Dr. Krippling Seeds has a knack for developing exotic strains. Most of which have exceptional yields and unique flavors including their famous Afghan Cow, which has dominated the cannabis industry with its high THC levels of 18% to 22%.

In developing the strain, the creators use three cannabis strands – Ash, Kaya 47, and Kali Mist. The first two are descendants of the legendary Afghani, which has spawned children with tranquilizing effects all over the world. Meanwhile, the last is the Sativa-dominant herb responsible for Afghan Cow’s mental clarity and high-flying cerebral high.

The resulting offspring is a hybrid with great wake-and-bake qualities. And, because of this, casual users with work ahead of them need not doubt Afghan Cow ability to improve the flow of thoughts and increase creativity without feeling burned out.

Afghan Cow is also quite an eye-catching strain to many growers. Its dark green buds are robust with trichomes, alluding to its intense potency, and are densely covered by brown hairs. The plant from which it blooms from also sparkles with a thick coat of resin that make the grow room shine when lighted upon.

The same psychoactive compound, in high levels, produces painkilling qualities that relieve various types of aches and pain beginning from the temples. It also soothes swelling and redness in inflamed areas. Meanwhile, its energizing buzz gets rid of physical fatigue.

Growing

It is easy to obtain the means to cultivate Afghan Cow. Seeds are sold online by a number of vendors in feminized form which assures aspiring growers of a full batch of females with calyxes that are filled to the brim with resin.

With that said, Afghan Cow brings out the best qualities from both its Indica and Sativa heritage. It grows tall but is quite resistant to various problems caused by sudden changes in temperature and humidity such as mold or mildew. It is also one that, in spite of its propensity for a warm, Mediterranean climate, will prosper in the cooler weather of the northern hemisphere.

Still, there are many growers that prefer cultivating the strain indoors where factors such as temperature, lighting, and humidity can be easily adjusted. Moreover, such areas offer added protection against pests. However, it may need to be topped early as its lanky structure can grow too tall for its own space. Special techniques such as the Screen of Green method will also help bring out the plant’s full potential.

Flowering Time

Indoors
Afghan Cow, unlike most Sativa-dominant strains, has a short indoor flowering period of 8 to 9 weeks wherein each square meter produces between 16 to 30 ounces of buds. Applying the Screen of Green method helps the plant blossom a week earlier.

Outdoors
In the northern hemisphere, Afghan Cow flowers in October around the second to the last week. Growers usually harvest 23 to 46 ounces of buds per plant.
