Royal Dwarf Strain Overview
Royal Dwarf is an autoflowering hybrid cannabis strain developed by Royal Queen Seeds in Spain. The strain was created by crossing legendary Skunk with a ruderalis variety, resulting in a compact autoflowering plant that combines the best traits of its parent genetics. Royal Dwarf possesses a genetic composition of 60% indica, 10% sativa, and 30% ruderalis, though some sources classify it as sativa-dominant due to its uplifting effects.
This strain is notably compact, reaching an average size of only 40-60cm in height, earning its "dwarf" designation and making it ideal for stealth cultivation. Due to its appearance and characteristic branches, it is often referred to as the "cannabis bonsai". The autoflowering trait allows Royal Dwarf to complete its entire life cycle in just 6-7 weeks of flowering, with harvest ready in 8-10 weeks from seed. The strain produces dense, resin-covered buds with a strong skunky aroma inherited from its Skunk parentage, making it particularly appealing to growers seeking potent effects from a discreet plant size.

Royal Dwarf Strain Growing Information
Royal Dwarf is ideal for tight, discreet growing spaces due to its small stature and short growing cycle. Flowering time is typically 7-8 weeks, though it can be as early as 6 weeks when grown using hydroponics. Indoor yields range from 150-200g/m², while outdoor plants produce 30-80g per plant. Plants grow to 40-70cm indoors and 50-90cm outdoors. This strain is excellent for beginners as it's easy to tend and thrives especially well in indoor settings. For best results, seeds should be sown directly into final 11-liter pots to avoid transplant stress, as autoflowers have little time to recover. Optimal temperature is 24-26°C, avoiding more than 10°C difference at night, with outdoor temperatures not recommended below 12°C at night.
