Krypto Chronic Auto: Delightfully Robust
These medium plants of long, thick buds sprout from a genetic juggernaut in the cannabis seed world. The plant’s leaves are shorter the higher up you get on the plant. The buds are pale green in color due in part to the fact that they are covered in white crystal resin, ultimately changing the exterior color of the buds. A closer inspection reveals that the leaves form a star when seen from above. The buds feature small amber hairs and release an amazingly potent aroma. When harvested, the nuggets you’re left with are dark green and orange and incredibly dense. Breaking them apart fills the air with that welcoming aroma. Krypto’s parent strain, “Chronic,” has won over a dozen major awards in the cannabis world, making Krypto a winner by proxy. Even though Krypto Chronic hasn’t taken home any awards, it is highly regarded with growers and users alike for its durability and yields. The THC content is also solid. With tons of great reviews online, this strain is gaining major traction and finding its way into more and more grow rooms internationally.
Growing Tips for Our Seeds
This strain can be grown indoors or outdoors by all levels of growers. First-timers rejoice, as this strain is easy for folks who are starting their cultivation journey with Kryto Chronic. The strain really thrives in warm, sunny, and somewhat humid environments. You will need a climate similar to that of California in the summertime to ensure you make it through each stage and hit your harvest. If you don’t have good weather where you live, then indoor growing is going to be your best bet to have a quality return on your investment. Once you bring this strain to harvest, you are going to want to grow it over and over again.
Dial in Your Growing Conditions
- Indoor or Outdoor: Krypto Chronic Auto cannabis plants can be grown indoors and outdoors by novice growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is between 70-85 degrees Fahrenheit. During the vegetative stage, Krypto Chronic benefits from around 18-24 hours of light each day. Because this is an autoflower strain, you do not need to change the light cycle to induce flowering. This will happen on its own.
- Moisture control: Humidity levels of approximately 40-50% during the vegetative phase, gradually decreasing to 30-40% during the flowering stage. Decreasing the humidity will help keep mold and mildew off of your plants.
- Training Techniques: The application of advanced techniques such as pruning, topping, low-stress training (LST), high-stress training (HST), the Sea of Green (SOG) method, and Screen of Green (ScrOG) approach can significantly boost yield. Monitor the trichomes for the ideal milky white appearance to determine the precise moment for harvest.
