Pound Town Auto is aptly named. Humboldt Seed Company built this sativa-leaning autoflower for yield, combining the production, vigor and bud density of its well-known Magic Melon Autoflower into a cultivar that is easy to grow yet seriously productive, finishing in 75-85 days from germination.
The breeder set out to create autoflower lines that can stand up to its photoperiods, both literally and figuratively, and Pound Town is one of the results. It suits large-scale production just as well as a classic backyard grow.
The aroma is loud: fuel and OG-type terpenes layered with caramel apple and melon funk. The flavor follows as gassy and sweet, and the green flowers often show purple highlights as they mature.
With a 40% indica / 60% sativa balance, the effect is listed as euphoric and uplifting. Growers can expect moderate phenotypic variation, while the line itself is listed as Bx3 S2 and rated highly vigorous.

Growing Pound Town Auto Indoors and Outdoors
Pound Town Auto blooms automatically, so keep indoor lights at 18/6 or 20/4 for the entire run. The breeder lists 75-85 days from germination to harvest. Its highly vigorous growth means it can fill space quickly, so give it room and good airflow.
Start seeds in final containers of 5 gallons (19 L) or more to support the vigorous root system. Light LST spreads the canopy and helps the dense buds develop evenly. Avoid heavy pruning during the short cycle.
Humboldt Seed Company rates performance as high in greenhouses, light-deprivation setups and outdoors. Outdoors, sow after the last frost for a summer harvest, then follow with a second round where the season allows.
