Afghan Kush Ryder is a cross between Afghan Kush and Ruderalis.
Our Afghan Kush comes from Kush strains with 100% Indica genes cultivated in a small area in the Hindu Kush mountains in Northern Pakistan.
This cross is a good example of Cannabis Ruderalis, which, over the generations, has been crossed and re-crossed to produce a strain with Indica characteristics and autoflowering genetic programming of Ruderalis. Afghan Kush Ryder can be grown indoors or outside and can reach between 40-80cm or even higher. The effect is extremely potent, so relaxing that it’s almost narcotic, which is why the medicinal value is so high.
The taste and aroma, like its predecessor, Afghan Kush, evoke the best very aromatic Afghan hash. As flowering does not depend on the photoperiod, she can be grown at any time of the year although yields improve the better the environmental conditions.

Strain FAQ
Can plant structure affect insect resistance?
Yes, leaf density and structure can affect a cannabis plant's pest resistance. Compact plants with dense foliage may provide a pest-free microclimate in the canopy, increasing their resilience.
Why are short-flowering strains popular?
Strains that flower in 55 days are popular for reducing the time investment necessary or in setups with limited space. Their rapid response to different environments lets legal growers maximise yield quickly.
Why has Afghan Kush historically produced hashish?
Afghan Kush's high resin content is due to its long history of hashish farming. The strain's sticky, resinous buds are reportedly ideal for manufacturing charas and other traditional hash forms which is a cultural custom in the area.
Why do some cannabis strains smell like incense?
Incense-scented strains frequently come from landrace strains from India and the Middle East. Cannabis' various terpenes give it its fragrance.
Why do legal indoor cannabis growers need strain-specific environments?
Indoor cultivation offers the potential to fulfil each cannabis strain's dream circumstances. By tailoring temperature, humidity, and illumination cycles to each strain, legal growers may achieve uniformity and quality that's impossible to match outside.
