How to grow Big Bang
Taste
Seb's take
Skunk, Northern Light, and El Niño combine into a small, dense plant that spreads wide rather than tall as flowering begins. Sweet, spiced, and cinnamon-edged on the nose, the high runs relaxed, medicinal, and happy — a modest name for something with genuine therapeutic reach.
Where it comes from
Three classics folded together: Skunk, Northern Light, and El Niño, arranged by Green House Seeds into a small, dense plant that spreads outward as flowering begins. The name promises fireworks and the make-up half-delivers — a seventy per cent indica at just under twenty per cent THC, with the barest trace of CBD. What emerges by harvest is a wide, dense Christmas tree of a plant, more heavyweight than pyrotechnic.
Nose & flavour
A warmer nose than most — sweetness up front, then a distinct spiced edge, with cinnamon threading through the middle. It reads almost like baking, the sort of profile that suits a cold evening. The Skunk in the family keeps a low, savoury hum underneath so it never turns cloying.
The high
The effect is calm, relaxed, and happy — a settling, good-natured ease rather than anything that shakes the room, whatever the name implies. It leans toward the evening, unwinding body and mind without demanding you commit to sleep. The GHS breeding shows in how smoothly it arrives: no jolt, just a steady, agreeable descent into the armchair.
Growing it
The headline is the harvest: up to 800 g/m² indoors, which is heavyweight by any measure. No height figure is recorded, though the record describes a small, compact plant that grows wider than tall through flowering, ending as a dense Christmas tree almost entirely bud. Flowering runs fifty-six to sixty-three days. Keep airflow moving around that density and she rewards the discipline generously.
