Potency
Afghan Goo is an Indica-dominant weed strain. This phenotype has been created for veteran smokers because its THC level is quite impressive – 20-25%, depending on the batch and the breeder. This plant has the ability to retain cannabidiol, so its CBD amount is also outstanding, with the highest recorded content of 6-6.15%.
Smells, Tastes, and Terpenes
The smell delivered by the Afghan Goo strain mimics pine and sage because the plant is abundant in bisabolol. There are also some nutty notes brought by limonene. These scents intensify as the nugs are burnt. On the exhale, smokers can notice a sweet flavor characteristic of pinene.

- Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
