Moonlight Auto
Also known as: Moonlight Autoflower
Moonlight Auto Strain Overview
Moonlight Auto is an autoflowering cannabis strain developed by breeders seeking to combine the convenience of autoflowering genetics with balanced hybrid effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis literature, but it appears to have emerged in the late 2010s as part of the wave of autoflowering hybrids designed for both novice and experienced growers. Autoflowering genetics allow this strain to transition from vegetative growth to flowering based on age rather than light cycle, making it particularly suitable for growers in regions with shorter growing seasons or those seeking multiple harvests per year.
The plant typically exhibits a compact, bushy structure characteristic of many autoflowering varieties, with dense, resinous buds that display a mix of deep green and purple hues, often accentuated by vibrant orange pistils. The buds are usually covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance that inspired the 'Moonlight' name. The strain's aroma profile combines sweet, fruity notes with earthy undertones, creating a complex sensory experience that many users find appealing.
Moonlight Auto is noted for its relatively short life cycle, typically completing its growth from seed to harvest in 9-11 weeks. This rapid maturation, combined with its manageable size and resilience, has made it popular among home growers with space limitations. While not as historically significant as some classic photoperiod strains, Moonlight Auto represents the ongoing evolution of cannabis cultivation toward more accessible and efficient growing methods.

Moonlight Auto Strain Growing Information
Moonlight Auto is considered a beginner-friendly strain with moderate difficulty. The autoflowering genetics make it suitable for growers of all experience levels. Flowering time is typically 9-11 weeks from seed to harvest. Expected yields range from 300-450 grams per square meter indoors or 30-100 grams per plant outdoors, depending on growing conditions. The strain performs well both indoors and outdoors, with indoor cultivation allowing better environmental control. Plants typically reach 60-100 cm in height, making them suitable for discreet grows or limited spaces. Preferred growing conditions include well-draining soil, consistent but not excessive nutrients, and temperatures between 20-28°C (68-82°F). Special considerations include avoiding transplanting (autoflowers prefer to be started in their final containers) and providing adequate light during the vegetative stage to maximize yield potential.
