Auto Speed Bud
Auto Speed Bud is a modern, auto-flowering variety derived from Ruderalis genetics. Engineered for efficiency and ease of cultivation, this strain is designed to reach maturity in just 53 days of flowering. Due to its straightforward growth requirements, it is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments, although growers should anticipate a low yield from the plants. Its contribution to the genetic landscape is evidenced by its role as a parent in the development of Doctor Seedsman CBD 30:1 Auto.
The aromatic profile of Auto Speed Bud is defined by a complex sequence of terpenes, led by dominant myrcene, followed by caryophyllene and limonene. The profile continues with pinene, terpinolene, and linalool, with trace contributions from beta-pinene, humulene, nerolidol, ocimene, bisabolol, guaiol, camphene, caryophyllene-oxide, and p-cymene. This specific arrangement of compounds shapes the sensory experience, grounding the user in the primary earthy and peppery notes while offering subtle, nuanced shifts provided by the secondary and tertiary terpene layers.
As a THC-dominant cultivar, Auto Speed Bud is primarily sought for its ability to induce feelings of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These effects make the strain a functional option for users managing stress or physical pain, while also serving those who utilize the plant to encourage sleep. By balancing these therapeutic use cases with a rapid growth cycle, the strain functions as a specialized tool for both the home cultivator and the medicinal user.

●●○○
Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
happy
