Auto Maxi Gom
Also known as: Maxi GoM, Maxi Gom Auto, MaxiGom Autoflower
Overview
Auto Maxi Gom is a pioneering autoflowering cannabis strain developed by Spanish breeder Grass-O-Matic, recognized as one of the first 'super autoflowering' varieties to achieve significant market success. Created through the careful crossing of Auto Critical Mass and Auto AK-47, this hybrid combines the dense, resinous bud structure of its indica-dominant Critical Mass parent with the euphoric, uplifting effects of its sativa-leaning AK-47 lineage. The strain incorporates ruderalis genetics that enable automatic flowering based on age rather than photoperiod, making it exceptionally beginner-friendly and suitable for cultivation in various climates year-round. Auto Maxi Gom typically reaches heights of 80-150cm and completes its full life cycle from germination to harvest in approximately 70-80 days. The strain is characterized by its compact central cola with abundant lateral branches that become heavily laden with resinous trichomes, often requiring support due to the weight of the mature buds. Its aroma profile is distinctly tropical and fruity, featuring prominent notes of mango, pineapple, and citrus, with subtle earthy undertones and occasional spicy hints. The cannabinoid profile can vary significantly depending on phenotype and growing conditions, with THC levels ranging from a mild 8% to a potent 28%, making it suitable for both novice and experienced users.

Growing Information
Auto Maxi Gom is considered ideal for beginner growers due to its hardy autoflowering nature and resistance to pests, diseases, and environmental stressors. The strain has a relatively short life cycle of 70-80 days from germination to harvest, with flowering beginning automatically around week 4 regardless of light schedule. Plants typically reach heights of 80-150cm and can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors year-round. Indoor yields average 18 oz/m² (500-600g/m²), while outdoor plants can produce 50-120g per plant (up to 4 oz per plant). The strain thrives in temperatures between 70-80°F (21-27°C) and prefers well-draining soil with regular feeding. Due to the dense, heavy buds that develop, support may be required during late flowering to prevent branch breakage. The compact structure makes it suitable for small spaces, balconies, and stealth growing operations. Monitoring for mold is recommended during the final ripening stages due to the dense bud structure.
