica-shaped leaves from the Williams Wonder indica heritage during the vegetative phase. But the smell and powerful effects are all genuine sativa.

In the 80’s the SSSC worked with an indica strain called Williams Wonder. It was an interesting and occasionally freaky strain for research. Sometimes it showed autoflowering characteristics. This was unusual, auto genetics were far from understood in those days. Autoflower seed varieties still need careful research, there are still plenty of underperforming low potency dwarf autoflowers from the lesser seed companies. However there have been some truly exceptional autoflower genetics created recently as well. These sometimes came via selective inbreeding techniques with the best genetics over many generations. When done well, this preserves the autoflower gene as well as the THC-rich characteristics and taste/aroma from the photoperiod parent genetics.

This is exactly what we have achieved with our Auto Creeper. The characteristics of our photoperiod parent Creeper has been preserved in this autoflowering version. It has become a vigorous auto strain with quite a good stretch. There are few phenotypes to be discovered, some slightly more compact plants and others very tall and big plants. All have a Sativa style bud formation and that classic Sativa ‘up-high’. Most plants can produce very long and elongated buds with a typical Sativa structure. These big autoflowers will look like a big bush with many side buds. These can either be grown in a SCROG or SOG, depending on your preference.

It’s great plant to grow as a single plant in a growroom. It’s a real light feeder. This Sativa dominant autoflower seed variety produces buds with a favourable calyx-to-leaf ratio. The buds only have small and thin leaves in them. This makes it both easy and quick to trim. Resin production is very good, the buds are sparkling with trichomes. This variety can be grown both indoors and outdoors. Auto Creeper is easy to grow and doesn’t require any special requirements to yield well. For the tastiest result we recommend growing with fully organic nutrients, like Biotabs for example.

She has a medium to high stretch. Half of the plants stay rather bushy. The plant structure is medium to large, showing both traits of her Sativa and Indica genetic background. The internodal distance is short to medium, allowing the buds to fully connect and grow into massive flowers as thick and long as your forearm.

The genetics used to create Auto Creeper guarantee the following traits:
•    A vigorous and stable autoflower with a genuine Sativa taste and experience
•    Auto Creeper is a medium to large autoflower, however some phenotypes can grow rather bushy, but all plants will have that classic Sativa bud structure and high
•    This is a Sativa dominant autoflower with large branches and big flowers with a good calyx-to-leaf ratio, which makes them easy and fast to trim

 
Auto Creeper needs around 11 to 13 weeks from seed to harvest. During this 3-month period these autoflower seeds can grow into big plants with a large yield.

Auto Creeper has a powerful Sativa high and a genuine Sativa effect. It’s a pure Sativa buzz with an ‘up-lifting’ high that is mainly energetic, clear and happy. It can give you great focus and clarity. It’s truly a great autoflower strain for people looking for something that can cheer them up whilst giving them energy without becoming racy or paranoid. It is a vibrant and powerful high, but it keeps you exactly in the right zone, floating high in the sky. It is a good strain for artistic people or for when you still need to complete certain tasks. Not a couch-lock high, even when you smoke a large dose. It’s predominantly a mental high with only minor physical properties, it makes you feel euphoric, happy and chilled. Really a good smoke to enjoy during the day or when practicing sports or doing an outdoor walk/hike.

Auto Creeper has an average flowering time of around 12 weeks because most of the phenotypes range between 11 and 13 weeks from seed to harvest. However, there are a few phenotypes that become extra-large, these plants may need another extra week or two. In an indoor environment most plants will be ready to harvest in 80-95 days. Some XXL-yielding phenotype may take up 100-110 days in total from autoflower seed to harvest.

Same counts for plants being grown outdoors in less than ideal conditions. It will take around 100-115 days to harvest these ladies. But for sure you will be rewarded with some high quality autoflower pot based on one of the finest Sativa’s around! Size of the autoflower can vary from 50-150cm, mostly depending on the growing conditions and phenotype. Large pheno’s like to be topped, cropped and supercropped. This helps them to grow even bushier and wider, increasing your harvest. It’s a good strain for both sunny dry climates as well as the more wet and cloudier environments.

Auto Creeper is known to produce a large yield. She has an XXL-potential when grown in the right hands. She can be grown either in a SOG or SCROG, but you can also grow her as a single plant in a big pot the natural way. On average yields of around 500 g/m2 are possible. When grown by an expert even higher yields are possible. Single plants grown in big pots can yield several hundred grams per plant, especially if they receive enough (sun)light and care.

Outdoors the plants will yield around 50-150g per plant on average. In a warm climate these autoflowering seeds can turn into beautiful cannabis plants with many side blooms and a large central bloom. All buds tend to get thick and heavy; branches get filled with large, elongated flowers with a real Sativa appearance. She is best grown in sunny and dry climates but can still handle some bad weather too. Preferably grow her during the best 3 summer months for optimum results.
