How to grow Ed Rosenthal Super Bud regular
Taste
Seb's take
Named for Ed Rosenthal himself, and built from genetics spanning Africa, South East Asia, Central America, and the Caribbean — a fitting tribute from a well-travelled man. Earthy pine and citrus on the nose, sweet and woody beneath; the high is uplifted, talkative, and energetic, with focus thrown in. A tidy sixty-five days from start to finish.
Where it comes from
Named in honour of Ed Rosenthal — the cannabis writer and cultivator — and built from genetics spanning Africa, South East Asia, Central America and the Caribbean. A well-travelled pedigree for a well-travelled man, and a fitting tribute. The record lists that global heritage rather than a tidy two-parent cross, which is rather the point: a densely potent plant with roots on four continents, gathered under one name.
Nose & flavour
Earthy and piney at the core, with citrus brightening the top and a woody, sweet depth beneath. A layered, worldly nose that reflects the spread of its heritage — green and resinous, with enough sweetness to round the edges.
The high
Uplifted, talkative and energetic, with a thread of focus running through it — awake and sociable rather than settling. Happy throughout. A daytime experience that keeps the mind engaged and the conversation moving, well suited to company.
Growing it
A tidy sixty-five days from start to finish, flowering around 55 to 65 days into a beautifully formed, picture-perfect plant. Indoors she rewards a steady light flow and a 12/12 flip in flower with large, resinous buds popping from the sides — and, the record notes, a surprisingly large and easy yield for a plant of this pedigree. Outdoors she will want some support. No height or yield figures are given, so I will leave those unstated. Straightforward for the quality she delivers — a rare thing in a plant this globally bred.
