VIP Auto Mix

VIP Auto Mix Cannabis Seeds — Every Pack a Lucky Dip

VIP Auto Mix is a randomised selection of autoflowering cannabis seeds from VIP Seeds, packed for growers who want genetic variety without buying five separate packs. Each pack contains 3 seeds drawn from across the VIP Seeds autoflowering catalogue, so you get a spread of indica-leaning, sativa-leaning, and hybrid genetics in a single purchase. Think of it as a sampler platter — you grow them all, find your favourite, then go back for a full pack of that strain.

We've carried VIP Seeds for a while now, and the auto mix is one of those products that keeps quietly selling because it solves a real problem: indecision. If you've been scrolling through strain descriptions for an hour and still can't commit, this cuts through the noise. You plant what you get, and the garden does the deciding for you.

Who Should Grow VIP Auto Mix Seeds

This mix works best if you grow for personal use and you like rotating what you smoke. Rather than harvesting 500 grams of the same strain and getting bored by week three, you end up with two or three distinct plants — different aromas, different effects, different bag appeal. It is also a smart first purchase if you are new to VIP Seeds and want to test their genetics before committing to a single strain at full pack price.

Commercial growers looking to stock a varied menu will find value here too. Because the seeds span VIP Seeds' autoflowering range, you could end up with strains that lean towards a strong cerebral effect alongside others that deliver a heavier body stone. According to research published in PMC (Hierarchical Chemotaxonomic Differentiation in Cannabis), total THC content across cannabis cultivars can range from 0.41% to 15.64%, which gives you a sense of how much variety can exist even within a single seed bank's catalogue.

Growing VIP Auto Mix — What to Expect in Your Tent

Because you are growing multiple unknown strains in the same space, expect variation. Plant heights will differ — one might stay squat at 50cm while another stretches past 80cm. Aromas will clash in the best possible way: you might get a fruity terpene profile next to something skunky and diesel-forward. Grow times land between 60 and 80 days on average, but individual plants in the same batch may finish a week apart. This is normal for a mixed pack and actually keeps harvest day interesting rather than monotonous.

The autoflowering genetics mean you do not need to fiddle with light schedules. Run 18/6 or 20/4 from seed to harvest and let the internal clock of each plant handle the transition to flowering. This makes the VIP Auto Mix a solid pick for growers running a simple tent setup without a separate veg and flower room.

One honest limitation: you will not know exactly what you are growing until the plants start showing their character in flower. If you are the type who likes to dial in strain-specific nutrients and training techniques, the mystery element might frustrate you. For everyone else, it is part of the fun.

How to Grow VIP Auto Mix Seeds

1. Germinate your seeds using the paper towel method or directly in a small pot of moist, aerated soil. Taproots typically emerge within 24–72 hours.
2. Transplant seedlings into their final containers early — autoflowers do not respond well to late transplanting. A 10–15 litre fabric pot is a good middle ground for most auto strains.
3. Set your light schedule to 18 hours on, 6 hours off. Keep this consistent from seedling stage through to harvest. Some growers push to 20/4 for extra growth, but 18/6 gives the plants a rest period without sacrificing much yield.
4. Feed lightly during the first two weeks, then ramp up as the plants enter vegetative growth. Switch to a bloom-focused nutrient once you see the first pistils forming — typically around week 3–4.
5. Monitor each plant individually. Because the mix contains different genetics, one plant may drink more water or show nutrient sensitivity that another does not. Label your pots so you can track behaviour.
6. Harvest each plant when its trichomes shift from clear to milky-white, with around 10–20% turning amber. Since strains in the mix will finish at different times, stagger your harvest rather than chopping everything on the same day.

VIP Auto Mix Yield and Environment

VIP Seeds quotes yields in excess of 500g/m2 for their autoflowering range, and that figure holds up under decent indoor lighting — think 400W HPS or a quality 200W+ LED in a well-ventilated 1m2 space. Outdoors, you will need a warm climate with consistent sunlight; autoflowers do not need specific day length, but they still need intensity. A greenhouse splits the difference nicely, giving you climate protection without sacrificing natural light.

For context, a 60-day autoflower finishing at 500g/m2 is moving fast. That is roughly 8.3 grams per square metre per day of grow time — competitive with many photoperiod strains that take 12+ weeks in flower alone. The trade-off is that individual autoflower plants tend to be smaller, so you pack more of them into the same footprint to hit those numbers. Three plants in a 60x60cm tent is tight but doable; a 80x80cm or larger gives each plant room to branch out.

Sensory Notes — What Comes Out of the Jar

Since this is a mixed pack, describing a single flavour profile is impossible — and that is the whole point. Based on what VIP Seeds has in their autoflowering lineup, you can expect anything from sweet, berry-forward terpene profiles to earthy, pine-heavy strains with a fuel-like undertone. The nose on each plant will develop differently during the cure, so keep your jars separate and labelled. After 2–3 weeks of curing in glass jars at around 60% humidity, the terpene profiles really start to distinguish themselves.

The smoke itself will vary just as much. Some strains in the mix will burn clean and white, others may be denser and require a slower draw. If you are rolling, grind consistency matters more with a mixed stash — some buds will be stickier than others, so adjust your grind accordingly.

Cannabinoid Variety in a Mixed Seed Pack

One of the underappreciated benefits of growing a mixed pack is cannabinoid diversity. Not every strain in the VIP Auto Mix will have the same THC-to-CBD ratio. According to research on chemotaxonomic differentiation in cannabis (PMC13074809), total THC across cultivars ranged from 0.41% to 15.64% and total CBD from trace amounts to significant percentages. That kind of spread means your three plants could each deliver a noticeably different experience — from a clear-headed, functional effect to a heavier, more sedating stone.

Research published in PMC (Effects of Cannabinoids on Intestinal Motility, PMC11203611) also notes that when dealing with a mixture of THC and CBD, attributing a particular effect to one substance or the other is challenging. This is worth keeping in mind when you are comparing your harvested strains side by side — the overall experience is shaped by the full cannabinoid and terpene profile, not just the THC number. According to a study on oxidative stress and cannabinoids (PMC7690570), THC showed high potency in combating oxidative stress in vitro, while CBD did not show remarkable antioxidant activity in the same models — a reminder that these compounds behave differently and the mix you end up growing will reflect that.
