How to grow Critical Cheese
Taste
Seb's take
Critical + crossed with Cheese, and the marriage holds — sweet perfume up front, unmistakable Cheese funk close behind, with earthy citrus and diesel notes threading through. The high is energetic, focused and creative rather than sedating, euphoric without the crash. Ventilate well; those dense, crystal-heavy buds do not forgive damp.
Where it comes from
Dinafem crossed Critical + with Cheese, and the marriage holds — the Critical side lending its heavy bud production, the Cheese side its unmistakable funk. She grows vigorously with a wide, indica-dominant structure and pine-like branches, and can stretch to twice her size during pre-flowering. A pairing of two proven names, and neither is drowned out by the other.
Nose & flavour
Sweet perfume up front, with the unmistakable Cheese funk close behind it, and earthy citrus and diesel notes threading through the middle. A loud, layered nose — the sort that fills the room the moment you disturb it. She does not travel discreetly, so a carbon filter earns its keep.
The high
Energetic, focused and creative rather than sedating — euphoric without the crash at the end of it. A bright, working sort of high that keeps you upright and useful rather than pinning you down. Good daytime company, and rare among the Cheese crosses for staying so.
Growing it
She flowers in 55 to 60 days and grows tall — up to around 250cm, and stretching to twice her size before flower, so give her the headroom. The yield is a heavy 600 g/m². A word of care, though: those extremely big, dense, crystal-heavy buds do not forgive damp, so ventilate well and watch cold or humid spaces. Vigorous and generous, but she asks for airflow in return.
