Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Stella Blue and Nepali Kush combine into a straightforward indica, fast to flower and forgiving of enthusiasm at the controls. At 22% THC there's real substance behind the simplicity, name notwithstanding — no actual peppermint required to enjoy it. A sound choice for those still finding their feet.

Growing Peppermint Kush: what to expect

Feminized photoperiod seed: every plant a female, and flowering starts when you change the lights — which puts the calendar in your hands. The photoperiod lesson covers using that control well.

She finishes flowering in around 8 weeks — brisk work by any standard. Read up on the flowering stage before she starts, because she won't wait while you do.

She stays under the metre mark — tent-friendly, discreet, and unbothered by low ceilings. Run the numbers on the light planner and she'll fit wherever you put her.

A solid, dependable yield — 550 g/m² under decent conditions. Nothing that requires bragging; everything that justifies the effort. The yield lesson covers getting to "decent conditions".

Breeder figures put THC around 22% — firmly in the strong band. The number speaks for itself; we'll not add adjectives to it.
