Chemdog #4 — Herbies Seeds

Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Nepalese and Thai landrace stock behind this member of the Chemdog line, balanced enough to deliver on both medical and recreational fronts. A quick grower that responds well to training, though it takes a steady hand to get the best from her — no strain for the distracted.

Growing Chemdog #4: 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.

She wants to be a tree — 200 cm and climbing if you let her. Give her the headroom or teach her manners early: training techniques are not optional here.

A solid, dependable yield — 488 – 610 g/m² under decent conditions. Nothing that requires bragging; everything that justifies the effort. The yield lesson covers getting to "decent conditions".

THC of 27% by the breeder's numbers — the top shelf of the scale. Approach as you would a staircase in the dark.
