What the seed lot did on the bench
Every lot is checked before it goes on the shelf, and the yield figures come from New Zealand growers who sent us a harvest weight against a batch code. This lot was read on 2026-09-23, from a tray sample of 200.
Outdoor figures come from a New Zealand season, so they run below what the same cultivar reaches somewhere with a longer, drier autumn. Treat them as what this plant does here. The full report for this lot sets out the method and the terpene panel.
About Tigermelon Auto
Crack a properly cured jar of Tigermelon and linalool arrives first β that is the compound doing most of the aromatic work here, carried by myrcene and rounded off with caryophyllene. Terpene expression is not fixed at the genetic level; it is something you either preserve or destroy in the last fortnight and the dry. This page is about keeping it.
Protecting the Linalool in Tigermelon
Terpenes are volatile. That single fact explains almost every flavour disappointment growers report.
Late flower. Heat drives off the lighter aromatic compounds, so the last fortnight wants cooler nights rather than a push for size. Growers chasing the final few grams routinely trade away the thing that made the strain worth growing.
The dry. This is where most of the loss happens. Slow and cool, over a couple of weeks, in the dark, with air moving but never blowing on the flower. Fast drying strips linalool first, and it does not come back.
The cure. Sealed glass, opened daily at first, held somewhere stable. Myrcene and Caryophyllene tend to surface over the following month as the harsher volatiles clear.
Everything above matters more than any bottled additive claiming to boost flavour. If aroma is your priority, the indica seeds range is where to browse the rest.
Effect Profile
Relaxed, Euphoric is the consensus, and consensus is worth exactly what it sounds like β a starting point. 27% THC sets the scale; linalool and the terpenes alongside it shape the character rather than the strength.
Onset is quick by inhalation and slow by ingestion, which is where most bad experiences begin. Expect the weight to settle physically within the hour.
If potency is what you are shopping for, the high-THC seeds category is sorted for it.
The Terpenes
Linalool leads, myrcene sits behind it, and caryophyllene runs underneath.
This trio is a common signature in well-regarded cultivars, which is not an accident: linalool carries weight, myrcene adds definition, caryophyllene keeps it from being one-note. It reads clearly on a first opening rather than needing to be hunted for.
Who It Suits
Tigermelon is rated medium. That sits in the middle β you want a working understanding of pH and feeding, but nothing exotic. Being an autoflower removes light-cycle management entirely, which suits balcony growers and anyone wanting a fast turnaround.
Shipped nationwide in plain packaging. Every strain page carries whatever grow data we could actually source, and nothing we could not.

Where Tigermelon Auto Comes From
Documented parentage is Chemdawg Γ Apollo 11 Γ Uzbekistani Indica. Where a cultivar's origin is recorded we name it on this page; where it is contested or simply unknown, the field stays empty rather than being filled with something plausible.
We did not originate the cultivars in this catalogue and do not claim to have. What we do is select and stabilise the lines we sell, so that a pack grows out more uniformly than an unworked one β which matters more in New Zealand than in most places, because an outdoor grower here is working to a frost date rather than an open-ended season. The stabilisation programme sets out how that works and what it does not cover.
Every pack is covered by our germination promise: follow the method in the germination guide and seed that fails to open is replaced free within 30 days.
