Samsara Seeds: 11 Feminized Strains, Five of Them Autos

Say you've got one small indoor space free until October and you want two runs out of it instead of one. That's the exact job this shelf handles: five of the 11 strains here are autoflowering and finish on a fixed countdown from germination, so you can plan the second sowing before the first one is even dry.

A Seed Bank Built Around Autos and Feminized Genetics

Samsara describes itself as a cannabis seed bank specialising in autoflowering and feminized seed, and the catalogue backs that up. All 11 strains we stock are feminized, so there are no males to hunt down and pull. Nobody has published a home country or a founding year for the brand, so we're not going to invent one. What is documented is the breeding stock: Northern Lights, Mazar, Haze, Chronic, White Dwarf, AK 47 and Lavender all show up in the family trees, which is older material than most of the dessert crosses sitting elsewhere in our cannabis seeds range.

Five Autos That Wrap Up in 62 to 75 Days

Thunder Bloody Mary Autoflower is the quickest, done 62 days from germination, small and tight with a dry Afghan smell. Flash Babylon Auto and Supersonic Cristal Storm Autoflower both land at 65 days: Flash Babylon leans indica with resinous buds and an odd yeast-and-cheese funk you either love or you don't, while Supersonic Cristal Storm stops around 60 cm and smells of old wood the whole way through flowering. Ultraviolet Autoflower takes the longest at 75 days and pays it back in flavour, sweet mango and citrus with a tropical edge. Shot Adrenaline Autoflower runs a 10 week flowering period and carries a sharp strawberry and pineapple tang. Watch out for the numbers on all five: yields are per plant, roughly 40 to 75 g, so sow several rather than pinning your season on one.

The Six Bigger Plants, Where the Weight Is

Spiritual Punk (Mazar and Northern Lights heritage) flowers in about 65 days indoors, shows soft blue tones early with a velvety citrus smell, and gives around 450 g/m2 indoors or up to 800 g per plant outside. Holy Grail 69 cuts the usual Haze wait down to under 10 weeks with Haze and Chronic behind it, at about 450 g/m2. Punky Lion is the tough one, North Alaskan genetics, 8 weeks, up to 600 g/m2 indoors and 900 g per plant outdoors. El Alquimista is the low-hassle hybrid at 7 to 9 weeks. Sweet Black Angel reaches 110 cm and smells of sweet musk and blackberries, but its resistance to mould and pests is poor, so keep it inside. Green Love Potion goes deep purple at 90 cm, smells of mint and lavender, and is listed ready 55 days from germination, though it needs watching for pests outdoors too.

Start With El Alquimista, Not Sweet Black Angel

First time growing feminized cannabis seeds? El Alquimista more or less runs itself, 7 to 9 weeks, mould resistant thanks to its Northern Lights side, up to 700 g per plant outdoors. Want speed instead of size, take Thunder Bloody Mary Autoflower and skip the light timer entirely. We'd leave Sweet Black Angel until you've got a couple of harvests behind you: best aroma on the shelf, worst tolerance for a humid room. The autoflowering half of this shelf is the part that empties fastest here, so if Ultraviolet Autoflower shows as in stock, that's the one to put in the basket now.
