Critical +

Information about Critical + by Dinafem

Critical + is one of the most famous and best-selling seeds from one of Spain’s most reputable seed banks, Dinafem. This strain is widely cultivated due to its quality, fast flowering, and high yield. This indica-dominant seed is the result of crossing Big Bud with a top-quality Skunk strain.

Vegetative behavior

Regarding its vegetative behavior, Critical + develops a structure more typical of a sativa than an indica. It tends to stretch quite a bit, reaching up to two and a half meters in a short time. This characteristic makes it ideal for SOG or SCROG cultivation. It also has a wide internodal distance, long, thin leaves, and large, dense, heavy buds typical of its indica dominance. The buds are so heavy that it is advisable to use stakes to support the branches. It is also necessary to use carbon filters because of its very strong aroma.

Indoor

Indoors, it is a very popular plant since it grows as fast as it flowers, allowing excellent harvests in just 45–50 days. This makes it possible to carry out one more cultivation cycle per year, maximizing profitability and achieving up to 625 grams per m².

Outdoor

When grown outdoors, Critical + performs exceptionally well in mild climates such as those of California or the Mediterranean. Caution is needed in humid areas, as it tends to retain moisture, which can lead to fungal problems. However, since its flowering is very fast, it will probably be ready to harvest before humidity sets in. When properly cared for, Critical + can yield up to 1300 g per plant, ready for harvest in early October.

Organoleptic properties

As for its aroma, it stands out for its lemony citrus notes, making it completely unmistakable. The effects are mainly indica, with a strong physical and sedative sensation that immerses you in deep relaxation. An ideal effect to combat stress.

Awards

Finally, it’s worth noting that Critical + has been winning awards since its release in 2005. Some of these awards include:
