How to grow BatGum
Taste
Seb's take
A five-way hybrid of Skunk, Northern Lights, Ortega, Afghani SA, and Hash Plant, bred by Hero Seeds under their comic-book naming scheme — appropriately, for a strain assembled from quite so many secret identities. She grows readily indoors or out, highly resinous, with yields around 500g/m².
Where it comes from
A five-way hybrid from the Spanish breeder Hero Seeds, Skunk, Northern Lights, Ortega, Afghani SA and Hash Plant all folded into one plant. It is a great deal of resin heritage under a single roof, and appropriately so for a strain assembled from quite so many secret identities, given the house's comic-book naming scheme. The result grows readily indoors or out and runs highly resinous. A busy pedigree, and a sticky one.
Nose & flavour
The record lists no specific flavour notes, so I will not invent them. What the lineage suggests, though, is a dark, resinous register, Skunk, Afghani and Hash Plant all pull in that pungent, earthy direction. Take the nose as you find it; the record stays quiet on the particulars, and I will not speak over it. The heritage hints, but does not spell it out.
The high
No effect notes are recorded either, so temperament must stand in. At 19% THC on a 75% indica frame, expect something on the heavier, settling end rather than the bright one, the deep indica and hash lineage pointing firmly downward. The figures and the parentage do the talking here; the record leaves the sensation to your own encounter, and I will not pretend to it for her.
Growing it
No flowering time or height is given, so I will not guess at either; what the record does supply is a yield of 500 g/m² and a plant that takes readily to indoor or outdoor growing. The five-way lineage, heavy with Skunk, Afghani and Hash Plant, makes for highly resinous buds, so clean your scissors like you were taught. A versatile, sticky plant suited to a wide range of growers. Adaptable, and generous with the resin if not with the paperwork.
