The majority of avid consumers usually try to stock up on bud during summer to avoid growing in cold, humid climates but unfortunately, sometimes things don’t go as expected. In some cases, cultivators are forced to grow in less-than-ideal conditions, which with most cannabis strains, tends to cause mold, wasting your time, money and ruining your whole harvest. Fortunately, autoflowering cannabis strains have come a long way and are ideal in this type of situation as they contain Ruderalis genetics which makes them more resilient to not only pests and bugs, but also to harsher climates.

So, if you’re an outdoor grower and are looking for the best autoflower cannabis seeds in the UK, look no further! Here is our top 10 seed selection for 2023. Rest assured, all of these strains will not fail to deliver high yields of top-quality bud in as little as 8 weeks without extra effort!

At low temps you can taste some sweetness and citrus, which gives way to the richer cream or wood flavours at higher temps. I am noticing some really nice purple tones emerging in the buds this grow and alot of frost on the sugar leaves. I find that this strain hits you in the head at first but not an anxiety inducer.

8. Cherry Cola Auto

Cherry Cola Auto is ideal for new growers and pros, as she can easily forgive novice’s mistakes and can put up with training methods while easily rewarding you with up to 600gr/m2 in 63 to 70 days.

“I had a tolerance break for a week when my Banana Purple Punch was finishing curing and the second toke hit me like a train. I was completely lost for what seemed like an hour but was probably 15 minutes, couldn’t remember what I’d been doing or planning to do. Then I found my bearings again and found in me tons of energy to do stuff and feel absolutley happy.”

10. Papaya Cookies Auto

Purple Punch Auto is very easy to grow and one of our most productive strains, a great strain to grow in the UK because thanks to her Indica heritage she can yield up to 600gr/m2 even in cold climates.

Two phenos: One was deep purple all over loads of ginger hairs. Giant calyxes, not very dense, Sticky. Looks cartoonish, and tastes like finewine. Finished 10 weeks. The 2nd pheno is greener up until mid flower. Beautiful purple, mauve, pink buds when mature. Potent, fruity, incensey.”
