How to grow Blackwater
Seb's take
This Blackwater, a 90:10 indica cross of Mendo Purps and SFV OG Kush, grows stocky and dark purple beneath a dense frost of resin. Lemon, grape, and berry carry the nose, and the high leans calming and euphoric rather than sedative outright. An easy choice for indoor or outdoor growers alike.
Growing Blackwater: what to expect
Feminized photoperiod seed: every plant a female, and flowering starts when you change the lights — which puts the calendar in your hands. The photoperiod lesson covers using that control well.
Flowering runs the standard 9 weeks — no surprises, which in this business is a compliment. The flowering stage guide covers what each of those weeks should look like.
A middling 120 cm or so at maturity — tall enough to yield, short enough to manage. Standard tent territory; the light planner sorts the hanging height.
The yield is, in plain terms, heavy — 700 g/m² when she's looked after. Branches will need support before they need sympathy; see supporting heavy colas.
THC of 28% by the breeder's numbers — the top shelf of the scale. Approach as you would a staircase in the dark.
Fruity across the nose — orchard rather than sweetshop.
Reported effects lean relaxed — the sitting-down sort.
