Purple Lemonade Auto is a feminised autoflowering hybrid presented in the Kiwi Seed Bank catalogue. Combining Purple Lemonade genetics with ruderalis, it offers compact growth, vivid purple colour potential and a sweet, citrus-led aroma. Its relatively quick cycle and manageable height suit growers with some prior experience.

Genetics & effects

This autoflowering hybrid is listed as approximately 70% indica and 30% sativa. THC is estimated at 18–22%, while CBD is listed at 0–0.5%. Individual results can vary with phenotype, environment and cultivation choices.

Reported experiences are subjective. Some consumers describe an initially euphoric, upbeat character that gradually feels more relaxing and physically settled. Its potency may feel pronounced, particularly for people with lower tolerance. The aromatic profile combines sweet lemon, tangy citrus, sour accents and tropical notes, supported by limonene, myrcene and caryophyllene.

Growing in New Zealand

Purple Lemonade Auto is best matched with temperate or hot, dry conditions. In New Zealand, outdoor spring planting generally falls between September and November. Autoflowering plants do not rely on changing daylight hours to begin flowering, although warmth and strong light remain important for steady development.

Choose a bright position with shelter from severe wind and prolonged rain. Free-draining soil or another airy growing medium helps avoid waterlogged roots. Because dense flowers can hold moisture, regular airflow and sensible spacing may reduce mould risk in humid or coastal locations.

Indoor

Indoors, plants may reach up to 110 cm. A stable light schedule, moderate feeding and consistent airflow generally suit this variety. Autoflowers have limited time to recover from major stress, so gentle plant shaping is preferable to repeated, high-impact techniques.

Keep the canopy open without excessive handling, and allow the growing medium to dry slightly between waterings. Indoor yields are listed at up to 500 g/m², but lighting, container size, plant health and grower skill all influence the final result.

Outdoor

Outdoor plants may grow to approximately 130 cm and produce up to 120 g per plant in favourable conditions. Select the sunniest practical location and avoid low areas where cool air or water gathers. Containers can be useful where plants need to be moved away from storms or extended wet weather.

Purple tones may become more visible as temperatures cool, though colour expression depends heavily on phenotype and conditions. Its sweet-and-sour lemon profile can become distinctive late in flowering, making carbon filtration worth considering for discreet indoor spaces.

Harvest

The flowering period is estimated at 7–8 weeks, with the full seed-to-harvest cycle varying by environment and plant development. For spring outdoor starts in New Zealand, the broader seasonal harvest window is March–May, although fast autoflowers started early may finish sooner.

Assess maturity from overall flower development rather than the calendar alone. Keep flowers dry near harvest, inspect dense areas for mould and handle branches carefully to preserve their citrus aroma and purple colour. Listed yield, height, timing and potency figures are estimates rather than assured outcomes.
