The number one choice among indica lovers looking for autoflowering plants with heavy, sticky buds! Our classic Afghani #1 has been updated to a feminized, autoflowering seed strain to make it even easier for beginners and indoor growers with limited space.
Afghani #1 Strain Info
There’s something ancient and powerful about the Afghani #1 strain, like lighting up a piece of history that’s been passed down from generation to generation in the shadowy mountains of Hindu Kush.
These autoflowering cannabis seeds from Sensi Seeds come straight from the legendary Afghan gene pool—the same one used to make that sticky black hash that rolled through India in balls of charas decades ago.
Think of Afghani #1 like the wise old monk of marijuana seeds—pure indica power, zero drama, and all about peace.
It’s built to thrive without fuss, offering dense, heavy buds and lush dark foliage that screams quality, even if you’ve never grown a plant in your life.
This is a strain that doesn’t make you work overtime for the good stuff.
From seed to harvest, it wraps up its entire life cycle in around three months—yes, just three.
That’s faster than your houseplants learn to stop dying.
What you get is a plant with medium height—strong central stem, deep green fan leaves, and those fat lateral branches that look like they’ve been hitting the gym.
Each one stacking up sticky buds like they’re on a mission to impress.
Flowering Time & Yield
This one’s a sprinter.
She starts to flower all by herself after 5 to 7 weeks, no photoperiod tricks needed, and she finishes strong in just 7 to 9 more weeks.
That means you’re looking at harvest-ready buds in as little as 70 days.
Yield-wise, you’ll be pleasantly surprised—Afghani #1 seeds produce solid, chunky colas full of trichomes that hold their weight even after drying.
She’s got that dense, resin-soaked structure that hash lovers daydream about.
Indoor growers can expect medium yields, while outdoor setups in cooler climates can still pull decent harvests thanks to the plant’s resilience.
This isn’t some delicate diva—it can handle the chill.
Effects and Aroma
Now let’s talk vibe—because this girl doesn’t play around.
One toke and you’ll feel like someone hit the dimmer switch on your brain’s stress levels.
The sedative effect hits quick and hits deep, wrapping your body in a warm, sleepy hug that makes your couch feel like a cloud.
If you’re a newbie, take it easy—Afghani #1 doesn’t whisper, it knocks gently and then walks you straight into nap time.
Flavor-wise, it’s got that spicy resin tang that rolls across your tongue, followed by earthy sweetness and a smoky backbone that reminds you this is the real deal.
It smells like a mountain temple at dusk—dark, rich, and just a little wild.
THC content isn’t officially listed, but trust us—it hits hard enough to keep your feet planted and your worries floating somewhere above your head.
CBD is low, which means this one’s all about that classic, stoney indica experience.
Grower Tips & What We Love
If you're looking for a strain that forgives your mistakes and still delivers killer buds, Afghani #1 is that loyal friend in seed form.
We’ve seen it bounce back from rough conditions, and its natural resistance to pests and mold makes it a solid pick for growers who don’t want to stress over every little hiccup.
It thrives in cooler climates and doesn’t mind a bit of chill—perfect for outdoor grows in temperate or northern regions.
But give it a stable environment indoors, and it’ll reward you with tight, frosty colas that look like they’ve been dusted in powdered sugar.
This is one of those strains that really shines in a Sea of Green (SOG) setup, where you can pack more plants in and maximize space without needing fancy training techniques.
No topping needed either—just let her do her thing, and she’ll bulk up beautifully on her own.
Honestly, what we love the most is how low-maintenance yet rewarding this strain is—it grows fast, looks badass, and oozes sticky resin from every bud.
Whether it’s your first grow or your fiftieth, Afghani #1 makes you feel like a pro.

FAQ - Afghani #1 Autoflowering
Is Afghani #1 sativa or indica?
Afghani #1 is a pure indica strain, deeply rooted in the traditional landrace genetics of the Hindu Kush mountains.
Indica strains like this one are known for their short, bushy structure and relaxing, body-heavy effects.
In contrast, sativas tend to be taller, take longer to flower, and produce a more cerebral, uplifting high.
If you're after a mellow, full-body chill session, indica is the way to go—and Afghani #1 delivers that in spades.
How long does Afghani #1 take from seed to harvest?
This autoflowering strain finishes its full cycle in around 3 months total, from seed to harvest.
It begins flowering automatically after about 5 to 7 weeks of vegetative growth, then needs another 7 to 9 weeks to finish blooming.
It’s a great option for growers looking for fast turnaround and minimal hassle.
Is Afghani #1 easy to grow for beginners?
Yes, it’s an excellent strain for beginners thanks to its forgiving nature and strong resistance to pests and mold.
It doesn’t require special training techniques or precise light schedules, which makes it very user-friendly for first-time growers.
Can I grow Afghani #1 outdoors?
Absolutely—Afghani #1 is well-suited for outdoor grows, especially in cooler or temperate climates.
Its tough genetics, adapted from high-altitude Afghan regions, make it resilient and capable of handling less-than-perfect conditions.
Should I use topping or pruning techniques with this strain?
We don’t recommend topping Afghani #1 autoflowering plants, as it doesn’t improve yield and may slow down growth.
Instead, let it grow naturally or try a Sea of Green (SOG) setup for the best results and yield.
