Overview
Auto Critical XXL is an autoflowering hybrid cannabis strain that represents the culmination of several generations of selective breeding using large autoflowering plants crossed with legendary Critical Mass genetics. Originating from multiple international breeders including SeedStockers, Philosopher Seeds, and others, this strain maintains the classic Critical lineage traced back to Big Bud, Afghan, and Skunk #1 genetics while incorporating ruderalis genetics for its autoflowering characteristics. The strain is celebrated as one of the most productive autoflowering varieties available, capable of reaching heights of up to 150cm and yielding exceptional harvests in relatively short timeframes. Auto Critical XXL exhibits the characteristic dense bud structure of its Critical heritage, with flowers displaying bright light green coloration streaked with orange to reddish pistils and a thick coating of resinous trichomes. The plants typically maintain a medium to tall stature for an autoflower and demonstrate robust growth patterns suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. This strain has gained popularity among commercial growers and home cultivators alike due to its reliability, heavy yields, and preservation of the beloved old-school Skunk terpene profile that has made Critical strains famous worldwide.

Growing Information
Auto Critical XXL is considered easy to moderately easy to grow, making it suitable for beginners and experienced cultivators alike. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 70-80 days from seed to harvest, with some phenotypes finishing as early as 63 days. Indoor yields can reach 350-550g per square meter under optimal conditions with 18/6 or 20/4 light schedules. Outdoor plants can produce 120-300g per plant when grown in warm, dry, sunny climates with at least 5-6 hours of direct sunlight. Plants typically reach 60-150cm in height depending on growing conditions and can be grown year-round indoors. The strain demonstrates good resistance to pests and mold, though proper ventilation is important due to its strong aromatic profile. Training techniques like LST can be beneficial, but topping is not recommended for autoflowering varieties. The strain performs well in soil, coco, and hydroponic systems with pH levels of 6.0-7.0 for soil and 5.5-6.5 for hydroponic setups.
