Cherry Bomb is the hard hitting, big yielding strain from Bomb Seeds. The result of crossing our monster yielding Big Bomb with a unique and fruity mother means growers can expect an explosion of flavour and maximum yields.
As the name would suggest Cherry Bomb has a sweet fruity aroma which is matched by the distinctive cherry taste. Think summer fruits with the classic skunk undertones. The buzz starts with an initial head high, settling down into a deep and calming body stone that won’t knock you out for the count.
Cherry Bomb is the ideal strain for both commercial growers and those wanting big yields without compromising on smoke quality. It has a heavy bud structure thanks to its Big Bomb heritage, growing to a medium height of around 100-120cm. The perfect strain for both indoor and outdoor setups, growers can expect to yield 600-650g/m² with an 8-10 week flowering time. Outdoors it will finish late September – early October. Later in the flowering period leaves can turn a purple, cherry colour with buds glistening in THC.
Cherry Bomb is best smoked however you like. It works equally well as a blunt but smoked through a bong it is a real mind opener – perfect for exercising your inner creative urges.
Strain FAQ
What contributes to the cherry flavour?
Myrcene, a common cannabis terpene, sets the tone with its pleasant, earthy scent. In cherry-flavored strains, it interacts with other terpenes to enhance the delicious, sweet cherry flavour and serve as a foundation.
What is the history of these early-finishing strains?
Many of these strains are descendants of landrace strains that evolved in certain regions over generations. Breeders have used these old genetic features to generate hybrids that flower early and offer new tastes, effects, and disease resistance.
Can feminised cannabis strains create male flowers?
Feminised strains are designed to be nearly always female, yet nature can occasionally throw them curveballs. They may produce male flowers under extreme stress such as irregular light cycles or environmental pressure. This shows that even with thorough genetic selection, other factors are necessary to keep plants on track!
How have indica strains adapted to the cold environmental conditions?
The tight, compact buds of indica strains are more than just attractive—they protect against the cold. This compact bud structure keeps cold, damp air out, preventing mould and keeping plants healthy in cold weather.
How do strains suitable for the outdoors vary phenotypically?
Legal growers report that growing the same strain outdoors can produce startling differences in potency, flavour, and growth. Cannabis is said to be very flexible, with its features finely modified by its growth environment.
