Shortcut Auto Strain Overview
Shortcut Auto is one of the latest innovations from Happy Valley Genetics, created through a partnership with ETHOS Genetics. This feminized autoflowering hybrid was developed by crossing ETHOS' Pineapple Runtz with itself, creating a stabilized strain designed to meet the needs of both home growers and large-scale cultivators. The strain combines the best traits of indica, sativa, and ruderalis genetics to produce a compact plant with exceptional structure that requires minimal support throughout its growing cycle. Shortcut Auto represents a significant advancement in autoflowering technology, featuring an impressive terpene concentration of 2.0-3.8% alongside potent cannabinoid levels. The strain typically grows between 100-130 cm tall with vibrant green buds accented by bright orange hairs and a generous coating of trichomes. Its sophisticated terpene profile delivers earthy and spicy notes on the frontend, followed by tropical pineapple undertones that reflect its Pineapple Runtz heritage. With an 80-day life cycle from seed to harvest, Shortcut Auto produces high yields of approximately 77.2 grams per square foot, making it an ideal choice for growers seeking quality, speed, and consistency.
