Humboldt Afghani is Twenty 20 Genetics' Afghani, first sold as an S1 from a clone and later rebuilt as V2 from two outcrosses, Afghani × Snow-G and Afghani × Strawberry Blonde, kept for staying close to the original's smell, flavour and effect.

Bud structure
Density varies with the grower and conditions — treat this as a tendency, not a guarantee.
The record above is the cultivar. Each grower's jar is its own plant — here is how their lots measure, from lab panels New York menus print.
“Sour grape and skunk, with a lift you don't expect from an indica.”
The breeder describes a short, early plant that ripens to deep purple and smells of sour grapes, fuel, ripe strawberry and skunk, with an artificial-candy edge. Its effect, in the breeder's words, is surprisingly uplifting for an indica: long-lasting but not overwhelming.
Provisional: the only description is the breeder's, and the New York grower has not said whose seed, or which version, it grows.
Did you try it?
Humboldt Afghani is typically described with aromas of grape, gassy, berry and skunky and flavours of grape, berry and sweet. Aroma and flavour vary with grower, batch and freshness.
Humboldt Afghani is commonly associated with effects such as uplifted. Effects are subjective and vary with the dose, the way cannabis is taken and the individual — this is sensory guidance, not a guarantee.
Humboldt Afghani is classified as indica in the SŌMA catalog. These labels are a loose shorthand rather than a precise prediction of effect; studies find they do not reliably track a plant's genetics or chemistry.
By sensory profile, the closest strains in the SŌMA catalog include Hood Candyz, Glitter Bomb and Detroit Purps. SŌMA matches on aroma, flavour and effect rather than name alone.
