Hempstar Auto: A Star is Born
Hempstar Auto seeds grow into medium to tall plants that are vibrant in color. The bright green leaves are short and small but they are effective at catching sunlight and providing the plants with the energy they need to grow. The leaves and buds are coated in dusty white trichomes that make the plant appear as if it has been dipped in sweet sugar. Booking closely at the buds you can clearly see bright orange pistils or hairs growing from the top. The flash of color is easy to see against the green and white backdrop of this cannabis plant. The harvested nuggets are pale green with amber hairs poking through the surface. The potent aroma is evident the second you break these nuggets apart with your fingers. Keep in mind that the resiny trichomes will stay on the buds through harvest. While Hempstar hasn’t taken home any major awards it is well-known on the cannabis scene as a top ten auto-flower variety. The reason behind its popularity is its ease of growth and mix of delicious flavors and aromas. It is a strong strain that users seem to really dig. Growers and users love this strain for a myriad of reasons.
Growing Tips for Our Seeds
These autoflower seeds are easy to grow indoors and outdoors even for the newbies. The basic needs of these seeds are sunshine and consistent feeding of nutrients. It is recommended to place seeds in a sunny area or beneath a grow light for 18 hours per day. Cannabis connoisseurs suggest regular water but not over-watering. Water is enough to keep the soil moist and wet. In about 8 to 10 weeks, the plant should begin to bud. Hempstar Autoflowering seeds are of high quality. Considered a low-maintenance strain, it produces a moderate harvest.
Dial in Your Growing Conditions
- Indoor or Outdoor: Hempstar Auto cannabis plants can be grown indoors and outdoors by all levels of growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 60-80 degrees Fahrenheit. This strain of cannabis requires 18 hours of light during the vegetative stage. It does not require a change in the light cycle to induce flowering as it is an auto-flowering strain. It will flower on its own and be ready for harvest after a short flowering stage.
- Moisture control: In terms of humidity levels, you’ll want to set it at 50-70% during the vegetative growth stage. Keeping your humidity levels around 40-50% through the flowering stage will help keep mold and bud rot off of your plants.
- Training Techniques: Topping and Low-stress Training (LST) are the best options or methods for this strain. These methods will keep the canopy in check and allow light and air to circulate through the top of the plant and into the bottom towards the soil. This will ultimately create an even grow and increase your yields come harvest time.

Used the water-soak method for 24 hours. All four seeds had tails before they even hit the soil. 10/10 vitality.

I did some light tying down and the side branches really took off. This strain is very cooperative with light training to increase yields.

Harvested at 11 weeks exactly. Perfect.

Grew these in pots on my terrace. They stayed discreet but still produced a fantastic amount of bud. No need for complicated light deprivation setups!
Brandon Knox Verified Buyer
These autos are tough. I accidentally left the window open during a cold snap, but they didn’t show any signs of stress. Very hardy seeds.

Captures the spirit of Hempstar perfectly. It’s got that classic Sativa look but in a compact, easy-to-grow format.
Patrick Olson Verified Buyer
Ran these indoors during a cold snap. The plants stayed resilient and the cold even brought out some nice silver tones in the leaves.
N.Khatri Verified Buyer
Surprisingly loud for an auto.
