How to grow Critical Auto
Seb's take
Auto Critical+ bred back onto Critical+ for an 80% Indica strain that keeps things simple: beginner-friendly, stable, and built for the evening rather than the morning. Lemon and pine on the nose, earthy and floral underneath; the high is happy and relaxed, tingly before it turns properly sleepy. Forgiving of enthusiasm, and reliable outdoors.
Growing Critical Auto: what to expect
An autoflower: she flowers on age, not on light hours, which removes the single biggest way to get the schedule wrong. The auto versus photoperiod lesson explains what that changes — which is nearly everything.
Flowering runs the standard 10 weeks — no surprises, which in this business is a compliment. The flowering stage guide covers what each of those weeks should look like.
A middling 130 cm or so at maturity — tall enough to yield, short enough to manage. Standard tent territory; the light planner sorts the hanging height.
The yield is modest — honest about what it is. What she lacks in volume she asks for in fewer demands; the harvest guide applies at any scale.
Breeder figures put THC around 18% — firmly in the strong band. The number speaks for itself; we'll not add adjectives to it.
She smells of earth and heritage; nothing invented, nothing added.
Grower reports give her a relaxed lean: unhurried company for an unhurried evening.
