Stromboli Auto by Paradise Seeds – Fast, High-Yielding Autoflower for Easy Growing

Stromboli Auto by Paradise Seeds is a powerhouse autoflower that packs massive yields, a fast 8-week grow cycle, and a delicious citrus-pine flavor into one low-maintenance plant—perfect for growers who want quality without the hassle.

Are you stuck using slow, high-maintenance photoperiods?

Most autoflowers promise speed but fall short on flavor and yield. Others need constant tweaking, nutrient schedules, and perfect conditions just to survive. And let’s be real—nobody has time for that.

Stuck with weak plants and weak results?

If your last grow barely filled a jar, or you’re tired of plants stretching out of control, turning your setup into a jungle, you’re not alone. Many autoflowers either crash under stress or deliver harsh, one-dimensional highs. You end up with wasted space, wasted time, and a product that doesn’t even taste good.

Meet your new all-in-one autoflower: Stromboli Auto

Stromboli Auto isn’t just fast—it’s reliable, resilient, and rewards you with dense, resinous buds in as little as 56 days from seed. With its balanced hybrid genetics, it grows compact (perfect for small spaces) but still produces up to 550 g/m² indoors. Outdoors? Expect 80–150 g per plant, even in less-than-ideal conditions. It’s the set-and-forget strain that actually delivers.

Indoor grow: compact, powerful, and ready in 8 weeks

Stromboli Auto thrives under 18–20 hours of light, hitting 60–80 cm (2.0–2.6 ft) with a bushy, indica-dominant structure. Its short stature makes it perfect for SOG or ScrOG setups, and it handles high light without burning. You’ll see thick lateral branching and tight internodes, meaning more bud sites in less space. Flowering starts automatically, so no light cycle changes—just plant, feed, and harvest in under 9 weeks.

Outdoor or stealth grow: resilient and discreet

Whether you're growing on a balcony, rooftop, or hidden corner of the garden, Stromboli Auto blends in with its modest height and fast finish. It’s resistant to mold and pests, tolerates temperature swings, and finishes before the worst of autumn weather hits in the Northern Hemisphere (harvest: late September to early October). In the South? Plant in late spring for a mid-summer harvest. Its low smell during grow keeps things discreet—pair it with a carbon filter from our grow shop for total stealth.

How to choose the best setup for you

Stromboli Auto fits any grower’s lifestyle—whether you’re tight on space, time, or experience. Here’s how to know where it shines brightest:

• If you’re a beginner, its forgiving nature and fast cycle mean success from day one.
• If you’re short on space, its compact size fits perfectly in closets or small tents.
• If you grow outdoors, its resilience handles wind, rain, and humidity like a champ.
• If you want quality without complexity, this is your strain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I grow Stromboli Auto outdoors in a cold climate?

Yes—its Ruderalis genetics make it tolerant to cooler temps. Just plant after the last frost and ensure 18+ hours of daylight.

Does it need a lot of nutrients?

No, it’s moderate feeder. Start low and increase slowly—overfeeding can burn roots and reduce yield.

Can I use training techniques?

LST (low-stress training) works well, but avoid topping or FIM—autoflowers don’t recover well from aggressive pruning.

What does it taste like?

Bright citrus up front, with earthy pine and a hint of diesel on the exhale—smooth and flavorful.

Is it good for beginners?

Absolutely. Fast, forgiving, and high-yielding—Stromboli Auto is a top choice for first-time growers.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I’ve grown Stromboli Auto in both my indoor tent and on my rooftop garden—and it’s become my go-to for quick turnarounds. I love how it stays short and bushy, making it perfect for my 60x60x120 cm tent. I used 20-hour light cycles and a simple soil mix with added perlite. At week 6, I started noticing that citrus-pine aroma filling the room. By week 8, the buds were rock-hard and glistening. I flushed for 10 days, dried slowly, and cured for three weeks. The high is smooth—starts energetic, then melts into deep relaxation. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants quality without the wait. Pair it with Oidium Killer Agrobacteria if you’re growing in humid conditions—it keeps powdery mildew at bay.
