Brutal by Automaris

The Origin Story (Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Ruderalis)

Automaris basically said, “What if we bred a strain that’s part couch-lock, part rocket ship, and part cockroach?” Boom—Brutal. It’s the cannabis equivalent of throwing indica, sativa, and ruderalis into a blender, then apologizing to the blender. Dutch Passion called the genetics “brutal” in 2022, which is industry speak for “we’re not liable for your snack bill.”

Effects: Schrödinger’s High

40 % indica says, “Let’s melt into the sofa and debate the concept of time.” 40 % sativa counters with, “Only if we do it while speed-cleaning the kitchen.” The remaining 20 % ruderalis just makes sure the whole thing finishes before your pizza arrives. Expect a giggly head lift followed by a weighted-blanket body hug—perfect for people who can’t decide whether to marathon Netflix or reorganize it alphabetically.

Flavor & Aroma: Candy-Skunk Funk

Imagine a peach Ring Pop fell into a gym sock that previously attended a Phish concert. On the inhale you get sickly-sweet candy; on the exhale you get eau de roadkill chic. The room note is so pungent your neighbors will think you’re either curing prosciutto or hiding a family of skunks—possibly both.

Growing Brutal (Even Your Brown-Thumb Uncle Can)

Auto-flowering means it flips to bloom on its own schedule—like that one friend who ghosts for six weeks then shows up with a beard. Indoors it’ll cough up 400–500 g/m² of dense, purple-flecked nugs in record time, thanks to the ruderalis speed-run gene. Outdoor growers brag it survived everything from rogue frost to their experimental reggaeton playlist. Bonus: trichome density clocks in at 150k/cm², so your trim bin will look like a cocaine Christmas.

Medical: The Gentle Brute

At 18 % THC it’s strong enough to hush chronic pain and anxiety without staging an intervention on your frontal lobe. Great for patients who need daytime functionality but still want their muscles to feel like warm taffy. Word of caution: dosing is key unless your goal is to stare at the ceiling wondering if fish yawn.

Who Should Smoke This?

Perfect for the indecisive hybrid lover, the yield-chasing grower, and anyone who’s ever said, “I want to feel motivated and lazy at the exact same time.” If your personality is a Spotify playlist titled “Chaotic Neutral,” Brutal is basically the shuffle button.
