Top 4 Tips For Growing Atf Strain

Alaskan Thunder Fuck, also known as the Matanuska Thunder Fuck or simply atf strain is a mysterious strain of weed that traces its origins to the Matanuska Valley of Alaska.

As the name suggests, this hard-hitting strain’s THC level usually lies within the 16 to 23 per cent range, but in some cases can reach up to 27 per cent.

ATF weed strain is believed to have been taken to Alaska in the 1970s from California, where it was mixed with varieties of Russian ruderalis first, and then had Afghani genetics infused into it.

According to regular smokers of this strain, the experience is highly energetic, euphoria inducing and uplifts the mood. Known for its intense odor, the Matanuska tundra’s scent is earthy and can be compared to that of a skunk or diesel.

Now that you know a little about the mystery atf strain, here are a few tips to help you grow ATF at home:

While the hard hitting weed strain can be grown both indoors and outdoors, it is best suited to outdoor conditions. This is partly due to its better suitability to lower temperature conditions and because of its slightly pungent odor which requires extensive ventilation systems to make sure that the odor does not linger around. Growing this plant outdoors can produce a yield of as much as 32 ounces per plant as compared to almost half when it is grown indoors per square metre.

Due to its famed heritage, the Alaskan Thunder strain thrives in colder temperatures. The best season to grow this strain is Autumn with October being the most suitable month. Optimum yields are believed to occur in temperatures ranging from 65-degree Fahrenheit to 85-degree Fahrenheit. Temperatures that are too low can leave the ATF plant susceptible to fungus while higher temperatures can cause the Alaskan Thunder Fuck plant to dry out if not watered properly.

The roots of atf plants in Canada need to be kept warm and are recommended to be planted in trenches rather than pots. To get longer and taller stems, pruning methods like topping and training are more efficient and create more desirable branching and yield.

When considering the time it will take for the atf buds to reach maturity and the flowers to have a quality coating of trichomes, 8 to 10 weeks is the ideal estimation.
