How to grow Purple Moby Dick
Seb's take
Jack Herer and PAK genetics come together in a plant that hits considerably harder than the whimsical name suggests. Pinecone and sweet fruit on the nose, with outstanding yields for the effort - though the effort is real, this one is not forgiving of enthusiasm, and novices should look elsewhere.
Growing Purple Moby Dick: 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.
Flowering runs the standard 9 weeks — no surprises, which in this business is a compliment. The flowering stage guide covers what each of those weeks should look like.
She wants to be a tree — 350 cm and climbing if you let her. Give her the headroom or teach her manners early: training techniques are not optional here.
The yield is, in plain terms, heavy — 650 g/m² when she's looked after. Branches will need support before they need sympathy; see supporting heavy colas.
Breeder figures put THC around 21% — firmly in the strong band. The number speaks for itself; we'll not add adjectives to it.
