Strain Description:

Auto Orange Bud is a perfect fusion of vintage and modern cannabis breeding—combining the unmistakable Skunk energy of the 1980s with today’s autoflowering performance. This strain maintains the unmistakable “orange candy” aroma and dense, trichome-rich buds of the original, all while finishing in just 10–11 weeks from seed. The plants reach about 1 metre in height and develop a strong central cola surrounded by sturdy side branches laden with resinous, orange-haired buds. The result is an autoflower that matches photoperiod Orange Bud in potency, yield, and quality—making it one of the best citrus-flavoured autos on the market.


Growing Information:

Auto Orange Bud is exceptionally easy to cultivate and thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments. Indoors, she performs best under a 20/4 light schedule, delivering heavy yields of dense, sticky buds. Outdoors, she’s robust enough to handle variable conditions and finishes reliably within 11 weeks, making her suitable even in cooler climates with warm summers. Her structure is balanced—medium-tall with strong side branching—ideal for SCROG or SOG setups. Thanks to her Skunk genetics, she’s resilient against pests and mould, making her an excellent choice for both new and experienced growers seeking reliability and top-shelf results.


Flavour and Aromas:

Auto Orange Bud bursts with vibrant citrus flavours that define her lineage. The inhale brings sharp notes of tangy orange and sweet candy, while the exhale reveals a classic Skunk bite and earthy undertones. The aroma is equally intense—zesty, fruity, and unmistakably nostalgic for those who remember the original Orange Bud. Her terpene profile is rich in limonene and myrcene, giving her both the energising citrus punch and subtle herbal depth that make this strain so distinctive. Perfect for vaping, smoking, or making terpene-heavy extracts.


Effects:

Auto Orange Bud delivers an upbeat, motivating, and euphoric high typical of a top-quality Sativa. It starts with a cerebral rush that enhances creativity and mood, followed by a light physical relaxation that keeps things balanced and enjoyable. The effects are long-lasting yet clean, ideal for daytime use, socialising, or creative projects. This strain’s mood-lifting energy makes it a great choice for those seeking relief from fatigue, stress, or low mood without any heavy sedation.


Strain Lineage:

Auto Orange Bud was created by crossing the citrus-heavy Auto Daiquiri Lime with the original Orange Bud—a Skunk legend dating back to the 1980s. Through over 12 generations of selective breeding, Dutch Passion perfected an autoflower that maintains the potency, aroma, and structure of the original while incorporating autoflowering traits and faster growth. The result is a strain that honours its heritage while meeting modern growers’ demand for speed, strength, and flavour.


Strain Summary:

Auto Orange Bud by Dutch Passion Seeds is a faithful autoflowering recreation of one of the world’s most beloved Skunk strains. With explosive citrus flavour, uplifting Sativa effects, and massive yields, it’s a perfect blend of old-school charm and new-school convenience. Compact, fast, and highly productive, it’s suitable for beginners and professionals alike. Whether you’re chasing nostalgic orange terpenes, big yields, or that classic euphoric high, Auto Orange Bud delivers a fresh twist on a timeless Dutch classic.
