Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Delhi Friend and Ganj of New York, deceptively fragrant for something that hits this hard — fuel with a subtle fruit undertone on the nose belies the strength behind it. Built for knocking out pain rather than easing into an evening. Grows tall and responds well to training, so allow her the headroom.

Where it comes from

Dr Krippling built this on Delhi Friend and Ganj of New York, a feminized hybrid running sixty per cent sativa that packs a serious punch in the THC department. The name plays at monumental in the catalogue's usual style, and the plant lives up to the scale rather than the joke. The two parents lend fuel and fruit respectively, and the potency is the headline. A hybrid with real strength behind an unassuming front.

Nose & flavour

Fuel overtones with subtle fruit undertones, by the record's account, a deceptively pleasant nose given what sits behind it. The fuel leads, sharp and industrial, while the fruit softens it just enough to disarm you. It is this unsuspecting aroma the record warns about, an inviting front on a plant that means business. Bright and fuelled, with more restraint on the nose than in the effect.

The high

The high the record promises is devastating in the plain sense, the strength arriving well beyond what the gentle nose would suggest. This is a potent, heavy-hitting hybrid, one to approach with the caution the fragrance does not advertise. A staircase-in-the-dark sort of effect, best met with respect already in place. The fruit on the nose is a poor guide to the force behind it.

Growing it

She grows tall, to around 160cm, so allow a shorter-than-normal vegetative period and plenty of room to stretch. She responds well to nearly anything, topping, FIM, Screen of Green, Sea of Green, or being left entirely alone to grow naturally, which gives the grower real latitude. Flowering runs 49 to 63 days, with a wide yield of 250 to 850 g/m² and THC noted at 19.5%. A versatile, trainable plant with a tall habit that wants managing. Give her the headroom and the choice of method is yours.
