S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious S1® – Sweet Seeds’ Award-Winning Indica | High-Resin, Easy-Grow Strain for Relaxed Nights

S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious S1® is Sweet Seeds’ elite selfed version of their legendary Black Domina '98, delivering consistent, high-resin indica power with minimal effort – perfect for growers who want award-winning quality without the fuss.

Are you tired of finicky strains that demand constant attention?

Most high-THC indicas come with a long list of demands: precise feeding, humidity control, training, and a watchful eye for mold. It’s exhausting. You just want something that grows strong, smells amazing, and delivers that deep, body-melting relaxation – without turning your grow room into a science lab.

Imagine your grow space filled with dense, frosty buds that practically grow themselves

Now picture the stress of nutrient burn, overwatering, or a surprise mold attack wiping out weeks of work. The frustration of a plant that stretches too much, wastes light, or produces airy buds with weak effects. That’s the reality of many so-called 'easy' strains. They promise simplicity but deliver disappointment.

S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious S1® is your set-it-and-forget-it indica solution

This isn’t just another easy strain – it’s an award-winning powerhouse bred for resilience and consistency. Self-pollinated from a champion Black Domina mother, it produces short, bushy plants with tight internodes and a strong central stem, making it ideal for small spaces and SCROG setups. It flowers fast in just 8–9 weeks, yields up to 500 g/m² indoors, and is naturally resistant to pests and fungi. You get maximum flavor, resin, and relaxation with minimum input.

Less stress, more success with this all-rounder

Whether you're growing in a closet or a greenhouse, S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious S1® adapts and thrives. Its forgiving nature makes it perfect for beginners, while its complex sweet, musky, and earthy flavor profile and 15–20% THC content satisfy even the most discerning connoisseurs. It’s the rare strain that bridges the gap between simplicity and sophistication.

How to grow S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious S1® for best results

Quick overview: Feminized indica · Sweet Seeds · 8–9 week flower · Low difficulty · Ideal for indoor, SCROG, or discreet outdoor.

Safe start: Germinate in a moist, dark environment at 22–25 °C. Transplant carefully when the taproot is about 1 cm (0.39 in) long. For a stronger start, Klonagel rooting hormone gel boosts root development and reduces shock.

Stable seedling: Keep humidity at 60–70% and provide gentle light. Water lightly and ensure excellent drainage. An airy substrate with Cancerbero Mycorrhizae enhances nutrient uptake and root health from day one.

Directed growth: Use an 18/6 light cycle. This strain has short internodes and doesn’t stretch much, so minimal training is needed. A final pot of 11–18 L (3–5 gal) is ideal. Maintain pH 6.0–6.5 in soil.

Efficient flowering: Switch to 12/12 light. Lower humidity to 40–50%. Support the heavy colas if needed. Feed with a bloom-focused fertilizer like Monster Bloom to maximize resin and yield.

Harvest and refinement: Harvest when trichomes are mostly milky with some amber for a relaxing effect. Flush 7–10 days before harvest. Dry slowly at 18–21 °C (64.4–69.8 °F) and 50–60% RH, then cure for 2–4 weeks in jars for peak flavor.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I’ve grown a lot of indicas over the years, but S.A.D. Sweet Afgani Delicious S1® stands out for its sheer reliability. I first tried it in a small SCROG setup under a 600W HPS, and the plants stayed compact, filled the net perfectly, and produced some of the densest, stickiest buds I’ve ever seen. The smell during drying was incredible – sweet, earthy, with that classic Afghan hash note. The high is exactly what you want from a night-time strain: it melts away stress without knocking you out completely. I’ve recommended it to dozens of first-time growers, and every single one has been amazed at how easy it was and how good the results were. It’s not flashy, it’s not trying to be the strongest or the biggest; it’s just consistently excellent. That’s why it’s won so many awards, and that’s why it’s a staple in my personal grow list.
