Afpak Strain — Effects, Genetics, Grow Guide & Where to Buy
Afpak is one of the most-searched cannabis strains in the United States, but the data behind the hype is what holds growers' attention. It is a indica-dominant (74% indica / 26% sativa) testing at roughly 22% THC, with a flowering window of 8-10 weeks under a 12/12 photoperiod. This guide pulls together the lineage, the effects, the grow data, and the practical answer to "where can I buy Afpak seeds in the USA" in one place.

Afpak Effects & Experience
The dominant effects of Afpak are relaxed, sleepy, happy, and the experience is more nuanced than a simple high/low/sedating label would suggest. Onset is gradual rather than abrupt, the peak holds for roughly an hour, and the comedown is smooth — which is why this strain shows up in so many "daily driver" lists from experienced consumers.
Growing Afpak
Growing Afpak fits indoor growers in compact spaces; indica genetics stay short and bushy without aggressive training. Afpak is photoperiod, which means you control when it flowers by switching from 18/6 (vegetative) to 12/12 (flowering). Most indoor growers veg for 4-6 weeks before the flip. Indoor yields land around 450-550 g/m² under quality LED, and outdoor plants given full sun and 5-7 gallon containers reliably produce 500-700 g/plant. Expected plant height is 120-180 cm, with intermediate cultivation difficulty. Practical tips that move the needle: apply low-stress training in week 2 of veg — bend the main stem horizontally and tie down to expose lower nodes; and top once at the 4th node to encourage 4-6 even main colas instead of one dominant cola. The most common challenge growers report is calcium and magnesium supplementation under bright LED lighting; cal-mag at 2-3 mL/gal from week 2 prevents the most common deficiency.

What is the THC content of Afpak?+
