Seb's take

Seb Silverback

A Brazilian sativa crossed with the breeder's own Stitch 0.1, lush and highly branched, with buds kept loose enough to shrug off damp growing sites. The record is silent on nose and precise effect, though it is described, engagingly, as motivating. Suited to wetter climates where denser buds would only invite mould.

Where it comes from

A Brazilian sativa crossed with the breeder's own Stitch 0.1, and one they clearly hold in some affection, the plant inspired the name for their SuperAuto hybrid version, in their own words. Eighty-five percent sativa, lush and highly branched. A personal project, in other words, rather than a catalogue filler, and built with a particular climate and a particular grower's fondness in mind.

Nose & flavour

The record does not list the aroma or flavour, and I will not manufacture one. What it offers instead is a plant described, engagingly, as very motivating, with buds kept deliberately loose. Take the tropical, Brazilian sativa parentage as a gesture toward the bright end, but the specifics go honestly unrecorded.

The high

Unrecorded in the detail, so I will leave it there rather than guess. The record's one word for the character is motivating, which is more disposition than tasting note, and the 85% sativa lean supports an upward, active reading. Beyond that the source keeps its counsel, and so shall I.

Growing it

An autoflowering feminized plant at 17% THC, with a listed 0.2% CBD. Flowering is long for an auto at 95 to 110 days, so patience is the price of a plant this size. Height is considerable, 120 to 250cm, so give her the headroom despite the autoflower badge. The buds are not overly compact, which, as the breeder notes, makes her ideal for wet sites where denser flowers would only invite mould. Yields run a wide 100 to 500g per plant. A lush, branchy plant built for damp climates and long summers.
