Recon Auto: Joyfully Sweet
Recon Auto seeds grow into short but powerful plants with long green leaves and pistil-covered buds. Looking closely at the plants, you can see that the top leaves and buds are coated in white crystal trichomes, making it a super sticky strain. The harvested nuggets are mostly orange with green poking out. They are dense, and when broken apart, they fill the room with a sweet, pungent aroma. Recon Auto has a few popular awards on its mantle, including a third-place finish in the Outdoor Category at the 2010 Spannabis Cannabis Champions Cup. It also finished 2nd at the South African Cup, making this strain internationally renowned and award-winning. Boasting an amazing resume, this strain of cannabis is popping up in more grow ops every day. Growers and users simply love Recon Auto.
Growing Tips for Our Seeds
Difficult to grow, it thrives best in humid, warm, or Mediterranean-like temperatures. It is highly recommended to plant these seeds at the beginning of summer. While the strain grows well both indoors and out, it is best handled by a Master level grower. The plant is tough to grow and shouldn’t be grown for the first time by beginner cultivators. Carefully monitor humidity levels because of vulnerability to mold, mildew, and root rot. The seeds typically sprout pretty quickly, so the grow itself really doesn’t take that long from start to finish.
Dial in Your Growing Conditions
- Indoor or Outdoor: Recon Auto cannabis seeds can be grown indoors and outdoors by very experienced growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is between 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit. An 18-hour light cycle is required during the vegetative stage. Maintain the same cycle throughout since the strain is autoflowering; it doesn’t require a change in light to induce flowering.
- Moisture control: Maintain a humidity level of around 40-60% through the vegetative stage and then lower the humidity levels to between 40-50% into the flowering stage.
- Training Techniques: Low-stress training and topping are the best training techniques for this strain. Both of these methods will increase your yield and produce dense buds. Make sure that light reaches all levels of the plant, from top to bottom.
The Germination Game Plan
Before you even plant your Recon Auto female cannabis plants, you will first need to germinate these seeds. To do so, refer to our free germination guide, knowing that they are backed by our impressive 90% germination guarantee.
Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest
- Flowering Time: With indoor grow, you can expect the Recon Auto strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 55-65 days. With outdoor growing, it should be harvest-ready sometime around mid-to-late September.
- Yields: While Indoor yields are around 300 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 500 grams per plant. These yield figures are spectacular, considering the amount of work it takes to bring this strain to harvest.
Dominant Terpenes in Recon Auto: Minty Sweet
The Recon Auto terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is myrcene, while pinene and beta-caryophyllene are the secondary terpenes.
- Myrcene: Most Dominant – Musky, earthy aroma. Enhances the strain’s sedative effects.
- Beta-Caryophyllene: Secondary Terpene – Found in cloves, oregano, cinnamon, and hops.
- Pinene: Pine-like Scent – Found in pine needles as well as cannabis.
Dominant Cannabinoids in Recon Auto:
Cannabinoids play an important role in Recon Auto seeds and are generally a huge part of most cannabis strains. That euphoric, happy, and relaxed feeling you get when enjoying the Recon Auto strain is due to its dominant cannabinoids. Each cannabinoid does something different to the user.
- THC: The Main Character – THC is the most dominant cannabinoid on the molecular level of this strain. The crystalline compound tetrahydrocannabinol is the main ingredient of cannabis. Topping out at 22%, the THC in this Indica-dominant strain is responsible for the happy and euphoric feeling you get when enjoying Recon Auto cannabis.
- CBD: Very Minimal Amounts – While the CBD levels in Recon Auto are around 1%, the cannabinoid is still present, and the effects are noticeable in this strain. CBD plays a smaller role in what the strain does to the user. CBD is non-psychoactive.

They were all visually impressive, with a rich coloration and a sturdy texture, indicating their viability. The germination process was straightforward; I followed the standard soak and paper towel method. Within just a couple of days, I saw tiny sprouts pushing through, which was incredibly exciting.
