If you’re a hash maker, extractor, or just looking for the most potent strains out there, this list of our top 5 highest-THC strains is for you.

 

Actually, it's not just THC that matters – all other cannabinoids and terpenes contribute to the potency and type of the effects of a certain strain, and those compounds, along with flavonoids and other important chemicals, are produced and stored in trichomes as cannabis resin. So, our list of the highest-THC strains also happens to be the list of the most resinous, dank plants in our collection, and you can't find better genetics for your next grow cycle.

1. Gorilla Cookies Auto

Our Gorilla Cookies Auto is a modern classic and a legend. Hands-down our top-selling seed line, it's probably one of the most potent autoflowers on the market, which isn't surprising, considering that it's a cross between our auto versions of Gorilla Glue and Girl Scout Cookies. This beautiful cultivar produces buds with dark and light shades of green and purple that give her quite a bag appeal.

 

 

The 28.5% THC makes the buds look like they’re dripping in resin, and the unique terpene profile of earthy kush flavors with minty and citrusy undertones contributes to a pleasant cerebral high and a strong body buzz. Together, these effects will leave you relaxed and motivated all day long.

 

 

As a balanced hybrid, Gorilla Cookies Auto performs very well indoors and outdoors and is super reliable and resistant to all kinds of climates. Thanks to the good genetics inherited from the parents, this auto is super resilient to mold and bugs, making her highly recommended for outdoor growing.

 

This is a perfect plant for beginner growers, but we recommend investing in a good carbon filter, as once the budding starts, the trichomes will be stacking up day by day and the intense aroma will seem to penetrate walls.

 

“There is a easter egg in this strain, this happened to one of the gorilla cookies, turned completely purple and orange, and man, if you get this pheno, you can consider yourself in luck because you will have the best taste to be found in a cannabis plant, fruity sweet and "kush'ish" flavour, brings your taste buds will be lit aswell as your brain and body's CB receptors.”

 

2. Papaya Cookies Auto

Papaya Cookies Auto is a stunning-looking plant; she produces chunky, dense buds, often with purple, yellow, and pink hues, which are covered in thin and long light-orange pistils. The flower mass is evenly distributed between the bulky central cola and several shorter side branches – a testament of its mixed heritage. This plant is a fantastic choice for those looking for a well-balanced hybrid with a slight Sativa edge and a unique dessert-like terpene profile.

 

 

You can expect a delicious aroma that is a complex blend of tropical papaya and cream, with a pinch of sweetness that will leave your room smelling like a bakery. This mouth-watering terpene combination provides a lingering aftertaste and is perfect for concentrate makers who want to produce unique hash that delivers both in the potency and flavor departments.

 

 

This well-rounded smoke won’t leave you couch-locked or sedated but will lightly relax your whole body, while still keeping you focused and alert. In short, it's perfect for a nighttime session, when you want to relax after a hard day of work, read a book, or watch a movie.

 

“Papaya Cookies is sooooo strong - yet she is still not a Couch Lock Strain. She got me flying high for hours the first time I tried her and ever since she is the strain I turn to when I need an extra boost in THC. I love the Fruity Terpenes and how rock hard her Nuggets get. On top of that she is incredibly frosty and has an amazing bag appeal…”

3. Apple Strudel Auto

Apple Strudel Auto is the commercial grower’s dream, as this plant is not only generous but also produces fat and frosty buds of uncommon bag appeal. Our own auto version of this famous Cali strain sports a beautiful light-green color of calyces and a bright sheen of trichomes. When nearing harvest, you will start to see vivid-orange hairs that complement the buds beautifully.

 

 

Thanks to its heritage, this plant grows quite tall and fills the grow room with a pungent sweet aroma which is a blend of baked goods and sour green apple.

 

 

When consumed, this strain offers the best of both worlds. You can expect extremely potent effects that will leave you energetic and focused, but beginners, be warned – smoking too much can take you on a bewildering rollercoaster of outlandish ideas and vivid daydreams!

 

“Its effect comes very quickly after the first puffs. relaxation and pleasant sensation come in waves throughout the body. Fit for unhurried conversation and quiet pastime. I do not want to fuss and think about the bad. very positive indica. you are in a great mood but you want to move less. You can use it in the evening or in a company of friends. where no one is in a hurry.”

