Fast Buds tells its own beginning as two breeders in a small apartment lab in 2012, at a time when the industry still argued about whether autoflowers were worth growing at all. Their stated aim was to put the potency and flavour of American genetics into a format that needed no light cycle, which they did by crossing varieties like GG#4 and Girl Scout Cookies with selected ruderalis lines.
By their account the brand spread by word of mouth among growers on forums and grow diaries before it was ever marketed, and its first public appearance was at Spannabis in March 2015. An office in Chile followed the same year, which is still where their South American orders are handled from.
They name Gorilla Cookies Auto and Purple Lemonade Auto as the two strains that made them, and they claim a first place at the Autoflower World Cup and a best auto at the Cosecha Cup for the first of those, plus the strongest autoflower of 2025 for Frostbanger Auto. Those are their own claims about themselves and are not checked here. The same page describes a wave of white-label imitations of their names, which is their reading of the market rather than a fact we can confirm.
