Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Black Beauty smells of a fresh herb garden – floral and peppery over an earthy base, better suited to a vaporiser than a match. With THC held to a whisper and CBD doing the heavy lifting, the effect is calm and medicinal rather than any kind of occasion. A strain that knows precisely what job it's for.

Where it comes from

A dedicated CBD line, and the parentage says as much — Pure CBD 4 crossed with itself, a stabilised cross bred to hold the cannabinoid steady rather than to chase anything heady. Kera Seeds tilt her slightly sativa, sixty per cent, and hold the THC to a whisper while the CBD climbs into double figures. This is a plant with a single, clearly defined job, and a pedigree built around doing it consistently.

Nose & flavour

The record's own image is a walk through a fresh herb garden, and it is apt — floral and peppery up top, over a strong, earthy base. It carries better through a vaporiser than a flame, which suits the clean, herbal character. A savoury, garden-fresh nose with none of the sweetness modern strains chase, and the more distinctive for it.

The high

With THC held to a tenth or two of a per cent, there is no intoxication here to speak of — the CBD, at ten to fourteen per cent, does all the work. The result is calm and settling rather than any kind of occasion, a quiet, clear-headed ease that leaves you entirely yourself. A strain that knows precisely what it is for, and does not pretend otherwise.

Growing it

Give her the headroom — she reaches three metres given the room, which makes this one for a tall space or the open air. Flowering settles at around sixty days for a solid 500 g/m². The sixty per cent sativa lean brings some stretch and vigour, so train and support her early if the ceiling is low. A generous, straightforward grow, provided you can house the height she wants.
