Overview
Black Dog Auto is an autoflowering indica-dominant hybrid strain created by Original Sensible Seeds through crossing classic California strains Blackberry Kush and Headband with their proprietary super auto genetics. This strain represents a faster, more accessible version of classic West Coast genetics, maintaining the quality and potency of its photoperiod parents while offering the convenience of autoflowering characteristics. The strain is known for its exceptionally fast cultivation cycle, completing from seed to harvest in just 60 days.
The plants exhibit distinctive visual characteristics, producing dark, robust plants with almost black leaves that give the strain its name. The buds are notably sticky and syrupy, displaying deep purple and violet tones especially under cooler temperatures. These dense, frosty buds are covered in a crystalline layer of trichomes and emit a complex aroma profile dominated by grape and berry scents with nutty undertones. The strain is celebrated for its hardy nature and adaptability to various growing conditions, making it suitable for both novice and experienced cultivators.
