Afghan Punch
Also known as: Afghan Punch F2
Overview
Afghan Punch is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Heart & Soil Seeds through the crossing of Peruvian Punch and Heirloom Afghan Hindu Kush. This F2 generation strain represents a unique blend of modern hybrid genetics with traditional landrace cannabis lineage from the Hindu Kush mountains. The strain combines the sedating, resinous characteristics of its Afghan parent with the more complex terpene profile and effects of Peruvian Punch, which itself is a cross between (Mendo Breath x Purple Punch) and Peruvian Heirloom genetics.
Afghan Punch is noted for its balanced hybrid effects that deliver both relaxation and euphoria. Users report experiencing a full-body buzz that begins with initial cerebral effects before transitioning into deep physical relaxation. The strain has gained recognition in cannabis communities for its smooth smoking experience and potent effects, with some users describing it as capable of inducing profound relaxation while maintaining mental clarity. The combination of its genetic lineage creates a strain that appeals to both recreational and medical cannabis users seeking relief from stress, insomnia, and chronic pain.

Afghan Punch has a flowering time of 8-10 weeks (approximately 63 days) and can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, or in greenhouse environments. The strain is available only as regular seeds, not feminized. It inherits some of the hardiness from its Afghan parent, making it relatively resilient during cultivation. The strain is suitable for intermediate growers and benefits from consistent environmental conditions. Plants typically produce resinous buds with good terpene development when grown under optimal conditions.
