Growing Kush XL Autoflower Seeds

Whether you have a large or small grow space, Kush XL Autoflower will do just fine, as she’s a small and stocky plant suitable for a grow room or even a stealth box due to her Ruderalis genetics - and her lack of dependency on light cycles.

Since she’s an autoflowering strain, advanced techniques such as stress training aren’t required for these plants to reach their full potential, and though you can improve your yield with a Sea of Green (SoG) technique, this is not recommended for those new to cannabis cultivation, as it requires a more experienced skillset.

Indoors, Kush XL Auto prefers an imitation subtropical environment - which essentially translates to a steady temperature range of between 21° and 26°C, and a Relative Humidity (RH) level of around 40% to 50%. These conditions are particularly important during the plant’s flowering period, and will help to boost the final harvest if maintained well.

This marijuana takes between 8 to 10 weeks to reach maturity, and should yield around 400 grams per square meter. The end harvest will vary for outdoor growers, coming in at between 200 and 300 grams per plant. Once again, even outdoors the environment must be optimal for this hybrid to thrive - warm, semi-humid climates such as that in the Mediterranean are best, preferably in an area with little to no likelihood of adverse weather conditions.
