Breeder-verified strains with grow data and character profiles
Apricot Auto is Fast Buds' award-winning Indica-dominant autoflower — a strain that defines the future of modern genetics. Bred from Compound Genetix's Apricot (light purple cut) and Fast Buds' elite GG4 Auto F6, this F5 strain delivers up to 26% THC, 550 g/m² yields, and a knockout effect in just 9-10 weeks. A true world champion, Apricot Auto is prized for her unique apricot marmalade terpene profile and exceptional resin production — perfect for connoisseurs and extractors alike.
Auto Mazar is Dutch Passion's autoflowering version of the legendary Mazar photoperiod variety — a classic that has been in the collection for over a decade and counts among the founders of the autoflower revolution that transformed commercial cannabis breeding during the 2010s. The genetics cross the original award-winning Mazar (Afghani x Skunk #1) with an Indica-dominant autoflower, and the result is a robust, easy-to-grow plant that produces powerful Afghan Indica character with the short cycle and simplified cultivation of auto format. Auto Mazar was also the basis for Blue Auto Mazar, where it was crossed with another Dutch Passion legend, the original Blueberry, to produce the Blue Family auto line. The aromatic profile is classic Afghan Kush: earthy, spicy, pungent, with notes of lime and lemon on top — a clean old-school hash aroma sometimes slightly pine-like in haze-leaning phenotypes. The taste matches the nose — earthy Kush and lemon with a slightly pungent edge — producing authentic Afghan hashish character rather than generic auto approximation. This strain grows and flowers best under 20 hours of daily light indoors and produces potent buds that are genuinely not inferior to a photoperiod Kush variety. Dutch Passion remains proud to keep this plant in the collection after all these years — novice growers routinely achieve more than 100 g per plant, experienced growers have pushed well past that, and the current record for a single Auto Mazar plant is 900 g of dry bud. The combination of XL yields, robust genetics, and reliable Kush-character effect has made her one of the most repeatedly-grown autoflowers in the Dutch Passion catalog and one of the most appreciated outdoor strains alongside Auto Ultimate, Auto Euforia, and Auto Duck.
Lemon Cherry Gelato is Barney's Farm's cross of Sunset Sherbet with Girl Scout Cookies — a 60% Indica / 40% Sativa hybrid that produces the highest THC percentage in the Barney's Farm catalog at 33% average. The genetic combination draws from two of the most influential modern American strains: Sunset Sherbet contributes creamy dessert character and vibrant fruit notes; Girl Scout Cookies contributes the resin production, Kush structural backbone, and signature cookie sweetness that defined the Cookie family's rise. The aromatic profile is sweet, citrus, with hints of fresh berries — a clean layered signature — and the palate delivers sweet, lemon, citrus, cherry, and gas notes that reflect the full genetic heritage. The effect is relaxing, uplifting, and euphoric — balanced hybrid territory despite the Indica dominance, where the 33% THC delivers genuine intensity without pure sedation.
LSD Auto is Barney's Farm's potent Indica-dominant autoflower — a cross between the original LSD photoperiod and Super Magnum Auto that preserves the powerful body-centric effect profile of the original while compressing the cycle into the autoflower format. The split is 70% Indica, 30% Sativa, and the aromatic profile sits firmly in classic hash-lineage territory: musky, earthy flower, herbal, skunky, pungent. The palate combines earthy chestnut with mango, citrus, and sweet-and-sour fruit notes — a layered profile that reflects both the LSD parent (known for psychedelic body effects) and the Super Magnum auto contributions. THC averages 24%, which is remarkable for an autoflower and places her near the top of the commercial auto category for pure potency.
Pink Banana Runtz is a limited-edition Indica-dominant USA hybrid from the Antonio by Dutch Passion collection, created by crossing Banana Z — from TerpHogz, the original breeder of the Z genetics — with Gelato #33. Antonio's specific goal with this cross was to develop Runtz genetics with larger flowers and higher yields than traditional Runtz varieties on the market (which often produce smaller buds). The result is a cultivar that produces relatively large buds, especially the main colas, which can reach substantial proportions under good LED lighting. During the vegetative phase the plants are generally compact and bushy, but once flowering begins they undergo a good stretch phase — this allows the main buds to protrude above the canopy, absorb maximum light, and develop genuinely thick dimensions. The strain produces a hybrid bud structure: dense without being fluffy, but not super compact either, which gives her slightly better resistance to higher humidity than ultra-compact strains and makes her suitable for a wide range of conditions.
