Quick Bud
Cannabis Strain by AC Genetics
Introduction
Quick Bud from AC Genetics (Autoflowering Cannabis Genetics) represents the Dutch breeder's dedicated focus on autoflowering strains, completing seed-to-harvest in 68 days. AC Genetics specializes entirely in ruderalis-hybrid genetics, refining autoflowering characteristics while improving yields, potency, and terpene profiles that early autoflowers lacked.
Lineage
The straightforward "Quick Bud" naming emphasizes the primary selling point: speed. Autoflowering genetics incorporate Cannabis ruderalis from Central/Eastern Europe, creating plants that flower based on age rather than photoperiod changes. This allows outdoor growers in short-season climates to complete multiple crops or harvest before autumn challenges arrive.
Terpenes
Terpene profiles in early-generation autoflowers often received less breeding attention than photoperiod varieties, with breeders prioritizing the autoflowering trait itself. Quick Bud likely expresses moderate terpene content—identifiable cannabis character without the intensity of terpene-focused selections.
Growth
Cultivation follows autoflowering protocols: consistent light schedules (18-20 hours throughout), minimal training stress, avoid transplanting. The 68-day timeline allows reasonable development while maintaining quick-turnaround advantages.
Effects
Effects from ruderalis hybrids typically land in mild-to-moderate territory. The indica/sativa/ruderalis mix determines whether effects lean relaxing, energizing, or balanced.
Documentation
AC Genetics continues operating from Netherlands, maintaining exclusive autoflowering focus as the category gained mainstream acceptance.
