Strain Description:
 
Afghani #1 Automatic is a pure Indica strain designed for quick, easy cultivation and potent effects. This autoflowering version preserves the legendary genetics of the traditional Afghan hash plants, combined with Ruderalis to ensure automatic flowering regardless of light cycles. It grows into robust, medium-height plants with dense, resinous buds covered in trichomes, which can be harvested as kief or processed into rich hashish.
 
With a flowering period of just 5-7 weeks and a total growth cycle of around 12 weeks, Afghani #1 Automatic is incredibly fast, making it ideal for multiple harvests per year. The compact structure with dark green foliage and distinct lateral branches produces heavy yields, especially when cultivated using the Sea of Green (SOG) technique.
 
The powerful Indica effects are deeply relaxing and sedative, making it an excellent choice for evening use or as a natural sleep aid. Its potent effects can be overwhelming for inexperienced users, providing a long-lasting body high that is perfect for stress relief and relaxation.
 
The flavour profile is rich and complex, dominated by spicy notes complemented by sweet, earthy, and smoky undertones, delivering a classic Indica experience.
 
Growing Information:
 
Afghani #1 Automatic is incredibly easy to grow, suitable for beginners and experts alike. Its autoflowering nature means it does not require a change in light cycles to start flowering, making it perfect for indoor cultivation under consistent light schedules. It also thrives outdoors in warm, sunny climates, with a complete growth cycle from seed to harvest taking just 12 weeks.
 
The plants are medium in height, compact, and robust, requiring minimal maintenance. The best results are achieved from a main stem with unpruned side branches. Unlike photoperiod varieties, topping or pruning is not recommended, as it does not encourage further branching or flower production.
 
For maximum yield, the Sea of Green (SOG) method is highly effective. This involves growing many smaller plants close together, concentrating growth on the main stem. This technique takes advantage of the compact structure and heavy resin production of Afghani #1 Automatic, resulting in dense, trichome-rich buds that retain their weight even after drying.
 
The plants' high resin production makes them ideal for hashish enthusiasts, as the trichomes can be collected and processed into potent hash.
 
Strain Flavour and Aromas:
 
Afghani #1 Automatic offers a rich and complex flavour and aroma profile. Its bouquet is dominated by the spicy scent of cannabis resin, reminiscent of traditional Afghan hashish. This is complemented by sweet, earthy, and smoky notes, creating a well-rounded, aromatic experience.
 
The flavour follows suit with a spicy taste, layered with earthy sweetness. The smoke is smooth and dense, leaving a lingering, aromatic aftertaste that resonates with Indica lovers.
 
The strain's terpene profile is rich in Myrcene, contributing to its deeply relaxing effects and earthy aroma, while Caryophyllene adds a spicy, peppery undertone.
 
Strain Lineage:
 
Afghani #1 Automatic is a hybrid of the original Afghani #1 and Ruderalis genetics. The original Afghani #1 is a pure Indica strain derived from traditional Afghan landraces, known for their robust growth, heavy resin production, and deeply relaxing effects. These landraces were cultivated in the high-altitude regions of Afghanistan’s Hindu Kush mountains, where generations of selective breeding produced potent, resinous hash plants.
 
By combining Afghani #1 with Ruderalis genetics, Sensi Seeds created an autoflowering version that retains the legendary potency and resin production of its parent while adding the convenience of automatic flowering.
 
This lineage makes Afghani #1 Automatic a reliable, high-yielding strain with the unmistakable potency and flavour of classic Afghan Indicas, enhanced by the easy-growing nature of Ruderalis.
