Cookies Gelato Auto by Royal Queen Seeds – 23% THC Fast Autoflowering Strain · High-Yielding Indoor & Outdoor Cannabis

Cookies Gelato Auto by Royal Queen Seeds blasts you into relaxation with 23% THC in just 10–12 weeks, turning your grow space into a cookie-scented paradise without the wait.

Worried your auto won’t hit hard enough?

Let’s be real: most autoflowers promise big but deliver a polite tap on the shoulder. You want that knockout punch — the kind that melts stress and fills the room with flavor — without waiting months or babysitting finicky photoperiods.

What if you’re stuck with weak buds and wasted time?

Imagine harvesting airy nugs that barely fog your mirror, all after weeks of care. That’s the auto grower’s nightmare: high hopes, low returns. You end up frustrated, out of cash, and questioning if fast really means cheap. The cycle repeats — germinate, wait, disappoint.

Cookies Gelato Auto shuts that down with photoperiod power on autoflower time

This isn’t your average auto. Born from Cookies Gelato and Big Skunk Auto, it packs 23% THC and yields up to 500 g/m² (17.6 oz/ft²) indoors or 140 g (4.9 oz) per plant outdoors. In just 10–12 weeks, you’re harvesting dense, frosty colas that smell like baked goods and earth. No training needed — just plant, feed, and watch it dominate.

Why this autoflower actually earns its spot in your tent

Cookies Gelato Auto hits the sweet spot between speed and strength. It’s perfect if you’re tired of weak autos but don’t want the 6-month marathon of photoperiods. With 75% indica dominance, it grows short and sturdy (0.90–1.40 m / 2.95–4.59 ft), fits small spaces, and handles minor mistakes. Whether you're a weekend grower or a stealth cultivator, this strain delivers big flavor, big resin, and big results — fast.

How to grow Cookies Gelato Auto successfully

Maximize your harvest with these simple, proven steps — no PhD required.

1. Start in a final pot of 18–27 L (5–7 gal) to avoid transplant stress.
2. Use a light, airy soil mix — consider adding Light Mix Peat Free by Bio Bizz for better root development.
3. Keep light on 18–20 hours daily from seed to harvest — no schedule changes needed.
4. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry — avoid overwatering, especially in early stages.
5. Feed lightly — autos don’t need heavy nutrients. Use a balanced base like Weed Fertilizer Kit Tripack Flora GHE and increase gradually.
6. Support branches with soft ties if needed during flowering — but avoid topping or aggressive pruning.
7. Harvest when trichomes turn milky to amber — usually 10–12 weeks after germination.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I was skeptical at first — 23% THC in an auto? Sounded too good. But after growing it side-by-side with photoperiod Cookies Gelato, I was blown away. Same flavor, same resin, half the time. I grew three in 20L pots under a 600W HPS, no LST, and harvested 480 g/m². The high is deep and calming — perfect after a long day. My only tip? Don’t overfeed. These babies thrive on less. I’ve since recommended it to half my grow crew, and every single one came back saying, “Why didn’t I try this sooner?”