Slush Mint Cake is Dutch Passion's most potent recent American hybrid — a new USA-inspired cross from the Antonio collection with THC levels averaging 23-27% (peaking higher in ideal conditions), terpene content running 2-2.5% of total flower mass, and a total cannabinoid profile in the 30-35% range that places her among the most powerful strains Dutch Passion has ever released. The lineage is serious: a Slurmint mother crossed with the award-winning Ice Cream Cake genetics, where the Slurmint itself was pheno-hunted from a Slurmint IX cross combining cup-winning Slurricane (Purple Punch x Do-si-dos) with Platinum Kush Mints. The Slurricane contributes compact high-quality flower heritage praised for exceptional bag appeal; the Platinum Kush Mints adds stability; and the Ice Cream Cake genetics bring the creamy dessert character that rounds out the aromatic profile. The combination has already captured the 2025 Highlife Cup's Mostly Indica category, confirming what the lab numbers and consumer feedback had already established. Breeder Antonio has dozens of cannabis cups on record and runs one of Europe's best independent collections of elite genetics; the rigorous pheno-hunting and lab-backed selection approach behind Slush Mint Cake guarantees consistency across the pack, which is unusual for strains this new and this potent. The terpene signature is one of the most pungent and intense Dutch Passion offers — a predominantly candy, gassy, creamy profile with sweet, sour, and fruity notes all expressed simultaneously. The dominant terpenes are limonene, linalool, caryophyllene, myrcene, humulene, and pinene, with substantial amounts of fenchol and terpinolene, and trace amounts of camphene, ocimene, farnesene, nerolidol, and menthone. Half the plants also express small amounts of geraniol. The resulting aroma spans a range — some phenotypes land in real stinky and gassy intense Cali scent territory comparable to GMO-type strains, others lean more toward Ice Cream Cake with fruity forest fruits mixed with cream character. All plants produce hard compact flowers glistening with trichomes, and the visual appeal is genuinely exceptional when matured correctly.
Strawberry Pie Auto is a true Fast Buds delight — a 26% THC Indica-dominant super-producer with delicious aroma and stunning bag appeal. The flowers reek of red berries and cookie dough, and the cultivar boasts unique colors: chunky dense light green buds with pink, purple, and red highlights contrasted against long orange pistils. A fantastic choice for growers seeking a well-rounded relaxing effect with fruity punch — the effects leave you centered and focused without making you too sleepy or sedated. She performs well both indoors and outdoors, and is very resistant to all elements, making her a strong choice for outdoor growers who benefit from bigger yields and colorful buds. An absolute dream for extractors and hash-makers specifically given the insane trichome production.
Amnesia Haze Auto is the autoflowering solution to the biggest practical problem with the original Amnesia strain: flower time. The classic Amnesia, bred in the Netherlands in the 1990s by Hy-Pro Seeds - and known variously as Amnesia, Champagne Haze, The Bomb, and Ultra Haze - needs 11-12 weeks of bloom on average, with some phenos stretching to a full 20 weeks before finishing. That timeline is unworkable for most home growers and commercially impractical. Crossing the original into ruderalis solved it, producing an auto version that keeps the signature euphoric high and spicy-sweet flavor while cutting the cycle dramatically and limiting final height.
