Gorilla Zkittlez Auto - FastBuds · High-Yielding Indica Hybrid · 63-Day Flowering & 550 g/m² Yield

Gorilla Zkittlez Auto by FastBuds is a high-yielding, fast-finishing powerhouse that delivers top-shelf flavor and knockout potency in record time.

Are You Tired of Bland, Low-Yielding Autoflowers?

Most autoflowers promise big results but leave you with airy buds, weak flavor, or disappointing resin. You end up wasting time, space, and money on strains that don’t deliver.

Confusion, Poor Choices, and Wasted Harvests

With so many 'Gorilla' crosses on the market, it’s easy to grab the wrong one—ending up with a stretchy monster, a mold magnet, or a plant that barely smells like anything. Worse, some growers assume all autos are low-THC or weak, so they don’t even try. That outdated mindset leads to missed opportunities and underwhelming sessions.

The Real Deal: A Strain That Actually Delivers

Gorilla Zkittlez Auto isn’t just another name on a pack. It’s a lab-tested, competition-winning hybrid with verified 29.8% total cannabinoids and a terpene profile that hits like a fruit bomb. This description cuts through the noise—no hype, no fluff—just what this strain really does, how to grow it right, and who it’s perfect for.

Common Myths About Gorilla Zkittlez Auto

• Myth: All Gorilla crosses are too strong for daytime. Reality: Gorilla Zkittlez Auto starts uplifting and creative—perfect for afternoon use.
• Myth: Autoflowers can’t produce dense, resinous buds. Reality: This strain yields up to 550 g/m² of frosty, tennis-ball-sized colas.
• Myth: It smells too strong for discreet grows. Reality: While aromatic, proper airflow and a carbon filter make it manageable indoors.
• Myth: It’s hard to grow because of its size. Reality: With early LST and proper spacing, it thrives even in tight spaces.
• Myth: High-THC strains are always harsh. Reality: Smooth smoke with a sweet, gummy bear finish—easy on the lungs.

What Gorilla Zkittlez Auto Actually Does (And What It Doesn’t)

This strain delivers a balanced, two-phase experience: first a euphoric head rush that sparks laughter and creativity, then a deep, relaxing body stone that eases tension without locking you to the couch—unless you go heavy. It’s not a sedative from the first puff, nor is it a one-trick sativa. It’s a hybrid built for all-day versatility.

It won’t fix medical issues, but it can help you unwind, focus, or enjoy a deeper sensory experience. It won’t stay tiny—expect up to 1.5 m (4.92 ft) in optimal conditions—so plan your space accordingly. And it won’t hide its scent: this one announces itself, so stealth setups need prep.

Real Benefits When Grown and Used Right

• Explosive yields of up to 550 g/m² (16.2 oz/ft²) in under 10 weeks.
• Juicy terpene profile with citrus, orange peel, and tropical candy notes.
• Smooth transition from energetic to relaxed—no sudden crashes.
• Massive trichome coverage ideal for hash, rosin, or extracts.
• Consistent phenotypes with strong mold resistance in dry climates.

How to Choose Based on Your Goals

Whether you're after flavor, yield, or chill, Gorilla Zkittlez Auto adapts to your vibe—if you pick the right setup.

• If you want big yields, use 20 L pots and 18/6 lighting with Hesi Boost during flowering.
• If you’re short on space, start in 11 L pots and apply LST early to control height.
• For maximum flavor, grow in living soil and flush 10 days before harvest.
• If you hate pests, keep humidity under 50% and use Barrier as a preventive.
• For discreet grows, pair it with a carbon filter and oscillating fans.

How to Grow Gorilla Zkittlez Auto for Maximum Results

FastBuds designed this strain for speed and resilience—here’s how to unlock its full potential without overcomplicating it.

Quick overview

Autoflowering hybrid from FastBuds, ~63-day cycle, low to medium difficulty. Ideal for indoor or outdoor in warm climates. Max yield in 20–27 L pots.

Safe start

Begin strong with healthy germination and early root support.

• Germinate in moist paper towels at 22–25 °C (71.6–77 °F).
• Transplant carefully when radicle reaches ~1 cm (0.4 in).
• Use airy soil mix with perlite for drainage.
• Inoculate roots with Root Stimulator de B.A.C to prevent shock.
• Keep humidity at 60–70% in seedling stage.

Directed growth

Guide structure early to handle its vigorous stretch.

• Apply LST from day 10–15 to control height.
• Use 18–20 h light cycle throughout the entire grow.
• Water when top 2–3 cm (0.8–1.2 in) of soil is dry.
• Switch to final 20–27 L pot immediately after germination.
• Support main cola with soft ties if needed.

Flowering by stages

Maximize resin and density with climate and nutrient control.

• Early flowering: Maintain 22–25 °C (71.6–77 °F), RH 50–60%.
• Mid flowering: Reduce RH to 40–50%, boost airflow between buds.
• Use PK 13/14 at week 4 to enhance flower density.
• Watch for stretch—tie down branches to avoid light burn.
• Flush with plain water 7–10 days before harvest.

Harvest, drying and curing

Time it right for the perfect balance of effect and flavor.

• Harvest when 70% of trichomes are milky, 30% amber.
• Cut large branches and hang upside down in dark room.
• Dry at 18–20 °C (64.4–68 °F), 50–60% RH for 7–10 days.
• Cure in glass jars, burping daily for 3–4 weeks.
• Test a bud after 2 weeks—flavor improves over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Gorilla Zkittlez Auto really smell that strong?

Yes—especially in late flowering. The citrus and candy terps are potent. Use a carbon filter and good ventilation to keep it discreet.

Can I grow this outdoors in a cooler climate?

It prefers warmth but handles moderate cold. In cooler zones, plant after last frost and use a greenhouse for best results.

Is it suitable for beginners?

Absolutely. It’s forgiving, resistant, and doesn’t need advanced techniques—just space for its stretch and consistent watering.

How does it compare to Gorilla Cookies Auto?

Very similar yields and structure, but Gorilla Zkittlez has a fruitier, more complex terp profile. Cookies is earthier and slightly shorter.

Can I use it for hash or extracts?

One of the best autos for extraction. High trichome production and sticky buds make it ideal for rosin, dry sift, or bubble hash.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I’ve tested a lot of 'Gorilla' strains, and most are just repackaged hype. But Gorilla Zkittlez Auto? That one stood out immediately. I grew it side-by-side with Strawberry Gorilla and Banana Punch, and while those were great, this one hit different—literally. The first harvest had me laughing at a documentary about snails. Not joking. The flavor is unreal: like sour gummies dipped in diesel. I use LST from day one and 20 L pots—no topping, no stress. One plant in my garage gave me 190 grams dried. I’ve recommended it to friends who swear by it for evening wind-downs. It’s not subtle, but it’s honest. If you want power, flavor, and yield without a PhD in growing, this is your strain.
