Dark Devil Auto comes from Big Devil XL Auto and an exotic purple autoflowering genetic line with ancestry from Chitral in Pakistan’s Hindu Kush. The combination delivers vigorous hybrid growth, fast development, abundant resin, and dramatic pigmentation.
Sweet Seeds bred this autoflowering variety as SWS38.
Its structure sits between Indica and Sativa, with a sturdy main stem, numerous side branches, and one large central cola. Around 95% of specimens develop red-purple flowers. The buds and nearby leaves can become heavily coated in thick, conspicuous resin.
This Autoflowering cultivar goes from germination to harvest in about 8½ weeks. Dark Devil Auto seeds also earned first prize for “Auto of the Year” at the 2014 Soft Secrets High Life Cup.
We really like this strain because it does more than look unusual. You get bold effects, an expressive aroma, memorable flavor, and a short lifecycle in the same package.
Effects
With 15–20% THC and around 0.9% CBD, Dark Devil Auto produces vivid psychoactive stimulation alongside a soft, comforting body relaxation.
The mental side feels animated and engaging, while the physical side helps ease tension. Think of it as a bright current running through the mind while the body sinks into a comfortable old chair.
We think that balance gives Dark Devil Auto much of its charm. The stimulating cerebral character and softer physical relaxation work together without either side completely dominating the experience.
Flavor
Dark Devil Auto starts on the sweeter side. Fruit leads the experience, while citrus brings a fresher edge. Incense, spice, and wood sit underneath and make the profile feel deeper rather than simply sugary.
The flavor rolls across the palate like fruit spilling onto warm wood beside a curl of incense smoke. It is layered, persistent, and pleasantly unusual.
The fruity brightness keeps things lively, while incense and woody notes add weight. Dark Devil Auto combines sweet fruit, citrus, incense, spice, and wood into a distinctive aromatic profile.
