TEC 9 is an Indica dominant cross of a 2001 NL9 and our very own AK Confidential. This strain is another cross of legends that have dominated cannabis cups and been some of the most popular in demand strains to ever grace the menu's of Dutch coffee shops. NL 9 is a cross between the classic strains NL5, White Widow and Durban. All of which are known as heavy hitters which is why we thought it would be fun to cross them with two of the industries other big guns AK-47 and LA Confidential. Plants grow in a typical Indica dominant short size and produce good yields flowering in about 8 weeks. Dry buds appear almost silver in colour from the resin and the smoke has a hash like smell and taste. The knock out high is the stand out feature of this strain. In flower the plant does not have a very strong smell making it good for growers needing to take a little more care with aroma's than others but when smoked the true strength of this strain reveals its self. The high can have a strong couch lock effect but also has an influence of Sativa in the background to add a little more of a euphoric edge to it.
Strain FAQ
How can cannabis enthusiasts learn from regular seeds?
Regular seeds are a gateway to the production of new and exciting strains. They can also show valuable information on cannabis' life cycle and genetics and how to recognise and manage both male and female plants.
Can short cannabis strains still be high yielding?
Surprisingly, yes! Due to the wonders of breeding there are a large range of high yielding short strains available and more are being released every day!
How do environmental circumstances affect these strains' hashy taste?
The plant's environment reportedly affects terpene expression and hashy flavour. Terpene production is said to be affected by soil type, temperature, humidity, and light exposure.
Why do many people prefer strains with a medium-flowering time?
For those seeking yield and potency, 56–90-day-flowering seeds are said to be ideal. This timeframe reportedly allows the plant to completely express its genetic potential, providing a good turnaround without compromising harvest quality or quantity.
Why do indica plants seem different from sativa ones?
Indica plants are short, bushier, and have broad leaves. Due to their mountainous roots, being low and strong protects them from wind. Their tiny design is practical and attractive, making them ideal for indoor gardens.
