Description
Red Poison Automatic Indica – Sweet Seeds
Red Poison Autoflowering by Sweet Seeds is one of the most famous and bestselling chromatic pillars in the world, an authentic icon of “The Red Family” line. This third-generation automatic genetics stems from the biological union between the multi-award-winning Green Poison and an exotic purple-flowered autoflowering strain descending from ancestral Pakistani Chitral Kush lines.
The botanical focus of this cultivar is astounding: approximately 80% of the specimens develop infiorescences of an intense dark purple, almost black color, covered in a silver frost of trichomes with magnetic visual appeal. It develops a squat, robust, and compact structure, with a strong central stem surrounded by rigid lateral branches ready to hold dense buds without bending.

- Old-School Olfactory Profile: A pungent and deep mix dominated by sweet skunk, wet earth, exotic fruits, and sour citrus undertones.

Cultural Management (Indoor and Outdoor)
- Indoor Setup: It is a docile, unpretentious, and incredibly efficient plant, optimized for low-height grow rooms. Utilizing a constant photoperiod of 20 hours of light and 4 of darkness, the plant develops a massive central cola. Sowing directly into the final container is mandatory.
- Nutrition: Nutrient absorption is smooth: it prefers balanced diets free of nitrogen excesses during early flowering. It tolerates a maximum EC of 1.4-1.5 at peak floral mass, maintaining a constant VPD around 1.2-1.3 kPa.
- Outdoor and Guerrilla Grow: Shines for visual discretion and hardiness. Its contained bearing makes it invisible among balcony planters or in summer guerrilla contexts. Concluding the cycle in just 60 days, it allows for multiple summer harvests at high altitudes, where nighttime temperature swings enormously accentuate the dark purple coloration of the aerial mass.
Terpene Profile and Effect
- Aroma: The organoleptic bouquet is deep, spicy, and herbaceous, inheriting the pungency of Green Poison. During flowering, it emits a dense scent of wet earth, sweet skunk, and wild berries, with a sour aftertaste of bitter citrus. The smoke is full-bodied, oily, and leaves a balsamic signature on the palate.
- Impact: The effect is the epitome of old-school indica physical peace. It wraps the body in a steady and widespread bodily muscle relaxation that instantly melts away physical fatigue and accumulated stress. The mind remains serene, clear, and wrapped in a pleasant sensation of peaceful calm free of paranoia, making it ideal for evening hours and rest.
Strain Comparisons
- Red Poison Auto vs Green Poison Photoperiod Feminized: Photoperiod Green Poison offers slightly larger buds and requires a light switch, remaining green. Red Poison Auto slashes commercial times to just 60 total days from seed, offering unbeatable visual discretion and spectacular dark purple colorations.
- Red Poison Auto vs Dark Devil Auto: Dark Devil Auto introduces Big Devil XL genes, showing greater vertical stretch and more incensed scents. Red Poison Auto maintains a structurally more compact and columnar bearing, visually denser central buds, and a more marked physical stone.
FAQ
- Does it always turn purple? The purplish coloration manifests biologically on about 80% of the offspring. It is a stable genetic trait, but it is stimulated and intensified enormously if the plant meets cool nighttime temperatures late in flowering.
- Can I top this plant? No, high stress techniques (HST) are highly discouraged on fast autoflowers. Use exclusively light LST to widen the canopy across the branch plane.
- How long should the root flush last? 10 days of water only at a balanced pH before cutting are sufficient to clear the substrate and guarantee maximum purity of the skunk and fruity terpenes.
