Seb's take

Seb Silverback

DJ Short's Blueberry crossed with a Jew Gold cut, marrying that celebrated flavour with serious potency and yield. Buds run dark green, dense and frosty, suited to concentrates as much as flower. Left untrained she grows big and tall, so top or SCROG her, and give her the headroom.

Where it comes from

DNA Genetics paired the legendary DJ Short's Blueberry with a Jew Gold cut for this sativa-dominant hybrid, fifty-five per cent to the sativa side. The Blueberry parent brings the celebrated flavour DJ Short spent a career chasing; the Jew Gold cut brings the potency and the weight. A marriage of taste and yield, and a well-matched one at that.

Nose & flavour

The DJ Short Blueberry line is the draw here, that incredible, much-imitated taste running through the cross. Buds come dark green, dense and frosty, so thoroughly covered in resin and trichomes that they make as good a source for concentrates as for flower.

The high

High potency is what the Jew Gold parent was brought in for, and the frosty, resin-laden flower makes the case plainly enough. The lean is sativa-dominant, so expect the brighter, more cerebral side of the family, carried on that unmistakable Blueberry sweetness.

Growing it

Fast-finishing, in around nine weeks or by the start of October outdoors, though some phenotypes take a week longer to mature, more so in colder, harsher conditions. Yields run 500 to 600 g/m². Left untrained she grows big and tall, so top her, FIM her, or run a SCROG to keep her in bounds, and give her the headroom either way. A plant that wants managing tells you enough about its ambitions.
