CBG Auto

CBG Auto by Kannabia Seed Company is easy to grow both indoors and outdoors, therefore an excellent option for beginner growers. This strain has a cannabigerol (CBG) content of 7% and THC levels lower than 0.1%, which makes it suitable for medicinal purposes. Its interesting terpene profile is highly enriched by its sweet flavors and floral aromas. 

Just to make it clear, CBG is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, meaning it can’t alter mental conscience and it’s most frequently used for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and neuro-protective properties. As this cannabinoid is the first acid formed by the cannabis plant, it is often called marijuana’s “mother cell”.

How to Grow CBG Auto Marijuana Seeds

Learn to grow CBG Auto indoors

CBG Auto produces sturdy and bushy average height plants that in most cases don’t grow past 90 cm. Its autoflowering aspect makes it very easy and comfortable to grow indoors, where it can yield approximately 300 g/m2 8-9 weeks after the first leaves show up. For this cultivar in concrete, we recommend using a 4 x 4 system, sowing 16 seeds in 7 L pots per square meter, although a 3 x 3 system with larger pots is also a good option. In any case, transplanting them is not a good idea as they are too fast and won’t have enough time to recover from the generated stress.

In order to promote a greater root system stimulation during the first few weeks of life, adding Roots Boom is a great choice. This high performance rooting solution is made of Ascophyllum nodosum extract, amino- acids and other organic matter.

Learn to grow CBG Auto outdoors

CBG Auto offers best results outdoors when it is grown between October and March in the northern hemisphere as a greater sun exposure will increase the yield and its quality, therefore, the buds will be bigger and full of sticky resin.

This variety exhibits a strong resistance against insects such as red spider or white fly, as well as against fungi, like for example mildew, oidium and botrytis. With proper due care, this hybrid can yield around 40-90 g/ per plant, 57-63 days after the germination of the seed.
