Afghani Gold is a feminised photoperiod strain from Spliff Seeds, created by pairing an Afghan mother with a Skunk #1 father. The aim was to boost the yield of the classic Afghan, and the outcome is an almost entirely Indica plant with a compact, conical habit. She tolerates a wide range of watering and feeding routines, which makes her a relaxed choice for home growers, though she benefits from a little extra room and suits natural training or a scrog frame. Phenotypes are notably consistent, with stretched, dense main flowers that carry plenty of resin. Leaf coverage is light, so the buds are quick to tidy up at harvest. Aromas recall top-grade Afghani hash, and the taste is sweet, fruity and earthy. The effect is a strong, heavy Indica feel that settles the body. Flowering takes about eight to nine weeks, and she can be grown indoors or outdoors in suitable climates, with outdoor harvests typically in October.
