Below, we run down the fastest growing autoflower strains from Fast Buds. If speed is what you're after, you'll find it here. Also, don't forget to check out our guide detailing the best time to harvest autoflowering cannabis.

This compact slightly Indica-dominant autoflowering strain displays a royal purple color that blows us away every time. Its spicy, woody, and peppery aroma comes from a complex potpourri of terpenes that contribute to giving this Indica strain more of a balanced hybrid high.

5. Banana Purple Punch Auto
We mentioned that our autoflowers typically mature in 8 to 10 weeks, but Banana Purple Punch Auto is anything but typical. It's quite rare to encounter a seed from this strain that takes more than eight weeks, and we've even seen a few talented growers chop this plant down in the seventh week. Banana Purple Punch Auto is perfect for beginners who want to learn quickly and experienced growers who want to push a strain to its limit. The plant's short height also makes it ideal for stealth/indoor cultivators.

If you are looking for a quick grow cycle without affecting the quality and quantity of the harvest, look no further! These are the fastest strains that take no more than 9 weeks, allowing you to grow top-quality buds in less than 65 days! Also, don't forget that growing some longer-cycle autoflowers in smaller pots is another way to end up with plants that finish faster. The results might be not as generous but quite enough to get a good idea of how a strain smokes and tastes. So, feel free to experiment with other Fast Buds autoflowers as well.
