K8 has an aroma and flavour of intense, fresh Citrus. It is a 50/50 hybrid cannabis strain that was bred from Afghani, Cheese and Kush strains.
It is a robust plant suitable for a range of environments and which promises large yields of big, resinous buds with a well-balanced high. Flowering takes about 9 weeks and plants will be ready in early October in northern latitudes.
Strain FAQ
How does stress come into high yielding strains?
Yields are often said to be increased by stress training methods like LST and HST. These strategies bend the plant to improve light and airflow, which it is reported boosts bud formation.
Which terpenes contribute to the citrus taste?
The terpene Terpinolene adds richness to the citrus aromas with pine, flowery and herb undertones. Despite not being citrus-scented, it contributes to the citrus profile.
How has looking for the perfect 50/50 hybrid affected cannabis breeding?
The pursuit of balance has driven cannabis breeding innovation. It's about unlocking new genetic possibilities and understanding the plant better, paving the door for future strain development.
Has rushing to beat the cold affected strains' cannabinoid content?
The pressure to mature before colder weather doesn't reportedly affect these strains' cannabinoid compositions. Due to their genetic diversity, they are said to be able to produce a wide range of effects.
Are feminized strains known for having consistent cannabinoid levels?
Yes, consistent cannabinoid profiles are to be expected with feminised strains. These plants are genetically adjusted for qualities like THC and CBD production, so a more uniform output can be expected. This benefits those who need exact cannabinoid levels for medical or recreational use.
