Auto Lavender Feminized Seeds by CBD Seeds
Auto Lavender is a feminized autoflowering cannabis seed from CBD Seeds that delivers the original Lavender's distinctive terpene profile — lavender and mint — in a compact, self-flowering plant. Bred directly from stabilised Lavender genetics, this auto produces a resin-heavy central cola of 20–30cm without any light schedule adjustments. Three feminized seeds per pack, flowering complete in 9–10 weeks from seed.
Why Auto Lavender Seeds Stand Out
Auto Lavender feminized seeds produce a plant that genuinely smells and tastes like its photoperiod parent — and that's rarer than you'd think in the autoflower world. CBD Seeds stabilised this cross directly from original Lavender genetics, not some third-generation approximation. The result is a sturdy, thick-stemmed plant that channels most of its energy into one dominant central bud measuring 20–30cm. That main cola alone makes the grow worthwhile.
The trichome coverage is what caught our attention. For an autoflower, the resin output is heavy — not just on the tops, but flooding the entire plant down to the lower branches. Once you cure the harvested buds, the aroma opens up into fresh lavender with rosemary undertones. Smoke it, and you get that same lavender character with a clean mint finish on the exhale. It's distinctive enough that you'd pick it out blind from a lineup of ten jars. We've seen plenty of autos that promise flavour and deliver hay. This one actually follows through.
The honest limitation? Yield is average. Auto Lavender isn't going to fill your jars the way a high-yielding auto like an Auto Critical or Auto Northern Lights would. If you're chasing weight, this isn't your strain. But if you're growing for flavour and resin quality first, the trade-off makes sense. Think of it as a boutique grow — smaller harvest, but every gram is worth keeping.
Auto Lavender Terpene Profile and Aroma
The terpene combination in Auto Lavender is what sets it apart from the bulk of the autoflower catalogue. Fresh lavender dominates the nose, backed by rosemary and a herbal sweetness that deepens during curing. On the inhale, you get floral lavender; on the exhale, a cool mint finish that lingers. It's a genuinely complex flavour for a 9–10 week auto.
Interestingly, the lavender terpene profile (dominated by linalool) has attracted attention in botanical research beyond cannabis. According to a review published in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, lavender essential oil from Lavandula angustifolia is traditionally used and approved by the European Medicines Agency as herbal medicine to relieve stress and anxiety (PMC5437114). And according to a 2023 review in Frontiers in Pharmacology, human experiments assessing the properties of lavender oil aromatherapy showed increases in sleep time and improvements in sleep quality (PMC10079719). That's the botanical lavender plant, not cannabis — but the shared linalool terpene is what gives Auto Lavender buds their characteristic scent.
A 2023 systematic review also noted that Lavandula angustifolia essential oil has an extensive anecdotal history of anxiolytic benefit that has recently been supported by clinical efficacy studies (PMC6007527). Again — that's the plant, not the cannabis strain. But if you're drawn to lavender aromatics, the linalool-heavy terpene profile in these buds is the real deal.

How to Grow Auto Lavender Feminized Seeds
- Germinate your Auto Lavender feminized seeds using the paper towel method or directly in a small pot of moist, airy substrate. Taproots typically emerge within 24–72 hours.
- Transplant seedlings into their final container early — 7–11 litre fabric pots work well. Autos don't like root disturbance mid-grow, so avoid multiple transplants.
- Run an 18/6 or 20/4 light schedule from start to finish. No light change is needed to trigger flowering — the autoflowering genetics handle that on their own.
- Keep feeding moderate. Auto Lavender builds thick stems and sturdy branches naturally, but overfeeding during the first 3 weeks is the fastest way to stunt an auto. Start at half-strength nutrients and increase once flowering begins.
- Watch the central cola develop from around week 4–5. The main bud stretches to 20–30cm and packs on resin through weeks 7–10. Support the main stem if it starts to lean under its own weight — a simple bamboo stake does the job.
- Harvest when trichomes shift from clear to milky-white, typically at the 9–10 week mark. Cure for at least 2 weeks to bring out the full lavender and rosemary aroma.

Who Should Grow Auto Lavender
This strain is built for growers who prioritise flavour and resin quality over sheer weight. If you've grown a dozen autos and they all tasted the same — green, grassy, forgettable — Auto Lavender is the antidote. The terpene profile is specific enough that you'll actually want to cure it properly and savour the result.
It's also a solid pick for small-space growers. The compact structure and thick stems mean it holds itself up without elaborate training or support systems. Stick three seeds in a 60x60 tent, run them on 20/4, and you'll have cured buds in your jars within 11–12 weeks from cracking the pack. No light schedule changes, no sexing, no fuss.
If you're chasing maximum grams per watt, look elsewhere — an Auto Critical+ or Auto Northern Lights will outproduce this strain every time. But if you open a jar and want to actually enjoy what you smell, Auto Lavender earns its spot. We'd grow this one for personal stash, not for bulk.
Auto Lavender vs Other Lavender Autos
The original Lavender strain traces back to a cross of Super Skunk, Afghani, Hawaiian, and South Asian indica genetics — a complex lineage that explains the unusual terpene combination. Most "Lavender autos" on the market are loose approximations that borrow the name but not the full genetic profile. CBD Seeds stabilised Auto Lavender directly from the original Lavender parent, which is why the flavour actually holds up. You can tell from the growth structure: the thick stems and sturdy branching pattern mirror the photoperiod version, just compressed into a 9–10 week autoflowering cycle.

| Yield | Average | Average to above-average |
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Auto Lavender take from seed to harvest?
9–10 weeks from germination to harvest. That includes both vegetative growth and flowering — no light schedule change needed. Add 2 weeks of curing for the best terpene expression, so you're looking at roughly 11–12 weeks total from seed to smokeable bud.
Does Auto Lavender actually smell like lavender?
Yes — genuinely. The cured buds carry a clear lavender and rosemary aroma, with a mint finish when smoked. This isn't marketing fluff; the linalool-dominant terpene profile is inherited directly from the original Lavender genetics. It's one of the few autos where the name matches the nose.
What yield can I expect from Auto Lavender feminized seeds?
Yield is average for an autoflower. You won't break any records, but the resin quality and terpene profile make up for the moderate weight. If maximum yield is your priority, a high-producing auto like Auto Critical+ is a better fit.
Do I need to change the light schedule for Auto Lavender?
No. Auto Lavender is a true autoflower — it transitions to flowering based on age, not light hours. Run 18/6 or 20/4 from start to finish. No switching to 12/12 required.
How many seeds come in a pack of Auto Lavender?
Three feminized autoflowering seeds per pack. All seeds are feminized, so every plant that germinates will produce flowers — no males to cull.
Is Auto Lavender good for small grow spaces?
Very. The compact structure and thick stems keep the plant manageable without heavy training. Three plants fit comfortably in a 60x60cm tent. The 20–30cm central cola develops vertically, so you need more headroom than floor space.
What's the best way to bring out the lavender terpenes?
Cure properly — at least 2 weeks in sealed glass jars, burping daily for the first week. The lavender and rosemary notes intensify significantly during curing. Rushing the dry or skipping the cure is the fastest way to lose the terpene profile you grew this strain for.
