Growing Tips for Grape Soda Auto

Grape Soda Auto is a strain that intermediate cultivators will find easy to grow from beginning to end. Grape Soda Auto marijuana plants will thrive indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the ability to completely control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will have to replicate a steady environment similar to the climate of the Mediterranean. Grape Soda Auto cannabis seeds produce buds that are bright green and super long. They have smaller leaves growing out of the cylindrical bud sites.

If you choose to grow outdoors, you will need to hope for consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to completion. Doing so will ensure that you grow healthy buds from the top of the plants to the buds closest to the soil. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the perfect outdoor climate without having to put up with unexpected outdoor variables. These plants grow short and can reach around 2-4 feet tall. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of around 4 feet, these plants can be grown in smaller grow areas such as closets and gardens.

The ideal temperature for these plants is around 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 40-60% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage, but lowering the humidity every week will help this plant grow. Growing indoors will ensure that the moderate humidity levels and moderate temperatures are consistent and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages. 

Topping, Screen of Green (ScrOG), Sea of Green (SOG), and Low-stress training (LST) methods are the best training techniques for this particular strain of cannabis. If performed correctly and at the right time, these techniques will promote bud production and increase final yields. LST helps manipulate the plants by tying down the branches to increase the size and density of the buds while allowing them to grow almost naturally. The “Green” methods will help to reinforce the heaviest bud sites so the plants don’t bend or break. Topping will help keep the plants manageable by trimming the tops so the canopies don’t overgrow. The Grape Soda Auto strain requires an 18-hour light cycle to reach the vegetative growth stage. As an autoflowering cultivar, this strain does not require a change in the light cycle to induce the flowering stage of growth.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Grape Soda Auto strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 55-65 days.
• Yields: While Indoor yields are around 300 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 500 grams per plant. Smaller plants can often produce heavier yields because of the bud size.
• Harvest: Outdoor growers can plan on harvesting their yields around the middle of October, depending on when the seeds were planted.

Grape Soda Auto: Fruity & Skunky

The Grape Soda Auto cannabis strain terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while myrcene and limonene are the secondary terpenes.

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – This is known as the spicy or peppery terpene and can be found in cloves, black pepper, and cannabis plants.
• Myrcene: Secondary Terpene – Myrcene is earthy and found almost exclusively in cannabis plants. 
• Limonene: Citrus Fruits – Limonene is found mostly in the rinds of citrus fruits such as lemons and oranges.
