Lowlife Seeds breed auto-flowering cannabis hybrid strains using the original Lowryder Seeds genetics. Adding other classic cannabis strains into the mix Lowlife Seeds produce fast growing auto-flowering hybrids with different characteristics. Currently in the range are: Automatic AK47, Automatic Hindu Kush, Automatic White Russian, Automatic Blueberry and Automatic Lemon Skunk with the Blueberry being expected about June 2008. And more are planned! Lowlife Seeds is building a reputation all around the world for its ability to create fantastic stable Lowryder hybrids.Our ultimate aim is to create an autoflowering strain to suit every requirement. The Automatic AK47 for example is a heavy yielding (for an auto-flowering variety) sweet smelling, buzzy high, branchy plant suitable for patios, growrooms, conservatories etc. She can grow up to 2ft tall, she's easy to manicure and packs one hell of a punch. The Automatic Hindu Kush on the other hand is smaller, growing no taller than 12" but the buds she produces are tight and dense and resin coated to the extreme! She will grow well on patios etc just like the AK47 but she's small enough to go into window boxes and in smaller areas, same with the Automatic Blueberry and Automatic Lemon Skunk seeds, both very easy to hide due to small size but you can grow lots of them close together and really maximise yield.

Auto Lemon Skunk was developed using a lemon pheno Skunk#1 that we've been keeping as a clone mother for almost 15 years and the original Lowryder. Although Skunk#1 is the building block for plenty of modern stable hybrids, many find it to be quite variable in its phenotypes and the discovery of a lemon scented pheno was something to treasure. Having grown it every season since 1994, the transition to creating an auto flowering version seemed obvious and so the initial F1 cross with Lowryder was made. 2 years and 6 generations later, we have something we are now very pleased with and we hope you like it too. Auto Lemon Skunk is one of our shorter varieties, rarely exceeding 14 inches tall and usually forming one central cola with minimal branching. Plants are very symmetrical (just look down from above) and have a good but not extreme coating of resin. The high and aroma is the Auto Lemon Skunks strongpoint. The high is a balance between the speedy high of a sativa and the couch lock of an indica, a true all-day smoke and of course the aroma is that of over ripe lemons. The difficulty rating of 6/10 is because the Auto Lemon Skunk does not like having its roots restricted or to become dry, it's slightly sensitive to over feeding and spider mites will choose this strain over almost any other. The best way around these issues would be to start seeds in 5litre pots or bigger, never allow the growing medium to get too dry, feed lightly and ensure high humidity during it's early stages. Even so, a spider mite targeting insecticide may be required at some stage. A rewarding strain if you are prepared to look after it.
