There are always lots of requirements to fill when deciding which strain to grow: strength, yield, flavour, ease of growth, suitability to climate etc. There is one marijuana plant that tries to bring together all these features in a perfect balance in order to produce a large yield, short flowering period, and a good smoke.
There are always lots of requirements to fill when deciding which strain to grow: strength, yield, flavour, ease of growth, suitability to climate etc. There is one marijuana plant that tries to bring together all these features in a perfect balance in order to produce the ultimate cash crop: large yield, short flowering period, good smoke. Critical is a plant designed for the 'cash-crop' grower who wants the best of both worlds and is guaranteed to fulfil expectations.
Our Critical strain is an indica-dominant variety that stems from stoning parents Afghani and Skunk. She maintained a short size and rarely exceeds 100cm in height. It has short internode spacing, which will eventually fill up with buds, making it the high-yielding specimen it is. Its small height also makes it suitable for those looking to grow in small spaces, for the more discreet growers.
Grown indoors, it will average 65-75 grams per plant and can easily hit 600 grams per square metre under a 600W light. Grown outdoors, it prefers a warmer climate such as in Spain, Italy, or California and, given the right conditions, will produce over 600 grams per plant. Due to its relatively short flowering time, it can be grown in more northern latitudes (UK, Netherlands); however, it will not reach its full potential as she would indoors.
No other plant from Royal Queen Seeds will yield as much in 7 weeks as Critical Feminized. This short flowering time makes it suitable for growers with a tight schedule. Commercial growers will be pleased with the results in sea/screen of green operations, as it delivers large yields with very little maintenance.
The final key to a good commercial crop is a solid smoke; it wouldn't make sense to have such a high-yielding plant with no power in the puff. Therefore, we are glad to say that Critical offers just as much in the stone as it does in the yield. It brings a nice stoned effect which mellows you down into a relaxed vibration.

Strain FAQ
How long do indica-dominant strains flower compared to sativas?
The fastest flowering strains are indica-dominant, finishing in 45–60 days. This fast flowering phase helps legal growers get their plants to maturity quickly, reducing the time from seed to harvest.
Are there challenges with high-yielding strains?
Indoor cultivation of high-yielding strains can pose challenges such as managing large plant sizes and ensuring adequate light penetration to lower branches. Legal growers often employ advanced training techniques and may require more robust support structures to handle the weight of the buds.
Does every early-finishing strain have Indica dominance?
Indicas have a shorter flowering period and so are normally involved somehow, however breeders have also created fast-flowering Sativa and hybrid strains. This is very useful as breeders can select from a larger range of potential genetic attributes.
