Recon Auto

The genetic expression of Recon — a 60/40 hybrid — varies meaningfully across phenotypes. Most seeds from this line produce the dominant phenotype: a moderate frame that branches well and produces evenly developed colas with a mix of density and airflow. But expect variation — roughly 1 in 4 plants will lean more strongly in one parental direction, which is part of what makes pheno-hunting this strain interesting. THC testing at 20%% across phenotypes, with Caryophyllene consistently dominant.

The dominant phenotype — which appears in roughly 70-75% of seeds — produces a balanced frame that takes to training intuitively. The branching pattern suggests hybrid vigor — aggressive enough to fill space without becoming unmanageable. Flower structure falls between dense and airy, which provides a good balance of bag appeal and mold resistance.

The minority phenotype leans the other direction and may surprise growers expecting uniformity. Flowering completes in 8-10 weeks across phenotypes. Yield: 400-500g/m² indoor, 400-600g/plant outdoor. Height: Short-Medium (2-3.5 ft). Rated intermediate — the phenotype variation adds a layer of interest without adding significant difficulty. Growing from regular seeds with autoflowering genetics.

At 20%% THC, Recon delivers euphoric, happy, relaxed effects with a caryophyllene-influenced character. The onset is balanced — head and body arrive together and remain proportional throughout a 2-3 hour duration. This makes the strain adaptable to different situations depending on dose. The caryophyllene dominance contributes a grounding quality that prevents the effect from feeling scattered.

Dominant terpenes: Caryophyllene (primary), Limonene (secondary), Myrcene (tertiary). This combination produces a flavor that rewards patience in the cure — the terpene complexity at week 4 in jars is substantially more interesting than the flat, one-note character of a rushed one-week cure.

Best suited for growers who value speed and simplicity — autoflowering genetics mean no light schedule changes, compact plants, and harvest in 10-12 weeks from seed. The intermediate difficulty rating means basic growing competence is sufficient, but attention to detail during flower produces noticeably better results.
