How to grow Shogun
Seb's take
Amnesia Haze and Gorilla Glue #4 make an unlikely pairing for Shogun, two names that could hardly be less alike, yet the result is a sativa powerhouse with distinctly old-school, earthy, piney aromas. The high runs relaxed and euphoric with real medicinal value, bountiful in yield for the effort put in.
Growing Shogun: 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 10 weeks — no surprises, which in this business is a compliment. The flowering stage guide covers what each of those weeks should look like.
A middling 140 cm or so at maturity — tall enough to yield, short enough to manage. Standard tent territory; the light planner sorts the hanging height.
A solid, dependable yield — 550 – 600 g/m² under decent conditions. Nothing that requires bragging; everything that justifies the effort. The yield lesson covers getting to "decent conditions".
THC of 25% by the breeder's numbers — the top shelf of the scale. Approach as you would a staircase in the dark.
Earthy on the nose — the old-school profile, done properly.
Reported effects lean relaxed — the sitting-down sort.
