Bob Marley has always been an icon for smoking marijuana (Rasta people rather call it ganjah). Nowadays you can hardly find a dorm without at least one poster with Bob approvingly looking at the potheads. Thus, it is prior to accentuate: Bob Marley has nothing to do with people getting high on your staircase to sit there and chatter. This person was a talented and versatile artist who created a musical style of his own. More than that, Marley was a fair sportsman. Healthy lifestyle and humanistic philosophy were not last on his list, either. As for marijuana, to Bob it was a means to evaluate one’s spirit and then to work in the directions discovered, a means for self-perfection and broadening one’s horizon. Not many know that Marley also was in Vietnam (during the war, that is), and this played a crucial part in developing his pacifist ideas.Mentioning cannabis in an interview, Bob said “Smoking weed makes you calm. On one hand, your mind becomes clearer, on the other hand, you slow down and sit to do some thinking. One can get drunk and be stupid, or else smoke and meet oneself. Booze teaches you to be alcoholic, while the herb teaches you to be yourself, a personality”.Raggae music is a musical expression of Rasta philosophy. Its dreamful rhythm renders the feeling of the moment that a musician once managed to catch. Raggae songs are just like people living on the seashore: both childlike and wise like an old man, like the seashore itself, lullabyed by the dawns and tide. Bob Marley is still alive, and our hearts still smile to his music.

Auto Bob is a representative of the new autoflowering generation. Autoflowering cannabis spends less time vegetating, hence it gives less harvest. But new autoflowering strains have come to be as potent as photoperiodic marijuana, and Auto Bob is a living proof. Its genetic base consists of a trippiest and smelliest Cuban Indica, vigorous and rich in cannabinoids, crossed with a pure Jamaican Sativa valued for its mighty cerebral high that kills fatigue. Auto Bob produces plants of Indica-resembling shape, but the bright green color and somewhat protruded leaves give out its partly Sativa parentage, also colas tend to be a little conic.Grow peculiaritiesAuto Bob plants are short, branchy and normally form 4-6 side colas. This strain ripens fast and in about 3 months after seedling can be harvested. While flowering, buds give off a sweet intensive smell. It is highly recommended to use all kinds of LST with Auto Bob, since even lighting dramatically increase buds growth. Normally one plant gives 150+ g, but bending your cannabis can result in 50-100 g per plant more. Average harvest rate with Auto Bob is about 300-500 g/m2. Dry Auto Bob buds taste earthy with piny notes. Auto Bob is an easy to grow strain and can be used for your first cultivation experience. Due to Sativa genes these plants are resistant to molds and cola rotting. Meanwhile, its Indica parentage makes Auto Bob adaptable to heat.EffectAuto Bob’s mixed Sativa-Indica effect shows itself as a surge of vigour, euphory and confidence lasting for about half an hour (individually), then gradually turning to a deep stone which lasts for 2 hours more. Efficient as a muscle relaxant and antistress agent, makes for sound night sleep, lowers blood pressure. Its higher CBD percentage may be of great use to those seeking for the anti-inflammatory effect of marijuana. More suitable for night use.
