About Five Alive Strain
Grape Pie x Bubblegum x Orange Juice all feed into Five Alive, and each parent is traceable in the finished flower. That pedigree shows up in the jar as a grape-forward sweetness sitting on top of a clear lemon-grapefruit citrus note, and the smoke carries the same profile through to the exhale rather than flattening out. It is one of the more distinctive fruit-and-citrus terpene combinations we stock, and it holds its aroma well through a slow cure.
The chemistry sits at roughly 26% THC with about 0.8% CBD, on a sativa-leaning frame of around 85% sativa to 15% indica. The character is energetic and cerebral, with enough indica in the background to keep the edges soft. Many growers report a fast onset and a long, clear-headed session that suits daytime use and creative work more than an early night.
Growing Five Alive Autoflower Seeds in Canada
Because this is an autoflowering line, the plants run on age rather than on a light schedule. There is no 12/12 flip to manage and no need to darken a tent on a timer —seedlings move into flower on their own clock and finish roughly eight to eleven weeks from germination. For Canadian growers that is the whole point: a June start in Manitoba or Saskatchewan is still comfortably harvested before the first hard frost, and growers south of that line often stagger two runs across a single summer.
- Height: roughly 47–59 inches (120–150 cm), tall for an auto but still manageable on a balcony or in a small greenhouse
- Structure: slim sativa frame with elongated, cone-shaped, resin-heavy flowers
- Yield: around 550–600 g/m² under good light
- Training: tolerates high-stress work, though timing matters more on an auto, keep it early
Autos give you a narrow training window, so any topping or LST should happen in the first two or three weeks while vegetative growth is still active. A SCROG screen works if you set it early and simply tuck growth through it rather than trying to force a recovery later. In damp BC or Ontario autumns, watch humidity around the dense colas and keep air moving under the canopy to head off mould.
What to Expect
A forgiving plant with an unusually loud citrus-grape nose, a short calendar, and a genuinely strong finished product. Beginners do well with it because the seed-to-harvest window leaves less time for a small mistake to compound. Five Alive autoflower seeds ship across Canada in discreet packaging.

Five Alive really lives up to its name. The citrus-heavy aroma stood out immediately, especially the grapefruit and lemon notes during flowering. The effects hit fast and kept me focused and energized for hours without feeling jittery. This is easily one of the most unique-tasting strains I’ve grown from The Seed Pharm.

I was drawn to Five Alive because of its genetics, and it didn’t disappoint. The plant grew tall and slim, true to its sativa dominance, and handled training very well. The buds came out sticky and resin-rich with a fruity scent that filled the room. The high is clear-headed and uplifting—great for daytime use.

This strain is perfect if you’re looking for something different. The flavor profile is incredible—grapefruit upfront with a smooth lemon finish. The effects are strong but manageable, keeping me alert and mentally sharp. I also noticed it helped with nausea and stress without knocking me out.
Melissa O’Connor –
Five Alive was an easy grow, even for someone with limited experience like me. It stayed healthy throughout the cycle and produced long, dense buds with a thick resin coating. The high is energetic and positive, helping me stay productive while easing body tension. I’d definitely grow this again.

I’ve grown many autoflowers, and Five Alive stands out for both yield and effects. The plant responded very well to SCROG and rewarded me with impressive harvests. The cerebral high is long-lasting and motivating, perfect for creative work. The Seed Pharm continues to deliver solid genetics.
