Seb's take
Kubanskiy Ubiyza crossed with an undisclosed Far Eastern hybrid — the breeder isn't saying, and one doesn't press a man named after a rifle. Lemony on the nose with sweet undertones, the effect is strong but curiously clear-headed, the sort that lets you keep working rather than lie down.
Where it comes from
Kubanskiy Ubiyza crossed with an undisclosed hybrid, the breeder isn't saying which, and one doesn't press a house named after a rifle. The record credits Far Eastern genetics for intensifying the Ubiyza character, and the result is a sativa-dominant plant that keeps its head. A secretive pedigree on one side, a known quantity on the other, and a name that discourages further enquiry.
Nose & flavour
The record describes a lemony scent with sweet undertones, reminiscent of the Kubanskiy Ubiyza parent but with a new gradation of its own. Beyond that citrus-and-sweet character I will not invent detail the profile omits. A bright, clean nose, then, on the evidence given, the lemon leading and the sweetness rounding it out. Fresh, and honestly so.
The high
No formal effect notes are recorded, but the record is unusually helpful here: the Ubiyza effect is intensified by the Far Eastern side, yet still lets you work and concentrate. A strong but clear-headed experience, in other words, the sort that keeps you upright and useful rather than pinned to the sofa. At 22% THC there is genuine strength behind that clarity. Daytime company for the productively inclined.
Growing it
Fast, she flowers in a brisk 45 to 55 days, quick for a sativa-dominant plant, and stands 100 to 130cm. Yields run a generous 500 to 600 g/m². The speed is the headline: a 70% sativa that finishes on a soldier's schedule is a rarer thing than it sounds, and a welcome one for anyone who dislikes waiting on Haze-length calendars. A productive, efficient plant with an uncommon turn of pace.
