Seb's take

Seb Silverback

A five-way cross running back through Colombian Gold, Highland Thai, Mexican, Afghani #1 and Northern Lights Special, and about as easy to grow as cannabis gets. Citrus, floral pine and earth on the nose; the effect combines a proper body stone with a sharp head buzz, among the more potent she'll meet. Fast to flower, with a pungent, noble-wood aroma no carbon filter fully tames.

Growing AK: what to expect

Feminized, so you'll not be sexing plants or evicting males. Photoperiod, so veg lasts exactly as long as you decide — see the vegetative stage on how long that ought to be.

Expect around 8 weeks in flower — textbook timing. Textbooks, for once, being useful: here's ours.

Compact at around 90 cm, which makes her an easy houseguest in a small tent. The light planner will tell you exactly how close your light can sit.

She produces respectably: 500 g/m² or thereabouts when treated well. Consistency is her selling point — feed her properly and she keeps her end of the bargain.

Earthy on the nose — the old-school profile, done properly.

Effects report as chiefly uplifting — she raises the tone of a room rather than lowering the lights.
