Description
Auto Critical Orange Punch has a citrus dominant terpene profile with earthy notes of orange and hash
Auto Critical Orange Punch is just like her photoperiod parent, a very tasty cannabis variety! Her genetic background provides a citrus-dominant aroma and flavor profile. Most phenotypes smell very fruity and sweet. Citrus, orange, and sweet tangerines are the most recognisable aromas and flavors of this THC-rich autoflower. Some plants may also have earthy and piney tones, but these are usually less dominant. During inhalation she tastes mainly of citrus fruit, orange and lemon. In addition, many people experience a more earthy hash taste, which makes the overall smoking experience quite unique.
Auto Critical Orange Punch is suitable for beginners and provides high yields
Auto Critical Orange Punch is an autoflower with a solid XXL yield. Even for the novice grower it is possible to achieve very high yields with this autoflower. She does not require any special growing techniques or feeding schedules. In the right conditions, she can grow into a hefty autoflower with a nice thick main bloom and many heavy side blooms. She is known for her full blooms which can grow as thick as an arm, with few leaves. Very easy to trim and the thick resin layer ensures excellent scissor hash.
What exactly are the genetics in Auto Critical Orange Punch?
Auto Critical Orange Punch is a feminized autoflowering seed variety, the first Dutch Passion auto to use Critical genetics. The genetic base was Grandaddy Purple (Purps) x Orange Bud. This was called Orange Punch, and gave great potency and flavor. But yields were below average until she was crossed with an elite XXL Auto Kritical Bilbo. Auto Critical Orange Punch is one of our strongest strains with abundant yields and white buds that are completely covered with a thick layer of resin and beautiful orange flower hairs.
Auto Critical Orange Punch has thick compact buds that will provide a good yield in a relatively short period of time
Auto Critical Orange Punch is the autoflower seed version of our photoperiod Critical Orange Punch. This stable hybrid cannabis plant has roughly the same Indica and Sativa genetic content and can be regarded as a 50/50 variety. In this autoflower version, ruderalis genes (autoflower genetics) have of course also been crossed to make this strain flower automatically. This results in slightly more phenotype differences between the different plants than in the photoperiod version.
This strain can grow quite fast during the first 5-7 weeks of its life cycle. She grows strong branches that can bear long flowers. Blooms of 30-50 cm are no exception. She is classified as an XXL autoflower for all the right reasons! Her leaf structure is also that of a hybrid, she can grow very large fan leaves that convert a lot of light into energy. By the end of the flowering phase, the thickest branches with the heaviest flowers will need some support. By the 9th – 10th week, the buds will become so heavy that the branches can collapse under the weight.
Her internode distance is short to medium, which makes for dense buds that look truly beautiful. The blooms become real “colas” (buds as thick as coke cans and in the best cases as thick as cola bottles) and have a favourable flower-to-leaf ratio. Her plant structure is medium to large. She usually remains slightly larger than the average autoflower, even in slightly less optimised conditions.
In the hands of a good experienced grower (and in the right conditions) this autoflower can grow very tall. Only a few plants per m2 are usually required for a good harvest. Aside from her high yield, the buds are very resinous and sticky towards the end of the flowering phase. Some phenotypes may take a little longer to fully ripen at the end, these are usually the highest yielding plants.
The genetics used for Auto Critical Orange Punch guarantee the following properties:
- A medium to very large plant with sturdy stems and large dense buds
- A high potency combined with a high yield, a good all-rounder and suitable for novice growers
- Highly aromatic buds with a complex terpene profile with notes of citrus, orange, pine and hash
Auto Critical Orange Punch has a beautiful hybrid plant and bloom structure, which makes for strong plants that can take a beating.
