BMW Autoflowering

BMW Autoflowering is a unique autoflowering cannabis strain developed by Yardie Seeds, based on a natural Jamaican sativa strain known locally as Blue Mountain Weed (BMW). The strain originates from the peaks of the Blue Mountains in Jamaica, where it naturally grew as a native sativa. According to local accounts, the original Blue Mountain Weed genetics were crossed with an unknown American strain in the late 1990s, when American importers attempted to develop hybrid autoflowering seeds in the ideal growing conditions of the Blue Mountains. These importers reportedly never returned, leaving their genetic legacy to evolve naturally in the mountain environment.

Yardie Seeds has since adapted this strain to be 100% autoflowering by crossing it with Lowryder genetics, creating a stable autoflowering version that maintains the characteristics of the original Jamaican strain. The strain combines ruderalis, indica, and sativa genetics, resulting in a balanced hybrid that offers the best traits from each lineage. The autoflowering trait allows the plant to transition from vegetative growth to flowering based on age rather than light cycles, making it an excellent choice for both novice and experienced growers. BMW Autoflowering represents a fascinating example of how traditional landrace genetics can be preserved and enhanced through modern breeding techniques, bridging the gap between old-school Jamaican cannabis culture and contemporary cultivation methods.
