Il Diavolo is a hybrid strain, resulting from a cross between Critical Mass and Low Ryder, specifically designed to replicate the strength and flavor profile of the Critical Mass with an independence from photoperiod requirements. It originates from a well-regarded selection known as Critical Bilbo from northern Spain, acclaimed for its high yield, prominent aroma, and fruity flavor.
This strain is characterized by its fast, straightforward cultivation process and its suitability for small spaces, making it perfect for beginner cultivators. Due to its rapid flowering cycle, it is recommended to germinate Il Diavolo directly in its final pot. This plant is particularly appealing for growers in northern climates for summer crops, while those in Mediterranean climates can expect two to three harvests per season.
Il Diavolo emits a fruity, sweet smell complemented by acidic fruity and floral notes. Its flavor is distinctly fruity and citrusy. The strain produces an immediate, lasting effect with a low tolerance buildup. Its physical effects are pronounced without being overly sedative, accompanied by slight mental stimulation, making it versatile for various activities. High in CBD, Il Diavolo is also highly suitable for medicinal purposes.

Strain FAQ
Is Big Bud well known in the cannabis world?
Big Bud has both quantity and quality. This strain has won honours for its strength and aroma, confirming its worth beyond its size. Legal growers love it for its high yields and fans for its unique qualities.
How do genetics affect pest resistance?
Some cannabis strains have been genetically modified to repel pests. Thicker leaves, more resin, or natural terpenes that deter pests all make these plants more resistant to this problem.
Do environmental factors alter these strains' fruity flavours?
Definitely. Environmental conditions reportedly affect terpene expression, which defines a plant's flavour. The ideal fruity taste and scent depend on light, temperature, soil composition, and harvest timing.
