How to germinate Purple Kush autoflower seeds

Purple Kush autoflower seeds simply need water, air, and heat to germinate. There are many ways to sprout marijuana seeds, but the easiest technique is the paper towel method, as demonstrated in our germination guide. 

Here’s what it entails.

- You'll need paper towels, water, two clean dinner plates, and your Purple Kush auto seeds.

- Take two paper towels and moisten them. Not so much that there’s water oozing out.

- Lay one of the wet paper towels on the dinner plate.

- Set your Purple Kush autoflower seeds about an inch apart on the paper towel.

- Place the second paper towel to cover the marijuana seeds.

- Remove excess water coming out from the edges of the paper towel.

- Place the second plate on top of the other to form a dome-like structure.

- Set your plates in a warm and dark place, such as a drawer.

- Check on your seeds regularly, ensuring the paper towels are moist throughout since they consume a lot of water.

You should see your cannabis seeds pop and develop a healthy taproot in 1–5 days, and this is when you’ve successfully germinated them. The paper towel method takes the guesswork out of knowing if your Purple Kush autoflower seeds have sprouted because you can easily observe them. Using this method also ensures the germination guarantee for cannabis seeds you bought from us remains intact.

Purple Kush autoflower seeds grow guide

Purple Kush autoflower plants have a typical indica structure, becoming bushy and growing to only 1–2 feet tall. She’s short, like her parents from the Hindu Kush mountains. This plant shoots out a massive main cola, and its moderate height makes it suitable for any indoor cultivation. She does very well in a screen of green (ScrOG) setup and prefers a temperate, continental, sunny, or Mediterranean climate.

Flush one week before harvesting to make its captivating purple color even more pronounced. It's pivotal to control humidity to avoid any bud rot because of the super dense, tight, and chunky nuggets. Lower the humidity to around 40–50% at the beginning of the flowering stage.  You can get away with 55%. Anything over 60 isn’t good. Great air circulation is also vital. 

Purple Kush auto plants are resistant to pests because they find the anthocyanins that make them purple, detestable. This compound also guides pollinators such as butterflies and deters some insects from laying eggs on its foliage by tricking them into thinking the plant’s unhealthy. Anthocyanins protect photosynthetic tissues from stress, acting as a sunscreen for the leaves.

LEDs with the full light spectrum aid in increased anthocyanin production. Only use low-stress training (LST) methods on this cultivar, such as bending to distribute light to the budding sites evenly. Don't use high-stress training methods because the cultivar might switch to flowering, yet you didn't give it time to heal. The leaves and buds turn purple as harvest draws ever closer.  The thick layer of trichomes and orange pistils make the garden look luscious, not to mention the breathtaking aroma.

Purple Kush auto weed has the same quality and potency as its feminized photoperiod predecessor. You won’t have to deal with changing the light schedule or time the right season to plant, unlike her photoperiod sisters. Forget the lower yield when you consider the rapid growth speed that puts anyone in a trance.

Make sure to provide this strain with at least 18 hours of light throughout the entire cultivation so that it can develop to its full potential. Plant germinated autoflower seeds directly into the final pot to avoid stressing the cultivar due to transplanting or damaging the roots. Administer nutrients at ¼ of the recommended dose and then gradually increase as the plant grows and reacts. This auto cultivar isn't fussy when it comes to pH range because of her small root base.

What are the Purple Kush autoflower strain genetics?

Purple Kush usually makes it on most lists that rank the most effective strains in the world. It has a prodigious lineage of the Hindu Kush and Purple Afghani strains, making it a pure indica variety. A bit of ruderalis magic on the Purple Kush strain gives rise to auto Purple Kush seeds. The Hindu Kush is an indica dominant strain from the Hindu Kush mountains between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Purple Afghani is an indica dominant landrace strain from Afghanistan that renders its ravishing color. 

The famous parents of Purple Kush auto seeds adapted to their harsh natural habitats, passing on their genetics to make this wholesome weed sturdy and resilient. Purple Kush originated on the Northwest coast region of the US, mainly in Humboldt County, in the early 2000s. Cultivators could only find clones for this strain since seeds weren’t available back then. It then spread like wildfire to California, Portland, Oregon, and the rest of the country. Thanks to its lineage, auto Purple Kush has an enticing bag appeal and robust growth that farmers appreciate.
