Red Afro 3 Phenotypes
I want a sea of red for Valentines, My bloody Valentine's!!!
Here's the scoop, Momma ran Red Afro this Summer in my outdoor greenhouse. I'll attach a link to that journal. I had three seeds that germinated in the spring. Two I brought outdoors to the greenhouse and one I left to grow in veg indoors. The two that were outdoors we are completely opposite phenotypes one was pink, mauve, white, light purple. I call her my albino red Afro. Her sister plant was deep dark red, purple, with no white no pink just dark.
The third plant has been in veg this whole time over the summer and I have no idea what kind of phenotype I will get from her. Plus she is going to be grown indoors where is the other two were growing outdoors so the environments will be completely different. It will be also interesting to see if the clones (I only took one clone from each Red Afro that was outdoor in the greenhouse, that I had to reveg) if they will show the same as they did when they grew outdoors. So that will be fun to watch
the two clones that are growing in 1 gallon pots right now are slowly getting bushy. I am hoping to get them to grow enough so I can clone them along with the 24 that I have from my third plant and then I will have a sea of red. All showing three different phenotypes, of the same strain.
I know one is very dark red and purple the other is pink and mauve and the third one will be ???
So I hope you join me on the journey of the Red Afro's.

The idea was to make a shorter and more compact Swazi based hybrid
(South Africa area). Goal was to form a more sturdy, fast and better
yielder plant that would fit indoors. Red Afro has proven itself successful in achieving what we planned, adding lots of colours to the mix. Bloody red to more purple and intense dark buds are easily found in some large and heavy branches formed in flower time.
You’ll feel delighted with the first up and being high and not heavy in mind or body. Enjoy Red Afro all day long ! The fruity, floral and hash intense background will make you not to stop grabbing Red Afro buds.
Description
Red Afro is a cross between an African Swazi plant with a Pakistan Chitral Kush. The rationale for this was the quest for a Swazi-based strain that had an altogether shorter, more compact, structure and faster flowering time. The result is a great success; Red Afro produces large, dense colas with dazzling red and purple colours at maturity and which delivers very good yields both indoors and outdoors in somewhere between 65 - 75 days flowering.
The deliciously enticing aromas include red fruits with floral notes and a Kush, hash-like background taste. Its effect is immediately uplifting which slowly evolves into a more relaxing experience.
