Afghan Mass
Afghan Mass
Overview
Afghan Mass is a heavily indica dominant hybrid strain (90% indica/10% sativa) created as a descendant of the infamous Critical Mass. Critical Mass itself is a potent indica marijuana strain made by crossing Afghani and Skunk #1, which forms the genetic foundation for Afghan Mass. This strain represents a more indica-leaning evolution of the Critical Mass lineage, emphasizing the sedative and therapeutic qualities inherited from its Afghan ancestry. If you're looking for a super potent and medicinal high with an indica lean, you've found it with Afghan Mass. Afghan Mass buds have oversized and heavy super dense dark olive green nugs with deep purple undertones, vivid orange hairs and a coating of frosty purple-white crystal trichomes. The strain's development focused on enhancing the therapeutic potential while maintaining the robust characteristics that made Critical Mass famous among cultivators and medical users alike.

Growing Information
Afghan Mass inherits growing characteristics from its Critical Mass lineage. Flowering time for Critical Mass is approximately 6-8 weeks, and Afghan Mass likely follows similar timing. When growing, branches of this strain tend to snap off from the heavy weight of its buds - which are dense, heavy and tasty. The downside of Critical Mass is that this strain is particularly susceptible to mold, so growers have to be extra cautious with humidity. Afghan Mass would require similar care with humidity control and branch support due to heavy bud production. The strain is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though indoor growing allows better environmental control to prevent mold issues.
