Get ready for Z-Up Auto by Fast Buds. A sativa-dominant powerhouse that keeps you sitting upright with its 29% THC. This is not a seed pack for the hesitant grower, but for those who know how to handle a flowering rocket of a cannabis plant. Still, this autoflower has a softer side: it grows fast, stays fairly compact, and tastes like lime with a refreshing sour twist. No wonder it’s a hit among those who prefer weed over coffee in the morning.
Features of Z-Up Auto:
- 29% THC with an uplifting high
- Medium-sized plants with dense buds
- Ready to harvest in 10–11 weeks
- Lime, fruity and refreshing sour notes
- Yields up to 600 g/m² or 300 g per plant outdoors
Flavor and Effects
Z-Up Auto smells fresh and sharp – like opening a citrus press after juicing a kilo of lemons. The flavor is just as energetic: fruity, sour, and wonderfully zesty. The high? A one-two punch of motivation and creativity. Even seasoned users feel this strain hit hard: your mind clears, your body tingles, and your to-do list suddenly looks like a playground. Definitely not a couch-lock strain, but a strong and enjoyable daytime high.
Growth and Yield
Although Z-Up Auto is heavily sativa, it remains relatively manageable in size. Expect 70 to 120 cm in height, depending on your setup and environment. With proper lighting, you can achieve up to 600 g/m² indoors. Outdoors, with enough sun and nutrients, yields can reach up to 300 g per plant. It has a strong smell, so a carbon filter is recommended. The buds grow compact, shimmer with resin, and are perfect for making hash, extracts, or cannabis oil.
Growing Tips from Dutch-Headshop
Make sure to provide enough light and airflow. This lady doesn’t like stale air or dim lighting. LST (Low Stress Training) can help distribute her energy evenly and boost yield. She is quite resistant to mold and beginner mistakes, but be cautious with nutrients – Z-Up Auto doesn’t need much, but does require consistent feeding, especially during the flowering phase when she absorbs the most from the soil. Use a light, well-draining soil mix with extra calcium and magnesium to keep her thriving and turn the specs below into reality.
