Our Top 5 Indica Strains For Warm Climates In 2024

Indica genetics originated from the Hindu Kush mountain range that stretches through Afghanistan, Northern Pakistan, and into Tajikistan. Although parts of the geological feature experience high altitude and colder temperatures, certain regions experience extremely warm summers and a lengthy growing season.

For this reason, indica varieties are well-suited for warmer southern climates. They make the most of the excess sunlight, and specimens with longer flowering periods are given the full time they need to reach their full potential.

The list below features our top five indica cultivars to grow in southern regions in 2024.

1. Royal Cookies

Royal Cookies is the product of the Breeders at Royal Queen Seed’s quest to develop the definitive cookie monster cannabis strain. By selectively breeding the finest Californian cookies cultivars and refining the progeny, the recipe has been perfected. Southern growers that sow Royal Cookies seeds in summer will be in store for the most decadent cannabis treat by October.

The complex blend of sweet cookies and rich earthy undertones will excite your nostrils and positively delight your palate. But make no mistake; these sugary cookie nuggets pack a serious punch. Expect 23% THC. Plants will branch vigorously and bush out well in a sunny southern climate. Compact ganja bushes approx 1.5m tall capable of producing up to 17.6 oz can be achieved. You won’t find the cookie stash jar empty anytime soon after you give these beans a run.

2. Triple G

Although she features a relatively short flowering time, Triple G thrives in a warm climate, where she’ll produce exceptionally dense and resinous buds. The stoning powerhouse descends from indica titan Gorilla Glue #4 and sativa Gelato phenotype “33”. Triple G emerged from this combination with 85% indica genetics and an out-of-this-world terpene profile. She lands a heavy blow to the body with a THC content of 26%, resulting in a fast-acting and long-lasting high.

She’ll peak at a height of 70.2 inches in a warm southern climate and displays a bushy and dense morphology. Defoliation and main-lining help to open up her canopy and improve aeration, pushing her yield towards a maximum of 22.9 oz. Her trichome-heavy flowers will reach maturity after 8–9 weeks of blooming.

Solomatic CBD packs enormous levels of CBD and almost no THC. She makes the perfect smoke during the day to remain productive and collected. Our breeders paired parent strains Diesel CBD Auto and Asia CBD Auto to give rise to CBD-rich, efficient plants ideal for clandestine cultivation. Her buds churn out a total CBD value of 21%, along with 1% THC. This ratio catalyses a subtle relaxing effect that banishes tension, with no psychoactive side effects.

Given the chance, she’ll climb to a height of 58.5 inches and produce a large central cola flanked by an abundance of smaller bud sites. Use LST and topping to keep her at around 39 inches without compromising on output. With a brief flowering time of 7–8 weeks, you can capitalise on the warmest days of summer to max out yields.

4. Royal Bluematic

This durable and hardy auto will grow just about anywhere, but only growers in warm regions will see what she’s truly capable of.

This indica-dominant auto produces outright gorgeous flowers. Shades of deep purple, green, and orange put on an impressive show. They produce a resin with a mellow THC content of 14%; enough to feel your worries drop away without getting too stoned.

Royal Bluematic won’t exceed 39 inches in warm southern climates, and she can easily be trained to around 27.3 inches. You’ll be harvesting these plants not long after you drop seeds into the soil.

5. Sweet ZZ Automatic

Sweet ZZ Automatic merges the desirable traits of speed and potency. Many autos trade off one for the other, but our skilful breeders worked hard to ensure this cultivar boasts both. She inherited high THC levels and sugary tastes from Sweet ZZ, and autoflowering genetics and a touch of citrus from Diesel Auto. With a THC content of 18%, she resides on the more potent end of the auto spectrum, exerting a soothing body high that makes the eyelids feel heavy and the belly empty. High levels of the terpene myrcene synergise with THC to enhance these relaxing effects.

Growers can successfully harvest Sweet ZZ Automatic multiple times over the growing season in southern climates. She grows to between 3.6 – 3.9 feet and produces up to 6.2 oz outdoors in as little as 8 weeks.
