More About Our Critical Purple Auto Seeds And How To Grow Them
Critical Purple Auto is known for its aesthetics when it is growing. The bright and pale purple hues of this plant are a huge hit among breeders who appreciate the look of a plant just as much as they do the taste, aroma, and effects a strain has on the user. Where most cannabis strains grow bright green in the leaves and buds, the Critical Purple Auto strain is completely different. The thick layer of trichomes that covers the exterior of the buds gives the strain a bright purple appearance. Because this is an Indica-dominant strain, the buds are more dense and round.
Amazing Aroma and Flavor Profiles
Critical Purple Auto has a one-of-a-kind flavor and aroma profile. The fruity and earthy taste dances across the tongue after every hit you take. If you break apart the buds, you will get a whiff of a coffee-like aroma that pairs well with the earthiness the strain provides. The aroma is pungent and skunky and will fill the room before you even light it up. If you’re a fan of sweet, herbal, and earthy flavors, then this might just be the perfect strain for you to invest in. The flavor and aroma are a result of the terpenes found in this strain. Beta-Caryophyllene, Beta-Myrcene, and Alpha-Pinene are all present in Critical Purple Auto cannabis plants. These terpenes each add a little something to the genetic makeup of this strain. Beta-Caryophyllene adds a spiciness to the flavor profile, while Beta-Myrcene is what adds the earthy flavor and aroma. Alpha-Pinene, which can be found in pine needles and conifer trees, is what gives Critical Purple Auto its pine-like flavor and aroma when combusted.
Happy, Relaxed, and Euphoric Effects
With 80% of Critical Purple Auto’s genetic makeup being Indica, this strain is uber-relaxing. After your first hit, you will feel a calm rush flow over your entire body. While the cerebral effects are minimal, the physical effects are heavy. This strain is perfect for evening use as it will promote couch-lock even in users who habitually use marijuana. This strain is best suited for solo use as it won’t make you more social like some of the Sativa strains. Make sure you have some snacks close by because you might get a case of the munchies before this strain puts you to bed for the night. For folks who enjoy marijuana minimally, be warned that this strain is strong and hits relatively hard even after the first puff.
Hefty Harvests
The Critical Purple Auto strain of cannabis grows into hefty yields of high-quality buds. If you are growing your cannabis indoors, you can expect to harvest around 350 grams per square meter. If you grow your bud outdoors, then you can anticipate harvesting nearly 400 grams per plant. It takes about 50-60 days to complete the flowering stage of growth if you grow indoors, which is a relatively short grow time. If you were to plant your seeds in late Spring, you should be ready to harvest around the beginning to the end of October. Dialing in the proper conditions indoors will ensure a healthy harvest of massive buds. Growing this strain outdoors requires a bit more maintenance, but if you get the right weather, sunlight, and fresh air, then you should harvest a solid yield at the end of your grow.
Ideal Conditions For Growing Critical Purple Auto Seeds
Critical Purple Auto cannabis is well-suited to cannabis growers of all skill levels. This strain reaches average heights and prefers ample room to grow. Proper airflow is also important. If you’re using a smaller indoor space, you can always free up extra room by trimming your plants’ branches. Critical Purple auto plants can be grown with several mediums and techniques, including hydroponics and soil. While both are popular methods, the former involves submerging your plants’ roots in nutrient-infused water and does tend to speed up growth. Critical Purple auto plants perform best in a mild environment. Ideally, the temperature should be between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit with low humidity between 40-50%. If your local weather matches these conditions, your crop will fare well outdoors. However, you can also set up your growing space inside to ensure that the right temperature and humidity are reached every day. Some cultivators prefer growing indoors as it affords them more control over elements such as temperature and humidity. Critical Purple plants utilize Low-stress training (LST) and/or topping to control the height of your plants and size of your buds. Consider gently bending and adjusting/tying your stems to promote light exposure and more lateral growth. LST and topping will help create an even canopy, which will ensure light gets to all levels of the plant, including the lowest buds. Regardless of the grow, higher light penetration is key to making sure each bud is harvested at its peak.

Not gonna lie, I bought this cause the name sounded cool. But man—dense purple nugs, crazy resin, smooth burn. Now it’s part of my regular rotation.

I’ve had mixed luck with autos before, but this one turned out amazing. A little leafy at harvest but the potency made up for that.
Sean Q. (verified owner)
Honestly? Best auto I’ve done this year. Did minimal training and still pulled just under 3 oz. She handled light changes like a champ. No regrets.

Thought it was hype at first, but this strain shut me up quick. Insane trichomes and it smells like sweet grape funk. Only wish I’d grown two instead of one.

I’m more of an outdoor grower, but this one gave me zero issues despite erratic weather. Short flowering time made it super rewarding. Earthy-sweet smoke too.

1 of my seeds didn’t get past germination. But I guess thats the luck of the draw. the 4 that did make it, I got about 136gr from, not as much as I wanted but its still pretty good for what it is

Grew indoors in a 2×2 under a cheap blurple light. Didn’t expect much, but wow… purple hues popped and the smoke is surprisingly deep and relaxing.

It’s been a joy from start to finish. Grew her in coco under LEDs, and she exploded in week 5. Purple tones kicked in late, but the flavor is unmatched.

My Critical Purple turned out kinda short, but still packed on thick buds. She liked being topped early. Took a bit longer than I expected, but worth it.

Genuinely had no idea what I was doing. Watched a few YouTube vids and hoped for the best. This seed came through like a champ and made me feel like a pro.

grow large buds, what more could I ask for

I don’t usually leave reviews, but I just had to this time. From the smell, to the buzz, to how damn pretty this girl looked under the lights… just wow.
TerpyTom (verified owner)
I’m still blown away by how this smelled during cure. Like a mix of berries and spice. Smooth smoke, gentle high, easy to trim. I’m definitely saving some clones.

Smelled like straight-up grape candy during week 7. Grew short and bushy, exactly what I needed for my PC grow box setup. Fire results, zero stress.

first time growing an auto, probably was the best choice being critical purple auto
SofaBudz (verified owner)
I’m a minimalist grower — soil, water, and vibes. This strain forgave my lazy ways and still came through sticky and strong. Big love.

easy strain to grow, would get it again
Dr. Leafman (verified owner)
Fast germination (2 days!), strong stalk, and no stretching. These genetics are legit. I pushed it with nutrients a bit and it held strong.