Auto Euforia is one of Dutch Passion's most stable and robust autoflowers, combining the genetics of the classic photoperiod Euforia with a carefully selected autoflowering Skunk to produce a Sativa-dominant plant with a genuinely distinctive uplifting euphoric high and XL yield potential. The photoperiod Euforia is an original selection of a 1990s Skunk, specially chosen for its unique euphoric effect, and that stress-busting feel-good character is still the most appreciated feature of both the photoperiod and the automatic genetic lines. Auto Euforia builds on Dutch Passion's broader 1990s Skunk breeding program that also produced Skunk #1, Orange Bud, and Skunk #11 — a pedigree that shows in both the cultivation behavior and the flavor profile. The terpene signature is classic Skunk with sweet and floral overtones: notes of lavender, geranium, and roses layered over earthy, woody, and musky base notes. Like all proper Skunks she can genuinely stink — the aroma is strong, pungent, and penetrating during flowering, especially in the later weeks when trichome production peaks. The taste is slightly more subtle than the aroma — woody, sweet, sometimes fruity — producing a complex smoke experience that Skunk aficionados have welcomed enthusiastically. She's developed a strong reputation shortly after introduction.
Auto Skywalker Haze is currently Dutch Passion's most potent autoflower and one of the strongest autoflower genetics in the world, verified at an average THC percentage of 26.2% — higher than most photoperiod seed strains currently available. The strain deserves respect from experienced smokers: even a small joint hits very hard and keeps you intoxicated for several hours. The genetic lineage goes deep into Dutch Passion's classic catalog: the feminised Skywalker Haze is a cross of the original Skywalker (Mazar x Blueberry) further crossed with Amsterdam Amnesia from the underground Amsterdam scene. That photoperiod Skywalker Haze was then crossed with Auto Amsterdam Amnesia to create Auto Skywalker Haze — a blend of new-school autoflower breeding with old-school Amsterdam Haze genetics that delivers one of the strongest Sativa-dominant autoflower Hazes the industry has produced. The aromatic profile is unmistakable: a powerful pungent fruity character with strong lemon and sweet notes layered over classic spicy Haze. Citrus and Haze notes dominate, and the incredibly firm frosty buds release a sharp lemon-sweet-haze scent as soon as they're handled. The terpene density is high enough that the flavor is a genuine taste explosion — fruity, sour, pungent, citrus-dominant with the pungent spicy Haze character on the back palate. This is a strain for real enthusiasts, not casual smokers — the combination of lab-verified 26.2% THC and the strong Haze-family effect means the high is both intense and quite overwhelming at onset.
Auto Think Different is one of the strains that genuinely triggered the autoflower revolution in commercial cannabis. Introduced almost 10 years ago, she remains the favorite among many home growers worldwide because of the combination of traits that was genuinely rare when she launched: very high yields, strong effect matching quality photoperiod varieties, and a plant that does well in any grow medium and any climate. The lineage comes from a special AK47 hybrid known as AK420, which contributes the fresh and fruity terpene signature that sets her apart from heavier Kush or Haze autos. The aroma is subtle and balanced rather than penetrating — notes of citrus fruit, mint, pine, and sweetness, without the harsh pungency of pure Skunk or Haze parents. It's a refined terpene profile that smokes beautifully, and combined with a high THC content it delivers a strong high even for experienced smokers. Within a year of launch Think Different landed on Dutch Passion's bestseller list, and a decade later it's still there — some loyal fans and serious autoflower growers refuse to grow anything else, which is unusual brand loyalty in a category where newer genetics arrive constantly.
Early Pearl Regular is one of the foundational outdoor sativas in Sensi Seeds' catalog — a 75% sativa, 25% indica strain that was the first sativa-dominant variety developed specifically to thrive in shorter, cooler summers rather than the warm Mediterranean conditions most sativas need. First introduced in the 1980s, she's been a favorite outdoor variety ever since, and her genetics add stability and strength to future hybrids — which is why she's a popular breeding base for growers working on new crosses. Yields on outdoor plants can reach up to 2 kilograms each in the right conditions, making her one of the highest-producing outdoor sativas commercially available. Plants can grow to towering heights, sometimes reaching 4 metres when cultivated outside, with a distinctive scent of orange and pine layered over notes of incense. The high is buoyant, uplifting, and exuberant — pure classic sativa expression.
