Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Pure Afghani crossed with a Sativa-leaning Skunk, and the Afghan side wins out on patience — finished in just 55-60 days despite that Sativa share. Lemon, earth and citrus on the nose; the effect stays relaxed, happy, calming throughout. Cold weather can turn the buds red or purple, which only flatters her.

Where it comes from

Pure Afghani crossed with a Skunk line, from Advanced Seeds — the grounded indica heritage of one parent meeting the broader character of the other. The Afghan side wins out where it counts, pulling the flowering time in short despite the Skunk's more sativa-leaning tendencies. A cross that inherits the better features of both, and settles the argument in favour of patience. Dependable stock on either side.

Nose & flavour

Lemon leads, bright and clean, over an earthy base with a further citrus lift — a fresher, more citric nose than the Afghan half alone would give. The Skunk parent adds a little pungency beneath, but the citrus is what carries it. Zesty and grounded together.

The high

Relaxed, happy and calming throughout — a gentle, even effect that settles without overwhelming. There is no sharp cerebral edge here; it eases toward contentment and stays there. An accommodating sort, and forgiving of the hour.

Growing it

Quick and manageable — flowering in 55 to 60 days, and staying a tidy 70 to 100cm indoors, though she will run to 200 to 300cm outdoors given the freedom. She handles poor weather and colder climates well, and in the cool her buds may turn red or purple, which only flatters her. Yields land at 400 to 500 g/m². THC sits at 17 percent. Forgiving of a less experienced hand, and rewarding for it.
