Auto Purple Kush
Also known as: Purple Kush Auto, Purple Kush Autoflower
Overview
Auto Purple Kush is an autoflowering version of the legendary Purple Kush strain, created by crossing the original Purple Kush with Ruderalis genetics. This pure indica strain maintains all the characteristics that made Purple Kush famous while adding the convenience of automatic flowering. Originally developed from Hindu Kush and Purple Afghani genetics, this strain traces its roots to the mountainous regions of Afghanistan and Pakistan. The autoflowering variant preserves the strain's iconic purple coloration, which develops due to anthocyanins that are activated under cooler temperatures during the growing cycle.
The strain produces compact, bushy plants that rarely exceed 3 feet in height, making it ideal for indoor cultivation or growers with limited space. Auto Purple Kush is known for its ease of cultivation and beginner-friendly growing requirements. The dense, resin-coated buds display stunning purple hues mixed with deep green, accented by bright orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. This strain has earned recognition for maintaining the potency and effects of its photoperiod parent while offering the convenience of a shorter growing cycle.
