Thin Mint Auto by Mavericks Genetics is a quick, Indica-dominant autoflower from the breeder’s Superior Auto line, combining Thin Mint Crack with an unknown Ruderalis. It offers sweet fruit and cool mint flavor, THC levels of 22-23% and a refined, creamy aroma.
The buds are compact and resin-rich, showing green to purple tones, and total terpenes reach about 2.60%. Mavericks Genetics lists a six to seven week flowering phase, with harvest roughly 8-9 weeks after sprouting, making it one of the fastest options in the range.
As an autoflower, it needs no change in light schedule to begin blooming, which makes Thin Mint Auto an easy fit for beginners, small spaces and growers who want several harvests in a season.
Thin Mint Auto Genetics
Thin Mint Crack brings the minty sweetness and compact, frosty flowers associated with the Thin Mint Cookies family. The Ruderalis partner, whose exact origin the breeder does not name, adds the autoflowering trait and extra resilience.
The breeder lists the makeup as 65% Indica, 30% Sativa and 5% Ruderalis, with a 99% feminization rate. Plants stay compact with a central cola and short side branches.
Aroma, Flavor and Effect
The aroma is sweet and fruity with subtle creamy undertones and a cool mint edge that becomes more noticeable after grinding. The smoke is smooth and balanced, with sweet fruit on the inhale and a refreshing minty finish.
The effect leans Indica: a calm, comfortable body feel paired with a gentle, pleasant mood lift. With THC at 22-23%, it is potent for an autoflower, so newer consumers should start slowly.
Its smooth character suits relaxed afternoons and easygoing evenings.
Growing Thin Mint Auto Indoors and Outdoors
Indoors, keep a steady 18/6 or 20/4 light schedule from germination to harvest. Under good lighting, Thin Mint Auto can reach about 450 g/m² (1.47 oz/ft²). Sow straight into the final pot and use only light LST in the first weeks.
Outdoors, a well-grown plant can produce up to 250 g (8.8 oz) per plant. Its fast cycle allows several sowings between spring and late summer in many US regions, and an early finish helps avoid autumn rain.
Because autos have little time to recover from mistakes, skip high-impact training and late defoliation. Steady feeding and good airflow are enough to bring out its sweet, minty terpenes.
