Growing Tips for Our Seeds

The Afgoo strain grows best in a sunny or light-filled warm environment that is similar to the Mediterranean or Hawaiian environments Afgoo can be grown indoors or outdoors. This indica-dominant hybrid comes with the bonus of being resistant to common diseases, it still requires at least a medium amount of previous cultivation experience to successfully grow.

However, if that’s not an option, this indica will do fine in nutrient-rich soil.

Dial in Your Growing Conditions

• Indoor or Outdoor: Growing Afgoo plants both indoors and outdoors can be somewhat tricky for novice growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is between 68-80 degrees fahrenheit. This strain benefits from 18-24 hours of light per day during the vegetative stage. Dial it back to a 12/12 light cycle to induce the flowering stage.
•  Moisture control: Relative humidity levels should be approximately 40-60% during the vegetative stage. Lowering the humidity to 30-40% during flowering will help you reach your optimum yields.
• Training Techniques: Implementing strategies like topping and Low-Stress Training are recommended for this strain. Adjusting the top of the plant so that light and air circulation reach all levels of the plant is key to a successful grow.

• THC: The Main Character – THC is the most dominant cannabinoid on the molecular level of this strain. The crystalline compound tetrahydrocannabinol is the main ingredient of cannabis. Topping out at 25%, the THC in the Indica-dominant strain is responsible for the euphoric and relaxed feeling you get when using Afgoo.
