Critical Auto
Also known as: Royal Critical Auto, Critical Autoflower, Critical+ Autoflowering, Auto Critical
Overview
Critical Auto is an autoflowering version of the acclaimed Critical strain, created by combining Critical Mass genetics with ruderalis genes to produce an automatic flowering trait. The strain originates from a cross between Afghani and Skunk genetics, with Critical being bred by Royal Queen Seeds as a cross of an Afghani strain with an heirloom Skunk. This genetic heritage gives Critical Auto its indica dominance (approximately 80%) and calming effects on both body and mind. Critical Auto produces massive harvests and is reliable for growers from seasoned veterans to complete novices, yielding 350-550 gr/m² indoors and 50-150 grams per plant outdoors. Plants remain compact at 90-120 cm tall and complete their entire life cycle in just 10 weeks. The strain is known for its ability to grow heavy, dense colas with such weight that branches may require support to prevent snapping.

Growing Information
Critical Auto is beginner-friendly and reliable, producing 350-550 gr/m² indoors and 50-150 grams per plant outdoors from plants that stay 90-120 cm tall. The strain completes its entire life cycle in 10 weeks from seed to harvest. Flowering time is 7-8 weeks with total crop time of 9-10 weeks. Plants can be ready for harvest in 9 weeks post-germination with basic grower care and plenty of light, suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Due to heavy cola production, support with bamboo canes or trellises is recommended to prevent branch breakage. Growers should monitor humidity carefully as large colas can hold moisture and develop mold issues. Difficulty level is considered easy to moderate, making it ideal for beginners.
