Growing Tips for Blue Afghani Auto

Blue Afghani Auto is an easy strain to grow, even if it is your first time cultivating cannabis. The ease of this grow is one of the most attractive qualities of this strain. Blue Afghani Auto cannabis plants will thrive both indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the grower's ability to control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will have to replicate a steady environment similar to a warm, temperate climate. Blue Afghani Auto produces dense and dank Indica buds that are rich in colour and resinous trichomes. If you are going to grow outdoors, you will need to maintain a consistent temperature and humidity to get these plants to harvest. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the perfect outdoor climate they require without having to contend with unexpected outdoor variables — particularly useful across many Canadian regions where weather can be unpredictable. Because these plants grow shorter than most, they require limited space and are perfect for smaller grows such as closet and balcony setups. You can also grow multiple plants in a smaller area, which will increase your yields exponentially. Please note that personal cultivation in Canada is permitted for up to 4 plants per household for personal use, though regulations may vary by province. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 21–29 degrees Celsius. Humidity levels should be kept at 40–70% during the vegetative stage and slowly decreased into the flowering stage of growth. Growing indoors will ensure that moderate humidity levels and temperature are maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages. Topping, Low-stress training (LST), and the Screen of Green (ScrOG) methods are the best training techniques for this particular strain. Each of these methods will keep the plant a healthy size while also increasing the overall yields once you are ready to clip and dry the buds. The Blue Afghani Auto strain requires an 18–20 hour light cycle to reach the vegetative stage of growth. You do not need to change the light cycle to induce the flowering stage because of this strain's autoflowering properties. This makes the grow slightly easier on the grower because it requires slightly less maintenance.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Blue Afghani Auto strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 55–65 days.
• Yields: Indoor yields are around 350 grams per square metre, while outdoor grows typically produce up to 450 grams per plant. Blue Afghani Auto is an easy and manageable strain to grow. The smaller stature of the plants makes it possible to grow multiple plants in a small area, thus increasing your yields exponentially.
• Harvest: Outdoor growers can plan on harvesting their yields around the middle of October, depending on when the seeds were planted.

Blue Afghani Auto: Sweet Blueberry Flavour

The Blue Afghani Auto terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while limonene and linalool are the secondary terpenes.

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – Known as a spicy and peppery terpene, caryophyllene is most commonly found in cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, and cannabis plants.
• Linalool: Secondary Terpene - Linalool is most commonly found in flowers like lavender and produces a floral flavour and aroma when found in cannabis plants.
• Limonene: Fresh Citrus - Found mostly in the rinds of citrus fruits, limonene is known for helping to decrease anxiety and can improve lung function when found in cannabis.
