Strawberry Pie Auto Feminized Seeds by FastBuds – Frosty Buds, Fruity Flavor & High Yield

Strawberry Pie Auto by FastBuds is a compact, high-yielding autoflowering strain that produces dense, trichome-rich buds with a delicious blend of strawberry, cookie dough, and gas. Ready in just 9 weeks, it’s ideal for discreet grows and delivers up to 550 g/m² indoors.

Worried about weak yields and bland flavors?

Many autoflowers promise big harvests but end up stretching too much, smelling weak, or crashing in flavor after harvest. You invest time and space only to get airy buds with little punch or aroma.

Without the right genetics, your grow stays underwhelming

When your plants don’t pack flavor or resin, the experience feels flat. You miss that rich terpene punch and smooth high that makes growing worth it. Plus, if they’re too tall or sensitive, you risk detection or stress-related issues.

Strawberry Pie Auto delivers frosty, flavorful harvests on a tight schedule

This FastBuds strain solves it with massive trichome coverage, a complex fruity-sweet aroma, and a compact structure that fits small spaces. It grows up to 1.00 m (3.28 ft) tall and yields up to 550 g/m² (1.6 oz/ft²) in just 8–9 weeks from seed. With THC levels reaching 26%, it offers a balanced, relaxing high without heavy sedation—perfect for afternoon or evening use.

More discretion, fewer worries

Strawberry Pie Auto stays compact and bushy, rarely exceeding 1.00 m (3.28 ft), making it perfect for stealth grows in small tents or discreet outdoor setups. Its dense, upward-growing colas reduce horizontal spread, and the strong fruity scent can be managed with proper ventilation. For odor control, consider using a carbon filter—especially during flowering, when the aroma intensifies.

Control over the experience

• Compact size lets you grow in tight spaces without sacrificing yield
• Autoflowering nature means no light cycle changes—just 18–20 hours of light daily
• Resilient to temperature swings and common stressors

How to grow it responsibly and comfortably

4. Provide 18–20 hours of light daily with LED or HPS
5. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry—avoid overwatering
6. Keep temperatures between 22–26 °C in veg and 20–25 °C in flower
7. Reduce humidity to 40–50% in mid to late flowering to prevent mold
8. Flush with plain water 2–3 weeks before harvest for smoother smoke

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I’ve grown a lot of autoflowers, but Strawberry Pie Auto stands out. I ran two plants in my 2x4’ tent under a 600W LED, 20/4 cycle. They stayed short—under 1 m—and filled the space with frosty, colorful buds. I used LST early and gave them a light bloom booster. The smell was intense—like strawberry jam and diesel—but worth it. Harvest came at week 9. After a 10-day flush and 3-week cure, the smoke was smooth, fruity, and perfectly balanced. Not too sleepy, not too zappy—just right for unwinding. If you want flavor, resin, and ease, this one’s a no-brainer.
