Red Velvet Auto by Paradise Seeds

Red Velvet Auto Strain Info

Ever seen a cannabis plant so colorful it looks like it was dipped in a velvet smoothie?

Red Velvet Auto from Paradise Seeds is exactly that — a stunning blend of red, purple, and green hues wrapped in layers of frosty resin that scream potency and flavor.

This beauty comes from a juicy genetic mix: Lemon Cherry Gelato x Piña Açaí x Auto Kong #4, and trust us, you can taste every drop of that exotic cocktail.

Lemon Cherry Gelato brings the sweet citrus and cherry vibes, while Piña Açaí drops in a tropical punch and a spicy whisper — it's like fruit salad with attitude.

Then Auto Kong #4 steps in like the muscle of the family, adding autoflowering traits and cranking up the resin production to wild levels.

Visually, she grows like a chandelier, with a chunky central cola surrounded by thick, cone-shaped buds that look like they’ve been rolled in sugar.

She stretches more than your morning yoga — reaching between 120 to 150 cm (3.9 to 4.9 ft) indoors — and doesn’t hold back outdoors either, especially under strong summer sun.

There are two phenos to keep an eye on: one flaunts deep purple colors while the other stays more on the green side — either way, both are showstoppers.

Flowering Time & Yield

Red Velvet Auto doesn’t keep you waiting forever.

Thanks to her autoflowering cannabis seeds nature, she sprints from seed to harvest without relying on light cycles.

Indoor growers can expect between 400–450 grams per m² (14.1–15.9 oz/yd²) of chunky, frosted buds that look like they came straight out of a candy shop.

Outside, in sunny conditions, she delivers a solid 100–125 grams per plant (3.5–4.4 oz), and she handles cooler, temperate climates better than most divas in the autoflower world.

Effects and Aroma

With over 22% THC, this one doesn’t just knock politely — she kicks the door down with a euphoric entrance.

But don’t be fooled by her indica lean — the effect is surprisingly energizing, focused, and social.

Perfect for a creative day, a chill hangout, or finally getting around to that project you’ve been putting off.

It's the kind of high that makes everything feel a little brighter, a little easier — anti-stress and anti-anxiety baked right into every puff.

And oh, the aroma… imagine opening a jar of lemon zest and cherry candy, then catching a warm breeze of creamy cinnamon spice riding underneath.

That’s the Myrcene and Limonene working their magic, with Caryophyllene tossing in a hint of cinnamon for depth and character.

The flavor follows through — sweet, creamy, a little spicy — like a dessert you’d never want to end.

Grow Tips & What Stands Out

If you're growing Red Velvet Auto, our advice is simple — let her stretch.

This strain loves space, so don’t cram her in a tight corner or she’ll sulk instead of shine.

Although she's an autoflower, giving her one solid topping early on can help shape her into a bushier beast with multiple arms of dense buds.

She thrives in warm, sunny climates but holds her own surprisingly well in more temperate zones too — perfect for outdoor grows in mid-summer.

We’ve seen her handle mold and humidity like a pro, thanks to her airy structure and strong genetics.

She’s not invincible, but her natural resistance to common pests and diseases makes her a safe bet for growers looking for fewer headaches.

Honestly, what really grabs our attention is her looks — those bold red and purple shades aren’t just pretty, they’re mesmerizing.

This is the kind of strain that turns heads in the grow room and gets conversations going just by standing there.

We’d say she lands in the medium category when it comes to grow difficulty — manageable for beginners, but with enough personality to keep seasoned growers entertained.

Red Velvet Auto FAQ

Is Red Velvet Auto sativa or indica?

Red Velvet Auto is an indica-leaning hybrid with a 60/40 ratio, meaning it combines relaxing indica traits with a spark of sativa energy.

Indicas tend to offer a heavier body high and are great for unwinding, while sativas are known for their uplifting, cerebral effects.

This strain lands right in the sweet spot — offering focus, energy, and clarity with a touch of body relaxation that won’t slow you down.

How tall does Red Velvet Auto grow?

Indoors, Red Velvet Auto typically reaches between 120 and 150 cm (3.9 to 4.9 ft), which is tall for an autoflowering strain.

She stretches during her growth phase, so vertical space management is key if you're growing in a tent or cabinet.

Can I grow Red Velvet Auto outdoors in a cooler climate?

Yes, Red Velvet Auto performs well in temperate regions as long as she gets plenty of mid-summer sun and stays dry enough to avoid mold.

Her solid resistance to humidity and pests makes her a good candidate for growers in northern or unpredictable climates.

Does Red Velvet Auto need pruning?

Because she grows fast and has an autoflowering lifecycle, heavy pruning isn’t recommended.

However, topping her once early in the vegetative phase can help spread out growth and increase yield on side branches.

What do the buds of Red Velvet Auto look like?

The buds are chunky and dense, shaped like pine cones, and often show off brilliant red and purple tones depending on the phenotype.

They're covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give the flowers a frosty, almost glittery appearance.
