Ever feel like your grow is a roll of the dice? One batch hits just right, the next barely ripples the surface. You invest time, energy, and love, only to get inconsistent highs, weak yields, or plants that crash at the first sign of stress. It’s frustrating, demotivating — like chasing smoke.

That unpredictability steals your confidence. You start questioning your skills, your setup, even the seeds. And every failed attempt means wasted time, money, and that precious window of chill you were counting on. Why gamble when you can grow with certainty?

Shiva Skunk Automatic ends the guesswork. Born from legendary Northern Lights #5 and Skunk #1, this autoflowering champion delivers the same powerful, balanced high every time — no photoperiod tricks, no advanced techniques needed. Just plant, nurture, and harvest dense, trichome-coated buds in just 70–90 days.

Why Shiva Skunk Automatic gives you rock-solid, repeatable results

This isn’t just another auto — it’s stability engineered into genetics. The fusion of Skunk #1’s bold structure and Northern Lights #5’s resilience creates a plant that thrives under pressure. Its autoflowering nature locks in the timeline, so you always know when to expect harvest. No light leaks, no stress from switching schedules — just consistent development from seed to smoke.

The compact, bushy structure stays manageable indoors or on a balcony, while its natural resistance to mold and pests means fewer surprises. Whether you’re growing in a closet or a greenhouse, Shiva Skunk Automatic adapts and performs, delivering that signature heavy-yet-clear high with every crop.

Key factors for control — and how this strain masters them

• Germination & early growth: High germination rate means more plants from every pack — no wasted seeds or second guesses.
• Light cycle: 18–20 hours of daily light is all it needs — no 12/12 switch required, eliminating timing errors.
• Plant training: Responds well to LST and SCROG, letting you shape yields without risking recovery.
• Climate tolerance: Handles cooler temps and variable humidity, perfect for outdoor grows in less predictable regions.
• Nutrient sensitivity: Forgiving feed schedule — less risk of burn or deficiency, even for new growers.
• Harvest timing: Clear trichome progression helps you nail the perfect cut for your preferred effect every time.
• Flowering duration: Fixed 70–90 day lifecycle ensures predictable planning — no endless veg or early flowering surprises.

Recommended routine for flawless harvests every time

1. Start seeds in a light, airy medium like BN Soil for strong root development.
2. Use an 18–20h light cycle from day one — no changes needed.
3. Water lightly at first, increasing as the plant grows — avoid overwatering in early stages.
4. Apply a balanced auto nutrient like Top Crop Autoflowering Pack from week 3 onward.
5. Use low-stress training (LST) early to open up the canopy and boost bud sites.
6. Monitor trichomes in the final weeks — harvest when mostly milky for euphoria, or amber-leaning for deep calm.
7. Flush with plain water 7–10 days before harvest to improve flavor and smoothness.
8. Trim, dry at 18–22 °C (64–72 °F) and 50–60% RH, then cure for 2–4 weeks for maximum potency.

Quick overview: autoflowering · Sensi Seeds · 70–90 day cycle · beginner-friendly · compact and resilient.

Safe start:

• Germinate in moist paper towel or starter cubes at 22–25 °C.
• Transplant carefully once the taproot is 1–2 cm long.
• Use a light, well-draining mix like BN Soil to prevent damping off.
• Keep humidity high (60–70%) in the first week.
• Apply Root It 150ml to boost early root growth.

Stable seedling:

• Provide 18–20h light daily with LED or CFL.
• Water when topsoil feels dry — avoid soggy soil.
• Begin mild nutrients at week 2–3.
• Use airy pots to encourage root oxygenation.
• Introduce beneficial microbes like Bactofil for stronger roots.

Directed growth:

• Switch to 18–20h light if not already set.
• Top feed with balanced auto nutrients like Top Crop Autoflowering Pack.
• Use LST to spread branches and maximize light exposure.
• Maintain pH 6.0–6.5 (soil) or 5.8–6.2 (coco).
• Keep temps 22–26 °C and RH 50–60%.

Efficient flowering:

• Flowering starts automatically — no light change needed.
• Reduce RH to 40–50% to prevent mold.
• Support heavy colas with soft ties or a trellis.
• Boost bloom with PK additives in weeks 5–6.
• Flush with plain water 7–10 days pre-harvest.

Harvest & refinement:

• Check trichomes: harvest when milky for energy, amber for sedation.
• Cut branches and trim sugar leaves.
• Dry slowly at 18–22 °C (64–72 °F) and 50–60% RH.
• Cure in jars for 2–4 weeks, burping daily.
• Store in airtight containers away from light and heat.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my plant isn’t flowering on schedule?

Autoflowers flower by age, not light. If it’s past 6 weeks and no pre-flowers, check for stress (overwatering, pests). Otherwise, be patient — it’ll kick in.

How do I know I’m using the right amount of nutrients?

Start with half-strength and watch the leaves. Dark green = good. Yellow tips = too little. Brown edges = too much. Adjust slowly.

Can I grow this outdoors in a cold climate?

Yes — its Northern Lights heritage gives it strong cold tolerance. Just protect from heavy rain and freezing temps.

Why are my buds not as sticky as expected?

Ensure proper light intensity, avoid overfeeding in late flower, and don’t harvest too early. Trichome development peaks in the final weeks.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I’ve tested dozens of autos, but Shiva Skunk Automatic stands out for its rock-solid consistency. I first grew it during a rainy Spanish summer — not ideal — yet it powered through with minimal issues. I used a simple 20L pot, BN Soil, and the Top Crop Autoflowering Pack, and got 420 grams of dense, frosty buds in 85 days.

What I love is the balance: it hits hard but keeps your mind clear. I use it to unwind after long days, and it never knocks me out completely. The flavor is that classic skunk — pungent, earthy, with a sweet citrus twist. I’ve shared it with friends who usually hate autos, and even they were impressed.

My tip? Don’t top it — LST works better. And don’t skip the flush. It makes a huge difference in smoothness. This is one of those rare strains that delivers exactly what it promises, every single time.
