Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Girl Scout Cookies crossed with Santa Muerte, a name that oversells the danger of what is, per the breeder, a genuinely beginner-friendly plant. Fruity and floral with a citrus and hashish edge on the nose; the high moves from euphoria into happiness before settling relaxed. Thirty per cent-plus THC calls for respect regardless of the reassurance.

Where it comes from

Girl Scout Cookies crossed with Santa Muerte — a name borrowed from the folk saint of a good death, which rather oversells the danger of what Blimburn insist is a beginner-friendly plant. The Cookies side lends the polish; the whole keeps a bright top note over enough body to stay grounded. Ominous branding, genial company: the two do not always have to agree.

Nose & flavour

Fruity at the front, with citrus lifting it and a floral note behind — and, beneath all that, an old-school hashish undertone that keeps the smoke from ever feeling merely sweet. Lively and traditional at once. A perfume with one foot in the sweetshop and the other somewhere considerably older.

The high

Euphoria arrives first, then happiness settles over it, and a relaxed finish sees the whole thing home. Sociable and warm rather than heavy. That said, the record puts potency at 30 to 32%, so the breeder's reassurance notwithstanding, approach the dose as you would a staircase in the dark.

Growing it

Photoperiod, feminized, and frankly enormous — the record lists her at 300cm, so this is a plant for a greenhouse or the open sky rather than a modest tent. Flowering is a long affair at 70 to 84 days, rewarded with yields of 610 to 702 g/m². The potency is the headline at 30 to 32%, which makes the beginner-friendly billing a pleasant surprise; keep the dosage respectful and she lives up to it. Give her the headroom, and a great deal of it.
