Top 10 Strongest Cannabis Autoflowering Strains in 2024 - Highest THC Strains

In a market place so heavily dominated by numbers and statistics, many people are in search of the most potent Cannabis the planet has to offer, especially if you smoke a lot.

If you're an avid cannabis consumer it's most likely you want to grow the most potent genetics available, knowing which strains to cultivate is not always straightforward, so we have created a shortlist of the 10 strongest autoflowering strains on the market created for those with the highest tolerance!

Always keep in mind that the cannabinoids found in cannabis plants work synesthetically with other chemical compounds such as terpenes and flavonoids; You might have heard of Limonene or Myrcene…these are just two of the eighty to a hundred terpenes found in cannabis plants and are also responsible for the type of effect you perceive.  For example, strains with a high Limonene content will provide a more energetic effect while strains high in Myrcene will provide a more relaxing, calm high so make sure to also take a look at the terpenes found in the specific strain as they are as important as the THC and CBD contents!

That said, take a look at our Top 10 Strongest Autroflowering Strains; All of these strains offer unique powerful effects that may be more cerebral, corporal, or a mix of both but in all cases will be extremely potent for those who want a long-lasting effect that takes you to the moon and leaves you there.

The cure’s almost finished and I’ve already tested this stuff in my my bong which I washed sqeeaky clean for the occasion.

Grow Tips 

  • Due to her extremely loud terpene profile, it is well recommended to use carbon filters up to the job. Especially when drying the buds, the aroma can become seriously overwhelming. 
  • Defoliating certain Indica-shaped fan leaves will help light penetrate into the canopy. This will allow the lowest parts of the plant to grow large-sized buds. 
  • Get those trim bags or sifting screens ready, as she is unbelievably resinous. A wise choice for the connoisseur hash maker or extract artist.

 

“Smoke report on these is taste is super smooth with hints of a creaminess. The flowers came out with either shades of purple on them or covered in red, but both density and taste the same. Sticky would be a highly understatement as they are almost sappy. I did find multiple spots where sugers have seeped out the flowers leaving a sap. Over all definitely recommended if your an indica lover it's not to couch lock but enough to know your relaxed. All 3 plants came out to a dry weight of an astonishing 270g or a little over 9 and half ounces. So an average of 3 ounces a plant I'd put it more on the heavy yielding strains. For sure a fun one from sprout to harvest I'd recommend to any level of grower. Happy Growing”

11. In Conclusion

If it is a couch-locking Indica that will leave you on your knees begging for more, or you want a super Sativa high, our selection of the Top 10 strongest autoflowering strains will definitely keep you busy this year.

Based on our selection of 10 strongest autoflowers now you should be definitely ready to decide on which one suits your needs this year. Here’s a quick rundown of our top 10 strongest autoflowers, just remember that as mentioned throughout the article, it’s extremely important to not only look at the THC and CBD levels but also at the terpene profile as it will give you a better idea of what type of effect to expect.

Remember that Cannabis plants produce trichomes that contain terpenes, cannabinoids, and flavonoids that work like aromatherapy and result in Indica, Sativa-like effects or a mix of both of them.This means that yes, cannabinoids such as THC and CBD, among others, are needed but in order for consumers to experience the effects we all know and associate with cannabis, terpenes, and flavonoids are as important.

Even though cannabinoids are important, it is not all that matters.  So if you're looking for a specific effect, either medicinal or recreational, it's a good idea to look for that specific terpene profile instead of looking for THC or CBD-rich strains only. Good luck working your way through this list of the strongest strains in 2024!
