How to grow Original Cheese
Seb's take
Once a UK-only cutting passed hand to hand like contraband, Original Cheese is now available honestly, from seed, with the same pungent, skunky, nutty nose intact. The high is relaxed, sleepy and happy with a giggly, euphoric lift and hunger to match. A 35/65 sativa-indica split that finally lets everyone in on the secret.
Growing Original Cheese: what to expect
Feminized, so you'll not be sexing plants or evicting males. Photoperiod, so veg lasts exactly as long as you decide — see the vegetative stage on how long that ought to be.
Expect around 8 weeks in flower — textbook timing. Textbooks, for once, being useful: here's ours.
Not a heavy producer, and untroubled by that fact. Grow her for what she is rather than for the scales — though good practice will still add a little.
THC tests around 19%, which is strong by any sensible chart. Respect it accordingly.
Sweetness leads on the nose, and she doesn't whisper it.
The dominant note in the reviews is uplifting; daytime company, by most accounts.
