Special Auto Strain Overview
Special Auto is a sativa dominant hybrid (80% sativa/20% indica) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. THC testing typically lands between 22% and 28%, pairing raw strength with a 0.8% CBD content. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.
The Special Auto high hits fast and heady — a bright, clear-eyed lift that fuels conversation, ideas and forward momentum, with only a light touch of physical relaxation underneath. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. These combined effects make Special Auto a frequent pick among patients dealing with mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.
Special Auto has a mouth-filling lemon and chocolate flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a chocolate finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded dense green nugs with rich blue-purple undertones, curly amber hairs and a sticky layer of golden-white trichomes.
In the garden, Special Auto is an easy, forgiving grow that suits first-time cultivators, flowering in around 8 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. It shrugs off common beginner mistakes, and yields stay respectable even when conditions are less than perfect. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Special family — see Special Kush #1 and Special Kush Haze for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
