Smoothie Auto by FastBuds – Fruity Autoflowering Strain for High-Yield Harvests

Smoothie Auto by FastBuds is the most awarded strain in their catalog—a perfectly balanced autoflower that delivers euphoric giggles, rich berry-cream flavors, and rock-solid yields without demanding expert skills.

Worried your autoflower won’t deliver on flavor or potency?

It’s frustrating when you invest time and space only to end up with bland smoke, weak effects, or puny yields. You want a strain that actually tastes like its parents and hits as hard as promised—not another forgettable grow.

What if your plant smells like a fruit smoothie but dies early or molds?

Ignoring resilience means risking your entire harvest. Some autos look great on paper but collapse under heat, humidity, or nutrient stress. You could waste weeks only to lose everything in the final stretch—again.

Smoothie Auto is built to impress and endure

This Somango x Blueberry cross isn’t just about taste—it’s tough. With high resistance to heat, strong structure, and a forgiving nature, it laughs off stress while packing buds so frosty and aromatic they’ve won awards. It’s the rare auto that delivers on every promise: flavor, yield, and resilience.

The genetics are finely tuned for fast flowering, high resin production, and vibrant colors, making it a standout in any garden. Plus, its balanced high works from afternoon to evening, so you’re not locked to the couch or buzzing too hard to relax.

Common doubts—clear answers

Let’s cut through the hype and get real:

• You think that colorful buds mean low potency. In reality, it tests up to 23% THC—color and strength go hand in hand here.
• You think that fast flowering means weak effects. In reality, the balanced hybrid high hits fast and lasts, without anxiety or sedation overload.
• You think that award-winning strains are fragile. In reality, it’s heat-tolerant and resilient—perfect for hot climates and novice growers.

How to grow Smoothie Auto successfully

Set it and forget it—almost. This auto is forgiving, but a few smart moves boost results:

1. Start in its final pot (18–27 L) to avoid transplant shock—ideal for 420 Geotextile Autoflower Pot.
2. Use 18–20 hours of light daily—no changes needed throughout the cycle.
3. Water when the topsoil feels dry—don’t overwater, especially in early stages.
4. Apply light nutrients from week 2—ramp up slowly to avoid burn.
5. Use LST (low-stress training) early to shape the plant—avoid topping or FIM.
6. Install a carbon filter—its strong aroma becomes noticeable during flowering.
7. Flush 10 days before harvest for smoother smoke and cleaner flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Smoothie Auto good for beginners?

Absolutely. It’s forgiving, resistant to stress, and doesn’t require advanced techniques. Just keep it fed and lit—it does the rest.

Can I grow it outdoors in a hot climate?

Yes. It’s bred for hot conditions and handles heat better than most autos. Just ensure it gets enough water and some afternoon shade if temps exceed 32 °C (90 °F).

Does it need topping or pruning?

No. Avoid topping or aggressive pruning. Use gentle LST to open up the canopy, but let the plant follow its natural, productive rhythm.

How does it perform in extractions?

Exceptionally. Its high resin content and rich terpene profile make it ideal for rosin, hash, or concentrates that taste like a fruity dessert.

What’s the best time to harvest?

Harvest when most trichomes are milky with some amber. For a more energetic high, harvest earlier; for deeper relaxation, wait until more amber appears.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I was skeptical at first—another fruity auto claiming award-winning status? But Smoothie Auto proved me wrong. I grew it in a small tent alongside some finicky photoperiods, and it outshined them all. No training, no fuss—just 20/4 light, a Try-Pack Kit Fertilizers BioBizz Bio 100%, and it packed buds so frosty they looked like they’d been dipped in sugar. The smell during flowering was intense—thankfully I had a filter. After curing, the flavor was unreal: creamy mango with a hint of vanilla. The high? Perfect balance. I used it for unwinding after work, not zoning out. If you want a strain that delivers on every level without drama, this is it.
