Critical Jack Automatic
Also known as: Critical Jack Auto, Critical Jack Autoflowering
Overview
Critical Jack Automatic is an autoflowering cannabis strain developed by Dinafem Seeds through crossing their Critical + 2.0 elite clone with Haze 2.0 Autoflowering genetics. This strain represents the autoflowering version of the popular Critical Jack, maintaining the distinctive characteristics of its photoperiod parent while adding the convenience of automatic flowering. The strain features a balanced 60% indica and 40% sativa genetic makeup, resulting in a medium-sized, branchy plant with a characteristic fir shape and medium internode spacing. Critical Jack Automatic is particularly notable for its dense, elongated buds covered in resinous trichomes and its complex flavor profile combining citrus, cedar, and spicy notes. The strain has gained recognition among both novice and experienced growers for its relatively easy cultivation, generous yields, and consistent quality that challenges preconceptions about autoflowering genetics.

Growing Information
Critical Jack Automatic is considered beginner-friendly with moderate growing difficulty. The autoflowering nature eliminates the need for light cycle changes, making cultivation simpler. Flowering time ranges from 60-82 days from seed to harvest, with approximately 60 days of actual flowering after a 22-day vegetative period. Indoor yields range from 450-500g/m² (1.47-1.64 oz/ft²), while outdoor plants can produce 400-500g per plant (14-17 oz). Plants typically reach heights of 50-100cm outdoors and remain compact indoors. The strain tolerates both indoor and outdoor conditions well, shows good resistance to moisture and pests, and can handle higher fertilization levels than average. Recommended light cycles are 18/6 or 20/4 for optimal yields.
