Mi5
Also known as: Mighty Mite #5, Mighty Mite Auto
Mi5 Strain Overview
Mi5, also known as Mighty Mite #5, is an autoflowering cannabis strain developed by Short Stuff Seeds. The strain was created by crossing a Mighty Mite autoflowering male with a Lowryder #2 autoflowering female, resulting in a stable autoflowering hybrid. Mi5 was bred specifically for its fast flowering time and compact size, making it particularly suitable for growers with space limitations or those seeking quick harvests.
The strain produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring bright green foliage and orange pistils. Mi5 plants typically remain quite short, usually reaching heights between 40-60 cm (16-24 inches), which contributes to their discreet growing profile. The strain's autoflowering genetics mean it transitions from vegetative growth to flowering based on age rather than light cycle changes, allowing for greater flexibility in cultivation.
Mi5 is noted for its resilience and adaptability to various growing conditions, including cooler climates where some cannabis strains might struggle. The strain's name references both its autoflowering nature (the '5' indicating it's the fifth generation of breeding work) and its 'mighty' performance despite its small stature. While not as widely known as some commercial autoflowering strains, Mi5 has maintained a following among autoflower enthusiasts for its reliability and consistent performance.

Mi5 Strain Growing Information
Mi5 is considered an easy-to-grow strain suitable for beginners, particularly those interested in autoflowering varieties. The strain has a very short life cycle of approximately 8-9 weeks from seed to harvest. Plants typically yield moderate amounts of 30-60 grams per plant indoors and 20-50 grams per plant outdoors, though experienced growers can achieve higher yields with optimal conditions.
Mi5 performs well both indoors and outdoors, with its compact size making it ideal for small spaces, stealth grows, or sea of green (SOG) setups. The strain is particularly noted for its cold resistance, allowing outdoor cultivation in cooler climates where other strains might fail. Plants remain quite short, usually reaching 40-60 cm (16-24 inches) in height, making them discreet and manageable.
Special considerations include avoiding transplanting (autoflowers prefer to be started in their final containers) and providing consistent lighting throughout the grow cycle. While autoflowers don't require light cycle changes to flower, providing 18-20 hours of light daily typically produces the best results. The strain is relatively resistant to common pests and molds, though proper air circulation is still important to prevent issues in dense bud structures.
