How to grow Mimosa Shot
Taste
Seb's take
Purple Punch and Clementine again, this time built for strength rather than subtlety — sweet, spiced citrus on the nose, and a THC count that means business. Sativa-led, the high runs euphoric and creative, with just enough smooth physical release to round it off. A strain for those who read 'shot' as a warning label.
Where it comes from
Herbies went back to Purple Punch and Clementine for this one, two flavourful citrus champions, but built the result for strength rather than subtlety. The family tree began with that union and the breeding pushed it toward power, running seventy per cent sativa. The word shot in the name is doing honest work; it reads more as a warning label than a garnish. A feminized THC powerhouse with a genuine pedigree behind the potency.
Nose & flavour
Sweet and spiced citrus, the Purple Punch and Clementine heritage plain on the nose but with a peppery edge the parents alone would not give you. It is fruit with a bit of heat behind it, sweet up front and warm underneath. The citrus stays bright while the spice keeps it from turning simple. A nose that flatters before the effect arrives to correct the impression.
The high
The high is sativa-led, euphoric and creative, hitting between the eyes with the potency the name promises. There is smooth physical release moderating it, just enough to round the edges and make it a day-and-night option rather than one or the other. But make no mistake about the strength: this is a strain for those who read shot as the caution it is. Approach as you would a staircase in the dark.
Growing it
She runs tall, to around 200cm, so give her the headroom she means to claim, and she takes 56 to 70 days in flower depending on the phenotype. Yields reach 700 g/m², heavy, with THC noted at 24 to 30% and CBD around two per cent. A plant of real stature and real strength, she suits a grower with the vertical space and the tolerance to match. Give her room to stretch and she rewards it handsomely at harvest.
