Often autoflowering strains get a bad rep because many have unstable genetics and end up producing a small yield and a low THC content. But we believe strongly that an autoflower can and should stand next to a photoperiod.

When crossing our discontinued Top 44 and Early Special cannabis strains, we knew we had to make a damn good strain that produce stable genetics. We didn’t stop until we had a near 100% germination rate that went on to produce a high THC-laden yield in a short time.

This is a great, easy to grow, fast to harvest autoflower that produces a very balanced hybrid high that takes the best qualities from both sativa and indica strains. Her aroma is predominantly skunky, but has a nice fruity note that cuts through the pungent dankness.

Our tip for this strain: Since, she’s an auto you can put her on a fix light schedule and never have to worry about changing. We saw that a lot of our customers put her on a 20/4, on/off light schedule for best results and we agree with that decision.

What we love about this strain: We wanted to create an autoflowering strain that you could brag about to growers that only grow photoperiod stains. We are happy to say we did, but don’t take our word for it, just look at the reviews for this lovely strain because we couldn’t be happier about them.

We will note that Short Rider does make you rather euphoric and talkative so that might have something to do with all the fantastic love this strain gets.

Quote from a customer: “I can truly say that Short Ryder[sic] of Nirvana is a great strain, uniform in growth, autoflowers immediately, and with only a few weeks to go, and the buds glistening already, it will be a great smoke. I was skeptical when it came to Short Ryder[sic] and any autoflowering strain for that matter, but considering the germination rate (100%), health of the plant (perfect and disease resistant), as well as the ability to randomly change the light cycle, I am a true Believer :), thanx again to the great Nirvana team and to the breeders of this amazing strain. Will be ordering real soon.” – Bossy S.
