Auto Hindu Kush
So I recently finsihed a grow with some of Lowlife's Auto Hindu Kush and thought I would post a quick write up about my experience with it as there doesn't seem to be much info regarding it. Take my experience with a grain of salt though, because this was a seed run and I had limited phenos due to poor germ rates.
Seed Quality: This is one of my knocks against this strain. The seeds were of poor quality with many small immature seeds. Considering that these seeds were a bit expensive for a non-fem variety I expected big, healthy looking seeds. I only got a 60% germ rate .
Growth: The seeds that did germinate were the picture of health and grew quite vigorously. I was growing these along with Mdanzig's Sour 60 and SGS's Pinkbud. They grew larger than Pinkbud, but smaller than the Sour60. However, both other strains finished faster than the Auto Hindu. However, this was a seed run so that definately messed with the finishing times. I ended up taking everything at 10 weeks.
Harvest/Yeild: Ok. This is where the Auto Hindu shines to me. It yeilded dense little kush nuggets. It definately looked like kush. I could only imagine how sexy they would have looked with the calyx swell if I would have grown these as sinse. However, not a big yielder. I think I averaged about 7 grams per plant in 1 gallon growbags of organic soil under a 115w LED.
Aroma: While growing these did not smell at all unless I rubbed the leaf or squeezed some nug . When rubbed you get a faint lemony/petrol odor which I loved.
Smoke: Remember that this was fully seeded bud that was picked somewhat early. With that in mind, this is some smoothe tokage. Super smoothe smoke with no expansion. Slight lemony taste on the exhale. The high is also very smoothe. No initial rush, just pure relaxation for the mind and body. Only lasts about 1.5 hrs for me though. Very good for chilling in the evening.
Breeding Material: As this was a seedrun I thought I would also share my thoughts regarding the AHK as a breeder. Out of the 3 strains I was running I chose a AHK stud to father them all. No intersex flowers (S60 ) and stunk of burnt rubber/petrol. I used this stud to hit up a female OG Kush as well... WOO!!! Will update at a later date once I test results.
Autoflower: Of course it did.
Overall: I would give this strain a solid 7.5. Would rate it higher if seeds were better quality, price was cheaper, and the strain was more stable. However, I believe there are some gems lurking in this line for potential hobby breeders.
