Afghanistan, one of the oldest producing countries in the world that has been the cradle of cannabis and hashish culture for centuries. Many of today's famous cannabis genetics have their roots in Afghanistan.
Purple Afghan Kush Ryder comes from Kush lineage varieties grown in the Hindu Kush mountain range and from crossing with a Cannabis Ruderalis Purpusii specimen over several generations. This combination has resulted in a variety with indica characteristics and a purple autoflowering flowering pattern.
Purple Afghan Kush Ryder can be grown both indoors and outdoors, reaching heights of between 80 and 100 cm, and even more. Its potency is high, with an almost narcotic relaxing effect, which gives it a high medicinal value. The aroma and flavor of this variety, like its predecessor Afghan Kush, evoke good Afghan hash, with intense aromatic notes.
Since its flowering does not depend on the photoperiod, it can be grown at any time of the year outdoors, although its yields are better in optimal environmental conditions. A good method for growing outdoors is to sow at the beginning of good weather and repeat a few days before harvesting the first, which allows you to obtain two or three good harvests a year. Some growers even produce more crops, although in less favorable environmental conditions, these are usually less productive. In indoor cultivation, a cycle of 20 hours of light and 4 hours of darkness is recommended throughout the growth and flowering cycle.
Purple Afghan Kush Ryder combines the best of both worlds: the potency and indica lineage of Afghan Kush, along with the convenience of autoflowering and now in a purple version. Its aroma and flavor of Afghan hashish make it unique. If you are looking for a relaxing and medicinal experience, this variety is an excellent option.

Strain FAQ
Can high-yielding strains adapt to different climates?
Indeed, many of these strains are known to adapt well to a great range of various climates. Breeding ingenuity has created hybrids that reportedly thrive in chilly northern regions and warm, humid tropical conditions.
Does this strain's Central Asian influence mean anything for its terpenes?
Earthy, musky, sweet, and flowery terpenes characterise Central Asian cannabis strains. These unique terpene combinations give these strains a unique experience and are said to be able to aid in relaxation and pain relief.
How varied are mold-resistant cannabis strains?
Besides mould resistance, these strains vary in THC and CBD levels, flavour profiles, and impacts. This ensures a variety of mould-resistant strains for every possible preference.
What gives Hashy seeds their hashish-like flavour?
Cannabis resin gives it its hash-like taste. Strains with high resin glands, or trichomes, are said to offer a stronger, more intense flavour profile that reflects conventional hashish's concentrated resin.
Why are harvest times for outdoor cannabis strains seasonal?
Outdoor cannabis is obviously at the mercy of the seasons, with legal growers typically reaping their bounty once a year in the fall. This natural rhythm dictates the supply and could even sway the cost of these strains in the market. This makes the timing of the harvest a crucial factor for legal outdoor cultivators.
