Pineapple Runtz Auto
Also known as: Pineapple Runtz Autoflower
Pineapple Runtz Auto Strain Overview
Pineapple Runtz Auto is a modern autoflowering hybrid strain that represents a pinnacle achievement in autoflower breeding technology. Pineapple Runtz is the first Auto we've created that I think could potentially win a Cannabis Cup, according to Ethos Genetics. The strain exists in two main versions: Ethos Genetics developed their version through crossing (*Runtz x Piña) x Piña Auto x (*Runtz x Piña Auto) using Pink Runtz from clone, while Anesia Seeds selected a Pineapple Kush for taste and THC content over two years and finally crossed it with a selected White Runtz and only added a touch of ruderalis genetics. This strain showcases large, sparkling buds that are coated with a very thick layer of resin and exude a wonderfully sweet and exotic aroma of pineapple and berries. The autoflowering genetics make it particularly accessible to novice growers while maintaining the quality and potency associated with photoperiod strains.
The strain's appearance is striking, featuring beautiful dark colours towards the end of flowering, contrasting with the thick white resin layer that covers its flowers and fluffy rounded airy forest green nugs with golden undertones, thick golden-orange hairs and tiny, frosty white crystal trichomes. Pineapple Runtz Auto has gained significant recognition in the cannabis community for combining the beloved candy-forward characteristics of the Runtz family with tropical pineapple flavors. Pineapple Runtz emerged from that wave of flavor-driven hybridization as a logical next step, appealing to consumers who wanted tropical punch with Runtz' signature candy sweetness. By 2021–2023, many dispensary menus across the West Coast and select East Coast markets reported Pineapple Runtz or closely related variants as periodic drops, often selling through quickly.
