Kush-O-Matic
Also known as: Kush O Matic, Kushomatic
Kush-O-Matic Strain Overview
Kush-O-Matic is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by the Spanish seed bank Kannabia. The strain was created through selective breeding to combine the classic Kush characteristics with autoflowering genetics, resulting in a plant that automatically transitions from vegetative growth to flowering based on age rather than light cycle changes. This innovation made Kush-O-Matic particularly notable in the cannabis community as one of the early autoflowering strains that successfully maintained the potency and flavor profile associated with traditional Kush varieties.
The strain exhibits typical Kush characteristics in its appearance, with dense, resinous buds that often display deep green coloration with occasional purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The buds are typically covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. Kush-O-Matic plants tend to remain relatively compact, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, with indoor plants typically reaching heights of 60-100 cm and outdoor plants potentially growing slightly taller under optimal conditions.
Kush-O-Matic gained popularity among both home growers and commercial cultivators due to its combination of autoflowering convenience and reliable Kush effects. The strain represents an important development in cannabis breeding history, demonstrating that autoflowering genetics could be successfully combined with traditional high-THC varieties without significant compromise in potency or flavor. Its development helped pave the way for subsequent generations of autoflowering strains with improved characteristics.

Kush-O-Matic Strain Growing Information
Kush-O-Matic is considered a beginner-friendly strain due to its autoflowering nature and resilience. The strain has a relatively short life cycle of approximately 8-10 weeks from seed to harvest. Indoor flowering time is typically 6-7 weeks, while outdoor plants in optimal conditions can be ready for harvest in 8-9 weeks after germination. Expected yields are moderate, with indoor growers typically harvesting 350-450 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 40-80 grams per plant depending on conditions.
The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though it thrives in warm, Mediterranean-like climates when grown outdoors. Plants remain relatively compact, usually reaching 60-100 cm in height indoors and up to 120 cm outdoors. Kush-O-Matic is known for its resistance to common molds and pests, making it suitable for novice growers. Special considerations include avoiding overwatering and providing adequate nutrients during the flowering phase to maximize resin production. The autoflowering nature means plants will flower regardless of light cycle, so growers should not attempt to maintain a vegetative phase through light manipulation.
