S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious F1 Fast Version by Sweet Seeds – Fast-Flowering Indica with Sweet, Musky Aroma

S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious F1 Fast Version by Sweet Seeds is a photoperiod-dependent, feminized cannabis strain that delivers top-tier indica effects and aromatic excellence in record time—just 6–7 weeks of flowering.

Still using slow, old-school indicas that take forever to finish?

You know the struggle: long waits, mold risks, and inconsistent flavors. You want something fast, reliable, and rich in that classic Afghan taste—but without sacrificing quality or potency.

Wasting weeks on slow flowering and underwhelming harvests?

Every extra week in flowering means more electricity, more risk of pests or mold, and delayed gratification. If your current strain takes 9+ weeks to finish, you're burning resources and missing out on multiple harvests per year. And if the flavor is flat or the yield disappointing, what’s the point?

The fast, flavorful upgrade your grow deserves

S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious F1 Fast Version cuts one week off the flowering cycle compared to its legendary S.A.D. S1® parent—without losing any of the sweet, musky aroma or resin production. Bred from a cross between S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious Auto® and an elite Black Domina '98 clone, this F1 hybrid delivers compact, vigorous plants with dense, trichome-rich buds in just 6–7 weeks. Whether you're growing indoors under LEDs or outdoors in a Mediterranean climate, this strain finishes early and rewards with up to 500 g/m² or 550 g/plant.

Why this strain finishes faster and hits harder than your current indica

Sweet Seeds didn’t just speed it up—they perfected it. By combining the rapid flowering of an autoflowering lineage with the power and depth of a classic Black Domina, they created a photoperiod strain that’s built for efficiency. You get the control of a photoperiod plant with the speed of a fast auto. The 90% indica dominance ensures a compact structure perfect for SOG or stealth grows, while the intense resin production makes it ideal for extractions. Plus, the sweet, earthy, hash-like aroma fills your jars with that nostalgic Old School vibe—no chemical aftertaste, just pure terpene magic.

Who this strain is perfect for

Whether you're a seasoned grower chasing efficiency or a beginner looking for a forgiving, high-reward plant, S.A.D. F1 Fast Version fits the bill. It’s especially ideal for those who value:

• Fast results without sacrificing quality or flavor.
• Indoor growers using limited space or SOG/SCROG techniques.
• Outdoor cultivators in warm, dry climates aiming for early harvests.
• Extract lovers seeking high resin production for hash or concentrates.
• Anyone who appreciates the deep, calming effects and rich terpene profile of Old School Afghan strains.

How to grow S.A.D. F1 Fast Version without complications

This strain thrives with a simple, low-stress approach. Start with a quality seedling stage using a well-aerated substrate like Premium Coco Substrate Pre-Fertilized Plagron to ensure strong root development. Keep lighting at 18/6 during veg and switch to 12/12 to trigger flowering. Due to its rapid cycle, avoid aggressive pruning—gentle LST is enough to maximize light exposure. In flowering, maintain humidity at 40–50% to prevent mold, and support heavy colas if needed. For optimal flavor and smoothness, flush with FloraKleen 7–10 days before harvest. Cure buds slowly in glass jars for 3–4 weeks to enhance aroma and smoothness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is S.A.D. F1 Fast Version autoflowering?

No, it’s a feminized photoperiod-dependent strain. It requires a change to 12 hours of light per day to initiate flowering.

How does it differ from S.A.D. S1®?

It’s one week faster in flowering while maintaining the same aromatic quality, yield, and resin production. It’s an F1 hybrid, not a selfed version.

Can I grow this outdoors in a humid climate?

It performs best in dry, warm climates. In humid areas, ensure excellent airflow and monitor for mold, especially in late flowering.

What’s the best way to maximize yield?

Use low-stress training (LST) to expose more bud sites, maintain optimal light penetration, and feed with balanced nutrients like Sensi Grow A+B Coco during growth.

Is it good for making extracts?

Absolutely. Its high resin production and rich terpene profile make it excellent for hash, rosin, or concentrates.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I’ve grown a lot of indicas, but few deliver like S.A.D. F1 Fast Version. I used to stick with S.A.D. S1® for its flavor, but the extra week in flowering was a drag—especially when I wanted to stack harvests. When I tried this F1 version, I was blown away: same dense, sticky buds, same sweet-musky punch, but ready a full week earlier. I grew four plants in 18 L pots under 600W HPS, used LST to spread the canopy, and harvested 480 g/m² after exactly 7 weeks of flowering. The curing process brought out even more complexity—think ripe fruit meets old-school hash. It’s now my go-to for fast, high-quality indica harvests. I’d recommend it to anyone who values speed, flavor, and reliability. Just don’t overfeed it—this one thrives on simplicity.