Fruit Bomb Punch is Dutch Passion's answer to the question of what a truly extreme fruit terpene profile looks like in modern photoperiod cannabis. A strong Sativa-dominant hybrid with one of the most intense and sweet fruit aromas and flavors currently on the market, she's a complete flavor explosion — as soon as flowering begins the intensely sweet scent of a fruit bowl fills the grow room, and the aroma effortlessly overpowers other scents. The name is not an exaggeration: this strain genuinely redefines what "fruity" means in cannabis. The lineage is a fusion of several top genetic lines representing a long-term selection project: Erdbeer IBL x (Tangie x Cherry Pie) BX1 crossed with Dutch Passion's multi-Cup-winning Sugar Bomb Punch. The Fruit Bomb genetics themselves are built on Swiss Erdbeer IBL, a landrace originally developed for outdoor growing and known for sweet fruity strawberry flavor. For years Dutch Passion crossed the fruitiest Erdbeer phenotypes with each other to enhance the profile. During one of these selection rounds an Erdbeer was accidentally pollinated by a female clone of (Tangie x Cherry Pie), and the offspring carried exceptional fruitiness with unprecedented trichome production. That accidental hybrid was crossed with a previously discovered fruity headbanger phenotype, and one plant stood out — extremely heavy blooms, solid trichome layer, and a chemically sweet candy-factory aroma. She was backcrossed with Erdbeer IBL for stability, then crossed with Sugar Bomb Punch to shorten flowering time and boost potency. The result is a masterpiece of modern cannabis breeding.
G13 Haze is Barney's Farm's potent Sativa-dominant hybrid cross of G13 with Hawaiian Sativa — a strain built around the legendary G13 genetics (a line with its own mystique dating back decades) paired with pure Hawaiian Sativa heritage for tropical terpene character and the clean soaring cerebral effect that defines the Hawaiian landrace family. The split is 80% Sativa, 20% Indica, and the aroma and flavor profile reflect the tropical heritage directly: sweet candies, tropical fruit cocktail, and citrus dominate the palate, with a fruity, spicy, berry aromatic signature during growth. THC averages 23%, which is high for a Sativa-dominant strain and produces a powerful effect that's cerebral, uplifting, invigorating, and an active creativity booster.
Ice Cream Haze is Dutch Passion's new-school USA-inspired F1 hybrid — a vigorous, potent Haze-dominant Sativa with 18-22% average THC (peaks up to 25%), XXL yield potential, and a terpene profile combining spicy Haze notes with sweet fruity creamy Gelato and Wedding Cake character from the Ice Cream Cake parent. Available in both feminised and regular cannabis seed formats, the strain was developed years ago by breeder Antonio (35 cannabis cups in the last 7 years) initially as regular seeds, with the feminised version released later after excellent community feedback. The Haze mother comes from a Crockett's Haze selection — a vigorous fast-growing Sativa known for exceptional yields exceeding 750 g/m², with tropical fruit-smelling sticky character and outstanding taste. The Ice Cream Cake pollinators (Gelato x Wedding Cake, both male and female) are vigorous, stable, and quick to root. The mother plant always provides compact, easy-to-cut potent buds with beautiful appearance; the father has strong aroma, powerful branches, good masculine top structure, and very frosty sugar leaves. Combining these two cultivars — one full Sativa, one slightly more Indica-dominant hybrid — creates a truly unique F1 cross suited to lovers of fast-growing plants with generous yields of strong-smelling and strong-tasting weed. The terpene profile is super penetrating and intense: powerful spicy Haze aroma with notes of tropical fruit and smooth thick ice cream. Some phenotypes smell very strongly of spicy-yet-fruity Haze; others lean toward the Ice Cream Cake parent with pungent terpene-rich Gelato genetics (originally from the Cookie Family). The real winners in every pack are plants that combine both profiles in balance — these are the phenos worth keeping and cloning. Taste leans to the Haze side of the spectrum — spicy, fresh, fruity simultaneously — with all phenotypes producing beautiful buds covered in thick trichome layers. The frosty appearance at harvest is genuinely photogenic, and Ice Cream Haze has remarkable bag appeal once dried.
