What is the Afghan Express strain?
Afghan Express is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 18.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and coffee and earthy flavor profile.
Afghan Express is a third-generation autoflowering hybrid strain developed by Positronics Seeds to showcase the power of Afghan genetics in an automatic flowering format. The strain was created by crossing an old Afghani clone from Wernard Bruining, selected for its excellent THC/CBD ratio, with Lowryder II ruderalis genetics. This breeding program was carried out over multiple generations to stabilize the autoflowering characteristics while maintaining the desirable traits of traditional Afghan varieties.
The strain exhibits typical Afghan plant structure with robust branching, thick wide leaflets of intense green color, and large buds completely covered in resin. Afghan Express is notable for its impressive size for an autoflowering strain, capable of reaching 1.8-2 meters in height when grown outdoors from May, which often leads novice growers to question whether it's truly an autoflowering variety. The strain maintains the legendary resin production of its Afghan heritage, making it excellent for extractions and hash production.
