indica-dominant strainAuto Afghan
Auto Afghan combines Afghani and Ruderalis genetics to create an indica-dominant Automatic. Earthy, woody and spicy hash notes define the aroma, accompanied by sweet and citrus accents. The effects are predominantly described as body-focused, balancing and sleepy, sometimes also with euphoria and couch-lock.

Editorial profile
Auto Afghan in detail
Origin & classification
Auto Afghan transfers a traditionally Afghan-influenced strain profile into an autoflowering form. The genetic basis listed in the dataset is Afghani and Ruderalis. The Afghani side provides the historical and aromatic connection, while the Ruderalis component accounts for light-independent flowering initiation. The strain is described as indica-dominant; no specific breeder is recorded in the available data.
Aroma & flavour
Aromatically, Auto Afghan clearly follows classic hash profiles. Deep earthy and woody impressions take centre stage, combined with pronounced spice and a nuance reminiscent of incense. The structured master data also adds sweet and citrus accents. As a result, the profile is not exclusively dark and resinous, but gains brighter contrasts. The aftertaste is described as heavy and almost resinous, reminiscent of traditional Indica strains.
Terpene profile
The source description identifies Myrcene, Caryophyllene and Pinene as defining terpenes. The dataset also lists Humulene, Limonene, Alpha-Phellandrene, Borneol, Eucalyptol and Phytol, among others. As only one source is available, these additional entries should not be understood as an identical composition for every plant. The most reliable finding is the recurring combination of earthy depth, peppery spice, wood and a touch of freshness.
Effect tendency
The effect profile is predominantly described as body-focused. Strong relaxation, sleepiness and possible couch-lock are mentioned; euphoria and a balancing sensation also appear. The description additionally mentions increased appetite. Such impressions are subjective and may vary depending on dose, person and batch. Nevertheless, the data consistently depict a calmer profile in which physical heaviness is emphasised more strongly than sustained activation.
Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance
There is a clear data conflict concerning the cannabinoids. The master data lists THC up to 18 percent and CBD up to 2 percent, while the source text gives 15 to 20 percent THC and CBD up to 1 percent. These figures cannot be reliably standardised based on the single available source. Regardless, laboratory values are fundamentally dependent on phenotype and batch. Neither a consistent flowering time nor specific information on growth, height or yield is documented for Auto Afghan. The profile should therefore be presented through its origin, Automatic characteristic, hash aroma and the calm effects described repeatedly.
