Seb's take

Seb Silverback

A cross of Sunset Sherbet and Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies that turns delicate purple and lavender in cold nights, as if dressing for the occasion. Sweet mint and citrus on the nose; the high settles into relaxed, euphoric calm rather than announcing itself. Resin-heavy enough that extraction artists keep her on speed dial.

Where it comes from

Royal Queen Seeds crossed Sunset Sherbet with Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies for Green Gelato — two of the most decorated dessert lines going, folded into one. The Sherbet side brings creamy fruit; the Thin Mint Cookies a cool, sweet edge and cookie backbone. At 55/45 it sits marginally indica. A gem, in the breeder's own estimation, and one bred to satisfy connoisseurs as readily as newcomers.

Nose & flavour

Sweet leads, with a cool mint note from the Thin Mint parent and a citrus lift alongside — an unusual, refreshing profile that stands apart from the usual fruit-and-fuel. The resin production is heavy enough that the aroma carries, and carries richly. Dessert with a menthol edge.

The high

It settles into relaxed, euphoric calm rather than announcing itself — a smooth, weighted high that takes its time. At 27% THC there is real force beneath the composure, so this is a sipping strain, not a session one. Comfortable and heavy in equal measure, best kept for when the day is done.

Growing it

Feminised, medium at 80 to 120cm, flowering 56 to 70 days. Yields are heavy — 500 to 700 g/m², easily exceeding a gramme per watt indoors, in the record's telling. The buds form tight, grape-like clusters top to bottom, and turn purple, lavender or dark blue when finished cool, as if dressing for the occasion. Resin-heavy enough that extraction artists keep her close.