 

4. Gorilla Zkittlez Auto

Gorilla Zkittlez Auto is a massive yielder that can grow up to 150cm and produce 650gr/m2. Thanks to its Sativa heritage, this plant develops one tall main cola with multiple side branches. Everything is covered in heavy buds, which are also super resinous and exude a pungent sour aroma.

 

 

Due to the generous bud production, we recommend providing support to the branches when the buds start forming, and if you're growing indoors, make sure you have enough space to accommodate this tall auto. 

 

 

The calyses on the flowers stack up insanely fast and dense, and in just 9-10 weeks, you'll be harvesting them and preparing to enjoy a one-of-a-kind smoke. Expect cerebral effects that will keep you uplifted, motivated, and get your creative juices going throughout the day. It's a perfect high for socializing or creative activities, such as writing or playing music.

 

"...The smell that comes off is both pungent and sweet. The flowers are nice and dense to the touch leaving your fingers quit sticky. Wet weight was a total of 445g...Will be growing again for sure and would recommend it for any level of grower." -Chubbs

 

The potent effects come along with a mouth-watering terpene profile that can be described as a mix of old-school and more modern influences, resulting in a spicy, woody, and earthy flavor with a strong lemony aftertaste and a sharp and distinctive sour undertone. This blend is perfect for those looking for powerful and deliciously fruity terps to make unique concentrates.

5. Tropicana Cookies Auto

This fantastic strain, now in an auto version by the Fast Buds team, is one of our most potent creations. The extremely sticky flowers with up to 27% THC provide very powerful and long-lasting effects, perfect for making unique concentrates.

 

 

Tropicana Cookies Auto is super easy to cultivate and is suited for all types of growers. Her structure is tall but not too wide, as thanks to its Indica heritage, the plant will develop one large main cola and several smaller side branches with really dense foliage.

 

Make sure you have a carbon filter installed in the first weeks of flowering, as the huge amount of trichomes has a flip side of a super pungent and intense smell, so you'll need a way to eliminate it and avoid unwanted attention.

 

 

Even though Tropicana Cookies Auto is a great strain for beginners, the potency of the smoke isn't very beginner-friendly. The effects will smash you in the face and melt it if you are not a seasoned consumer or smoke too much at once.

 

“This is a nice evening strain for relaxing or if you want to chill with your friends. The effects start in the head but, for me at least, make me want to lie on the couch and chill. I am very impressed with this plant. The vape is flavourful though citrus is not what I typically go for when vaping. The citrus is most noticible at lower temps and it transitions to the creamy or woody flavour at high temps. I was leaning towards grapefruit, citrus and cream, which was not a bad guess given the released name is Tropicana Cookies” -CannabisTrope

 

Tropicana Cookies' impressive trichome production offers a refined mix of earthy, woody, and citrusy flavors that are emphasized even more on the exhale and can make the best extracts, hands down. This beautiful combination of potency and terpenes will surely take even the most dedicated terpene hunters by surprise, while it takes you to the moon and leaves you there!

6. In Conclusion

If you're looking for the most resinous and potent autoflowers, these highest-THC cannabis seeds are what we recommend you for your next grow cycle. All of them can be used for making extremely delicious concentrates, like hash, shatter, or wax. Or, if you prefer to keep things simple, just roll some flowers in a joint. Either way, the smoke will leave you soaring through the skies for a long, long time. Just remember that THC percentage is not the only thing important when talking about a certain strain’s effects; its terpene profile plays a role no less important.

 

Just like aromatherapy, the terpenes in the trichomes are not only responsible for the aroma and flavor of your buds but also for the type of effects they produce when consumed. This means that two strains can have the same THC percentage but completely different types of high due to their different terpene profiles. The terps also affect the perceived potency. As for the more quantifiable characteristics, find them in the table below.

 

 

If you’re all about potency and easy of growth, you can’t go wrong with any of these top five, and we recommend trying them all – this way you're sure to find one that gives you an unforgettable experience as a grower and a smoker.
