Mazar Auto by 420 Genetics
Afghan Mazar × Cannabis Ruderalis
Mazar Auto, an indica-dominant autoflower developed by 420 Genetics, originates from the hash-producing regions of Afghanistan. It combines classic Afghan Mazar genetics with Cannabis ruderalis for a faster, more accessible cultivation cycle while preserving its resinous indica traits.
Appearance
Mazar Auto typically grows into a compact plant, reaching heights of 60-100 cm indoors. It features dense foliage with broad, dark-green leaves and tight internodal spacing, creating a bushy structure. The buds are dense and conical, with a high calyx-to-leaf ratio, often becoming frosty with trichomes as they mature. Some phenotypes may display faint purple hues under cooler temperatures.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Mazar Auto is characterized by earthy and hash-forward notes, reminiscent of Afghan temple balls, layered with pine resin and a subtle peppery spice. As it matures, the scent deepens with hints of sandalwood and incense. Upon inhalation, the flavor profile mirrors the aroma, presenting earthy tones, resinous pine, and a peppery, incense-like finish with a woody, cedar aftertaste.
Effects
Mazar Auto is known for delivering a calming and deeply relaxing experience, often described as a body-centered effect. Its indica heritage contributes to a sedating quality, making it a preferred choice for nighttime use. This strain is reported to promote tranquility and ease, aligning with its Afghan landrace origins.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
The dominant terpenes in Mazar Auto are Myrcene, contributing to its earthy notes, and Caryophyllene, which provides a warm, spicy character. Humulene is also present, often contributing to woody nuances. The cannabinoid profile typically features THC levels between 15-21% and less than 1% CBD.
Growing
As an autoflower, Mazar Auto flowers based on age rather than light cycles, with a total crop cycle of approximately 70-85 days from seed. It is well-suited for small spaces due to its compact stature. The plant generally requires minimal training, though gentle techniques like low-stress training can optimize light penetration and yield. It is relatively hardy, benefiting from controlled environmental conditions.
Origins & Lineage
Mazar Auto was bred by 420 Genetics, combining a Mazar strain derived from the hash regions of Mazar-i-Sharif, Afghanistan, with a Cannabis ruderalis donor. This cross preserves the resin production and calming effects of its Afghan indica parentage while incorporating the day-neutral flowering trait from ruderalis, enabling a faster harvest.
