SAD (Regular) is a regular-seed line of the well-known Afghan-indica selection sold under the S.A.D. abbreviation: compact, resinous plants with deep relaxation and a sweet-spicy, hashy aroma typical of Afghan heritage. Growth habit may be automatic or photoperiod depending on the exact cross; observe whether plants flower on their own without a light schedule change.

Automatic phenotypes often complete a full cycle in roughly eight to nine weeks from seed indoors in typical setups; photoperiod phenotypes follow standard flowering length once bloom begins. Expect dense, sticky flowers and a strong smell during late bloom.

Terpene character usually leans sweet, hashy, and spicy, with earthy incense notes. The bouquet reads as classic indica rather than fruit-candy modern hybrids.

Effects are typically calming and body-heavy, with grounded euphoria rather than a racing head high. THC is moderate to high depending on phenotype; some versions carry a little CBD.

Regular seeds mean males can appear: sex plants in time unless you are breeding. Favored by growers who want resin, old-school aroma, and a relaxing evening profile.

For long-term storage, keep seeds cool, dark, and dry—an airtight container in a stable environment helps maintain viability. Avoid repeated temperature swings and direct moisture inside the vial.

Phenotype expression depends on environment, substrate, and care. Even well-known lines can show variation in structure, aroma intensity, and finishing time; keeping a grow journal makes it easier to repeat successful runs.

If you grow where it is legal, prioritize clean water, measured feeding, and adequate airflow. Most issues in cultivation trace back to VPD imbalance, overwatering, or poor drainage rather than genetics alone.

Harvest timing is best judged by trichome appearance and overall plant maturity rather than dates alone. When legally permitted, a slow dry and a controlled cure typically preserve terpene detail better than rushing the process.
