Indica benefits with autoflowering velocity

Afghan has made a massive impact in the cannabis world and is coveted by breeders across the globe for her many desirable traits, one of which is her heavy resin production. Positronics Seeds aspired to create an autoflowering version of this famous weed to make her even more accessible to beginners and drastically cut down the wait time from germination to harvest. By crossing the marijuana variant with Lowryder #2, followed by several generations of selective breeding, a fast, compact, and fragrant specimen was produced.

The Afghan lineage in this strain’s aroma and taste is undeniable. Her buds are coated in thick resin that shares a deep musky scent and flavor, similar to black hashish from the Indian subcontinent. The earthiness is redolent of damp loam but with honey-like sweetness, as well as some floral and fruity undertones.

The high from Afghan Express asserts itself with a headrush that brings in some facial tics, such as pressure around the temples and behind the eyes or facial flushing. As the initial sensations diminish, smokers enter an altered mental state wherein they experience heightened sensory awareness and a slower perception of time. These psychedelic effects can make trippy music or movies even more enjoyable.

Afghan Express’s physical effect sits on the calming end of the spectrum. It starts with a tingly “pins and needles” feeling that spreads from the neck area down to the spine and the rest of the extremities. Capable of eliminating traces of motivation or any chance at productivity, this progressive body stone is perfect forde-stressing after a long, exhausting day. In high enough dosage, the relaxation can heighten to the point of gluing smokers in place. For this reason, the strain’s later stages are most suitably enjoyed in the comforts of one’s home. The bud’s sedative quality is also best for nighttime consumption or on days the to-do list is empty.

Afghan Express’s progressive, full-bodied relaxation brings many therapeutic benefits to medical marijuana patients. Her soothing yet uplifting euphoria counteracts the dispiriting symptoms of stress, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Physically, the strain soothes aches and pains brought about by injuries or health conditions like migraines, lupus,and arthritis. Her anti-inflammatory properties also take the edge off nausea and muscle cramps. Moreover, the bud induces hunger, which helps people suffering from poor appetite, and is a natural sedative that can combat insomnia.

Because the use of Afghan Express comes with a risk of panic or obsessive thinking, albeit minimal, the strain is best avoided by patients prone to paranoia. Changes in sensory perception may also overwhelm users with low THC tolerance, so starting low and going slow is recommended. Anticipate dry sensations in the mouth and eyes as well.

Afghan Express Grow Info

After germination, the seeds of Afghan Express will immediately start their vegetative growth. This stage typically lasts for around two weeks before automatically switching to flowering mode (with or without changes in the light cycle). The strainisn’t exactly a cookie-cutter type of Indica-leaning autoflower as she can grow up to 2-meter high under optimal outdoor conditions. Indoor cultivators shouldn’t worry, though, as she tends to stay within 70 to 100 cm tall in a controlled environment. Plus, low-stress training can keep her within a manageable height for stealth or space reasons. We recommend growing the plant in a 10-liter pot since she can get quite big.

Afghan Express produces many long, sturdy branches and broad fan leaves.Despite being bushy, she’s an emerald, bud-loaded beauty with excellent mold resistance. Just provide some pruning in the lower foliage, and she’d pretty much grow on her own.

Thanks to her Afghan and Ruderalis genetics, the strain does well in higher latitudes and temperate climates. Her 10- to 11-week-long life cycle allows her to reach full maturity before the weather turns inclement. In warmer climates, growers can even achieve two to three harvests per year by starting another batch before the earlier bunch is ready to harvest. Planting season outdoors begins by may, and crops collected from July to October tend to be the heaviest at about 100 grams per plant since it’s the sunniest and warmest period of the year.

Afghan Express may attract predators with her strong fragrance. Outdoor cultivators can help use companion plants like marigold, peppermint, lavender, and lemon balm to fend off pest attacks. These garden neighbors will throw unwanted insects off the aroma of your precious cannabis floras.

Indoors, it’s advisable to provide an 18/6 or 20/4 light cycle until the end of the flowering stage. You can harvest up to 100 grams of sticky buds per square meter in a Sea of Green (SOG) setup or if low-stress training is employed correctly.

Afghan Express Strain FAQ

What types of grow lights work best with autoflowering cannabis plants?

Autoflowering cannabis plants are a popular choice for indoor growers, as they do not require a special or particular light cycle to flower. However, there are a few things to keep in mind when choosing grow lights for autoflowering plants. First, consider the spectrum of the light. Full-spectrum lights are generally best as they provide a more complete light spectrum that is closer to sunlight. Second, consider the intensity of the light. Autoflowering plants do not need as much light as other types of cannabis plants, so it is vital to choose a light that is not too intense. Third, consider the distance of the light from the plant. Finally, consider the duration of the light cycle. Autoflowering plants do not need a particular light cycle to flower, so any length of light exposure will work. You can choose the best grow lights for your autoflowering cannabis plants by keeping these factors in mind.

What grow medium should I use for Afghan Express?

One of the most important decisions that growers have to make is what type of grow medium to use. There are a variety of options available, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks. For growers looking to get the most out of their autoflowering cannabis plants, one of the best choices is coco coir. This natural fiber comes from the husks of coconuts, and it provides an ideal balance of airflow and moisture retention. Coco coir can also be used as a standalone medium or mixed with other materials, such as perlite or vermiculite. Another popular option for autoflowering cannabis plants is soil. Soil is easy to find and relatively inexpensive, and it can be amended with a variety of ingredients to create the perfect growing environment. However, soil can compact over time, which can lead to problems with drainage and aeration. As a result, growers who choose to grow in soil will need to pay close attention to their plants and be prepared to make adjustments as needed. No matter which grow medium you choose, it’s important to remember that autoflowering cannabis plants are relatively small and delicate. As such, they require extra care and attention to produce high-quality buds.

How to maximize the bud production of Afghan Express?

Many growers choose autoflowers for their ease of cultivation, but these strains can sometimes produce disappointing results in terms of bud yield. However, a few simple steps can be taken to maximize the bud production of autoflowers. One important factor is light intensity. Autoflowers do best in bright conditions, so giving them as much light as possible is vital. Another factor is temperature. Keeping the grow room on the cooler side will encourage the plant to put more energy into bud development. Finally, it is important to provide plenty of nutrients, especially during flowering. By following these simple tips, growers can help their autoflowers reach their full potential.

How to maximize the potency of buds from autoflowering cannabis strains during cultivation and after?

Autoflowering cannabis strains are a relatively new innovation, and as such, there is still some debate about the best way to cultivate them. However, there are a few things that experts agree on when it comes to maximizing the potency of autoflowering buds. First of all, it is crucial to start with a high-quality strain. Many different autoflowering strains are available, and not all of them are created equal. Make sure to do your research and choose a strain known for producing high-quality buds.

Once you have your autoflowering cannabis strain, it is essential to pay attention to the size of your plants. Autoflowering strains tend to be smaller than their regular counterparts, so they will need less space to grow. This means that you can fit more plants into a given area, which can help to increase the overall potency of your crop. In addition, it is important to ensure that your plants have adequate ventilation and lighting. These factors will also impact the potency of your buds.

Finally, it is crucial to cure your buds properly after harvest. Curing helps to preserve the cannabinoids and terpenes in your buds, making them more potent.
