This plant won the 1st High Life Cup in Barcelona. The most interesting feature of this strain is without a doubt the intense aroma and taste that it produces; it smells like fruity skunk. It must be noted that its smell is very strong and easily noticeable. It is important to emphasize that when smoked, even mixed with tobacco, the original taste comes through strongly. It is really intense from start to finish and a real pleasure to smoke, leaving a great aftertaste. It grows like a sativa and it looks a sativa with slim, narrow leaves, not too dark, long and quite thin stems for the size of their flowers. It has a lot of side branching with a short internodal distance which improves production. It is advisable to control the height before flowering, due to its tendency to grow rapidly during this period. During this flowering period it shows all its potential, when what looks like a sativa becomes a super-producer that outstrips all other strains. It is great for SCROG systems; flower development is really fast and it is ready to harvest in 45/50 days with 12 hours of light indoors. Outdoors it is also a great producer, flowering fast and ripening completely by the 4th week of September; it can have mould problems but, being a fast flowering plant, can be harvested without significant loses. It has high resin production and very high strength effect, which a combined physical and mental effect.
Strain FAQ
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.
Critical Mass challenges?
Critical Mass attracts mould due to its thick buds and big yields. To keep those lush buds in top shape, it is said to be necessary to monitor ventilation and humidity, especially in poor regions.
Are indoor conditions best for finicky strains?
Absolutely. Indoor cultivation is said to be the best for rare, finicky strains that don't thrive outside. By tailoring their habitat, these rare plants are said to be able to thrive and preserve unique cannabis genetics.
Why are these strains stinky?
The skunk-like aroma originates from myrcene's earthy and musky overtones and humulene's earthy and woody undertones. Thiols, sulfur-containing chemicals, also contribute to the skunk smell.
What helps tall cannabis strains survive in different climates?
Their exceptional height and structural design let them adapt to temperate and tropical regions. Tall strains are reportedly ideal for sunny outdoor spots since they absorb the most sunlight.
