Auto Runtz
Also known as: Runtz Auto, Runtz Autoflower, Runtz Automatic
Overview
Auto Runtz is an autoflowering version of the highly popular Runtz strain, created by crossing the original Runtz (a cross of Zkittlez and Gelato) with ruderalis genetics to provide autoflowering capabilities. This strain is a slightly indica-dominant hybrid (55% indica, 45% sativa) that maintains the signature qualities of its photoperiod parent while offering the convenience of automatic flowering. Released by various reputable seed companies including Zamnesia Seeds, Auto Runtz has quickly gained recognition for its exceptional potency, balanced effects, and reduced cultivation time. The strain is characterized by dense, resin-covered buds that exhibit vibrant colors ranging from deep greens to purple hues, often covered in a thick layer of crystalline trichomes. Auto Runtz completes its lifecycle from seed to harvest in approximately 8-9 weeks, significantly faster than traditional photoperiod strains, while maintaining THC levels up to 27%. The strain is particularly valued for its ease of cultivation and forgiving nature, making it suitable for both novice and experienced growers.