Orange Bud is one of the original Dutch Skunk varieties — a true Cannabis Cup winner discovered during an extensive Skunk selection grow-out in the early 1980s, when Dutch breeders were searching for the fruitiest expression of the family that wouldn't compromise either yield or quality. She quickly became a coffeeshop favourite across the Netherlands for reliably strong smoke paired with a distinct citrus-Skunk taste that set her apart from other Skunk variants of the era. Along with Power Plant and White Widow, Orange Bud is one of the three original cornerstone strains still appearing on coffeeshop menus across the country — a genuine heritage line that has been proven over several decades by thousands of growers and remains one of Dutch Passion's best-sellers. The name comes from the distinctive orange-green bud structure, set off by fiery orange hairs, and the aromas of ripe oranges and nectarines that the terpene profile expresses cleanly from late flower through cure. Available in feminised, autoflowering, and regular seed formats. One cultivation note up front: a small percentage of plants can develop male flowers under severe stress, and growers should check plants thoroughly during flowering to catch any male development before open pollination can compromise the rest of the garden.
Papaya Cookies Auto is a Fast Buds World Champion strain and one of the Best New Strains of 2024 at the Autoflower World Cup. Born from Papaya (Oni Seeds) × Cookies Auto F5, this F5 sativa-dominant hybrid is a flavor-rich resin machine bred for extractors, flavor chasers, and growers who want fast premium results with minimal effort.
Power Flower traces back to the 1990s, when a group of Dutch growers visiting South Africa noticed tall, vigorous native sativas growing in the wild. They brought seeds home to the Netherlands and began breeding for potency and yield, eventually landing on what became Power Plant - one of the defining commercial sativa strains of 1990s Amsterdam. Power Flower is the RQS evolution of that project, a more refined, more potent descendant of the original South African genetic base.
Shaman is a Sativa-dominant outdoor classic from Dutch Passion, built from a cross between an exceptional quality male Purple #1 and a Skunk female — a reliable, potent F1 hybrid that has been in the Dutch Passion catalog for several decades and still attracts new growers each season. Originally developed as a regular seed strain, Shaman is also available as feminised seeds, giving growers a choice of format. The original breeding program crossed an early Skunk with a colorful Purple variety, and the work was perfected when a very robust and easy-to-grow outdoor plant emerged from the selection. Sativa dominance defines the experience — the Sativa side handles growth structure, effect, and most of the aromatic character, with the small Indica proportion contributing to density and compactness where needed. Users describe the aroma as fresh, sweet, spicy, and floral, sometimes with sour notes and a pine undertone across different phenotypes. The taste is mainly sweet and spicy, with some phenotypes leaning more acidic and others expressing a piney, woody character. Green phenotypes usually taste slightly sweeter than the purple phenotype, which is worth noting for growers selecting cuts. Because of the diversity of phenotypes within the line, there's genuinely something for every palate — and for growers who run multiple plants from a single pack, pheno-hunting can reveal genuinely distinct expressions of the strain. The most striking visual trait is the purple coloration: about 50% of plants develop pink/purple tones in the flowers, ranging from light pink through rich violet to almost-black dark purple depending on phenotype and temperature. On certain phenotypes even the flower hairs go pink or purple instead of the usual orange or brown, which produces some of the most photogenic outdoor cannabis flower in the Dutch Passion lineup.
Royal Queen Seeds' take on the Super Silver Haze lineage — Haze x Skunk x Northern Lights — a cross whose story really begins in the 1970s, when a pair of American brothers started collecting and breeding sativas from Colombia, Mexico, Thailand, and South India. After thousands of seeds and years of work they isolated the clean, soaring cerebral effect that came to define the entire Haze family. When those genetics eventually reached Amsterdam alongside the now-classic Skunk lines, two Dutch breeders set out to solve Haze's main problem: the flowering time was too long to be commercial. Crossing Haze with Skunk and Northern Lights gave them Super Silver Haze, the first Haze variety with indica-scale flowering and Cannabis Cup pedigree. Shining Silver Haze is RQS's version of that line, a two-time winner of the Highlife Cannabis Cup in the Bio Haze category and a well-respected sativa among growers who want Haze character without the commitment of a four-month bloom.
