What is the genetics behind Pineapple Express XXL Auto?
To incorporate the genes that contribute to automatic flowering, the breeders of the PEV Bank bank crossed a clone from the USA of Pineapple Express with their Haze XXL Auto. In this way it also acquires great speed of development, high yield and strength in general, allowing you to grow faster in less time.
The original clone comes from the west coast of the USA, although it has been in Europe for several years and we know that it came from Hawaii, where a local grower crossed the Hawaiian Kona Gold with the modern Trainwreck seeds that had arrived on the island in that moment.
What is this plant like in general terms?
Although the most remarkable thing is its original tropical flavor and aroma, it must be said that it is a very complete strain. They are special seeds for inexperienced growers who want to achieve a great harvest without much effort, due to their high resistance, well above the average.
It grows both vertically and on the sides, forming in a short time a large plant mass with many branches that develop quite geometric. It begins to flower spontaneously after about 25 days of life, but continues to grow until practically 2 months, hence its large final size.
Once the first trichomes begin to appear, you begin to understand their world fame, and the aroma that emanates is very difficult to find, believe me that there are few varieties in the world with such peculiar terpenes.
How is Pineapple Express XXL Auto grown?
If you are going to grow it indoors, we recommend that you give it long light cycles, since it is the best way to get the most out of this plant's performance. A photoperiod of 20 hours of light and 4 of darkness each day is ideal, constant from germination to harvest. Indoors you can put 9 plants / m2 in 11-liter pots, without transplants, but without soaking the entire pot until the plant is at least 3 weeks old.
Outdoors depending on the environmental conditions you have in your area you can harvest Pineapple Express XXL Auto up to 4 times each year. In general, it likes a warm or temperate climate better, but the cold does not stop it unless the temperature drops below 12º C. In this case it is better to plant in pots of more than 20 liters, and if you want of maximum production in summer, sow in a container of more than 50 liters, or directly in mother earth.
