We present ACE Seeds' first 100% autoflowering strain: Auto Malawi x Northern Lights.

Sativa/indica/rudelaris hybrid of excellent vigor and structure, producing a huge and heavy main cola and powerful side branches loaded with well resinous buds, its production and quality will surprise even the most experienced autoflowering growers.

The current improved F4 version of this hybrid produces 2 main phenotypes. The first phenotype (the most interesting in our opinion) produces potent sativa/indica plants (with a flowering of about 9 weeks and a half), of huge yield, very complex terpene profiles, abundant resin production and excellent flower/leaf ratio. The second phenotype develops in flowering an almost pure sativa expression (so it usually needs about 10 weeks of flowering), reaching big sizes and producing a more open and separate branching from the main trunk, allowing the autoflowering growers to experience with very African sativa phenotypes, quite rare in current autoflowering strains.

The terpene profiles are fragrant and complex. The aromas in flowering can vary between Petit Suisse and strawberry yogurt, and fruity juice (pineapple, pear, peach) in the better yielding green sativa/indica phenotypes. The most extreme sativa phenotypes have woodier aromas and a longer flowering time.

• Growing Tips As usual with autoflowering strains, Auto Malawi x Northern Lights starts to flower after 4 or 5 weeks from germination, regardless of the indoor photoperiod or outdoor season, allowing it to mature properly in latitudes far from the equator, where the photodependent strains start to bloom too late to mature correctly. Therefore, it is important to maximize the growth as much as possible using from the beginning pots of at least 7 liters for indoor growing, and pots of at least 15-20 liters for outdoor growing. It can also be cultivated in mid-latitude climates, finishing in summer time when it is started in spring, being able to benefit in flowering from the longest days with highest light intensity and warmer temperatures, finishing months ahead of the usual autumn harvest of the photodependent strains.  Excellent adaptability to indoor growing, where it can be flowered and harvested next to the mothers with a growing photoperiod, and thus to be able to obtain a harvest without having to prepare another growing area with different photoperiods, as it happens with the photodependent strains.  The higher yielding sativa/indica phenotypes require moderate/high levels of nutrients, while the more extreme sativa phenotypes require a soft feeding. The colas of the very high yielding sativa/indica phenotypes usually require support in late flowering due to the huge volume and weight they reach at the end of flowering.
