What is the Auto Afghan strain?

Auto Afghan is a indica cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.

Auto Afghan is an autoflowering variant of the legendary Afghan strain, created by crossing traditional Afghan landrace genetics with ruderalis to enable automatic flowering. This strain was first developed by Dutch seed banks in Amsterdam and was one of the earliest genetics crossed with Ruderalis to create automatic varieties, born from the union of Afghani and Lowryder genetics. The original Afghan cannabis strain is a pure indica landrace strain that has influenced countless modern hybrids, hailing from the Hindu Kush mountain range and representing cannabis in one of its purest forms. Auto Afghan retains the classic characteristics of its landrace parent while offering faster growing cycles and easier cultivation. The strain retains the classic Afghani traits of dense buds and a strong, earthy aroma, with genetics that offer a soothing and relaxing effect typical of Indica strains, providing a calming experience for users. Auto Afghan is the autoflowering variant of this superstar strain, reducing total cultivation times in exchange for fractionally lower yields while maintaining an average THC content of 20%.
