Autoflower Critical Purple

Auto Critical Purple Fem is a straightforward and enjoyable grow for cultivators of all experience levels. Through the addition of Ruderalis genes, the plant is hardy and can tolerate harsh weather conditions. It is short and compact, making it easy to hide or fit in small spaces. Furthermore, it matures in a flash – just 10 weeks from sprouting to harvest. This decreases the downtime and allows multiple harvests in a single year. 

This strain is suitable for either indoor or outdoor growing. It will not mind the colder temperatures up north and in fact, it will produce leaves with a vibrant purple hue as the mercury drops. Its height peaks at 80 to 150 cm (30 to 60 inches), but it will branch out laterally. This creates more bud sites that can be exposed to the light. Each plant becomes more efficient and production is boosted.

As an autoflowering strain, Auto Critical Purple does not bloom according to a change in the light schedule. Unlike photoperiod plants that depend on a 12/12 program, it produces flowers by following its internal clock. Inside a grow room, the lights can be kept on for at least 18 consecutive hours a day from the seedling to the flowering stage. Some growers even choose to leave the lights on for a full 24 hours. More light equals more vegetation, although experts can’t seem to agree if this is really an advantage. Some of them point out that the grow lights could raise the temperature too much and cause light burn. 

Nevertheless, this hybrid is not very finicky. Simply keep a close eye on the temperature and relative humidity, and it will not give you any trouble. Due to its short stature and brief life cycle, it does not require any training. Similar to most cannabis varietals, it should be fed with nitrogen during the vegetative stage, whereas phosphorous and potassium are more beneficial for the blossoms. Before harvesting, give the plants a thorough flushing to prevent a chemical taste in the buds.  

The physical effects of Auto Critical Purple take a bit of time to manifest, but you may experience increased mental clarity right from the start. This calm state of mind sets the stage for the body buzz that is soon to follow.

After a few minutes, a warm, tingling sensation spreads through the limbs. You will feel heavy and lethargic, signaling that it’s time to settle down in your favorite armchair. The muscle relaxation intensifies until eventually, you have no choice but to bask in blissful tranquility. 

Total couch-lock is not uncommon, and so this strain is best consumed at the end of the day. You might also experience an increase in appetite, in which case it is a good idea to keep some snacks and drinks within arm’s reach.

If you prefer the ease of growing autoflowers but want to try different effects, we have a huge selection of auto fem seeds to choose from. For a more psychedelic kick, try Auto Northern Lights x Mazar Fem. This strain can neutralize nausea and muscle spasms while delivering the mind-bending trip characteristic of the uber-popular Northern Lights.

If sweet flavors are your jam, though, Auto Blue Fruit Fem is an excellent choice. It has a relatively low level of THC (14%), but it tastes amazingly like blueberry pie. The plant is beautiful, too, with myrtle-green fan leaves and canary-yellow pistils. It contains anthocyanins that produce violet hues, just like Auto Critical Purple.

A balanced high distinguishes Auto Critical x Gorilla Glue Fem. You will get energetic euphoria paired with relaxation. Not to mention, its Gorilla Glue heritage results in exceptionally resinous buds. The entire plant is covered in trichomes, giving it a snow-dusted, Christmas-y appearance.

Finally, for users who aren’t too keen on the psychoactive potential of THC, Auto White Widow CBD Fem is bred to bring out 10% CBD. Its chunky flowers have numerous health benefits, such as the reduction of epileptic seizure episodes. It also engenders more mental resilience for people who are chronically exposed to stress.
