Wilson Auto

Wilson carries caryophyllene as its lead note: peppercorn and warm timber, dry rather than sweet, catching slightly at the back of the throat. Myrcene sits beneath it and shows up second, adding weight and body underneath. The plant tests at 16% THC across a 64/36 split, though what decides whether any of this reaches the jar is the cure, not the seed.

Growing Wilson for terpene expression and growing it for weight are not the same project, and it is worth deciding which one you are on. The Caryophyllene/Myrcene/Humulene profile does its best work in living soil, where the biology produces compounds a bottle does not contain. Good peat-free compost and worm castings are available in any garden centre here, which makes that approach far less specialist than it sounds.

Stop foliar spraying after the second week of bloom. Anything that lands on a developing trichome is still there at harvest and is tasted rather than seen. In the last three weeks the night temperature decides which terpenes lead: held at 16-18°C the caryophyllene comes forward, while a warmer finish protects the lighter humulene notes.

Then the cure, which is where Irish growers lose most of what they built. A ten to fourteen day hang wants 17°C and something near 58% humidity, and the ambient air here will not supply either for most of the year — a closed room and a small dehumidifier will. Into glass afterwards, burped twice daily for a fortnight. The myrcene layer arrives somewhere in weeks three and four, not before.

Flowering: 7–9 weeks from seed. Indoor yield: 300–500 g/m². Outdoor yield: 300–500 g/plant. Plant height: 80–120 cm. Rated easy difficulty.

The catalogue lists relaxed, calm, and that matches what growers here report back. At 16% THC this hybrid sits where the balance is the argument for it. Small doses stay functional, larger ones relax properly, and the 64/36 split means the direction is set by the amount rather than fixed by the plant. The Caryophyllene and Myrcene together leave warmth and spice, drying on the exhale.

Suited to most occasions, with the dose doing the steering.

Primary: Caryophyllene · Secondary: Myrcene · Tertiary: Humulene. This is a combination that turns up repeatedly in cultivars people rate, and it is usually what gets commented on when a jar is opened for the first time after a proper cure. Caryophyllene anchors it, myrcene holds the middle, and humulene sits behind both — the last of those being what separates this from other strains leading on the same terpene.

Wilson suits growers with the fundamentals in place. Understand pH, rough nutrient ratios and a light cycle before committing to it; it asks for competence rather than expertise. Autoflowering genetics remove the light schedule from the equation, which matters in a shed or a spare room where full darkness is not realistic. A bloom of 7–9 weeks from seed fits inside the season here for outdoor growers, with a tunnel making it comfortable rather than tight.
