Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Big Bud and Skunk behind this one, and the skunk shows through: a floral, citrus nose over a sharp chemical edge that clings to the fingers. The high is happy and relaxed, easing toward sleep, from tall, resin-heavy colas that live up to the plain-spoken name.

Where it comes from

Green House Seeds crossed Big Bud with Skunk to make Super Bud, an 80 per cent indica-dominant hybrid that takes the best of two heavyweight parents. Big Bud brings the sheer mass of flower the name plainly advertises; Skunk brings the sharpness and the resin. The plainest names are often the most honest, and this one lives up to its billing without embellishment: tall, dense colas of resin-coated buds, sticky to the touch, that leave the fingers coated in a sharp Skunky residue.

Nose & flavour

The Skunk shows through, as Skunk always does. A floral, citrus brightness sits over a sharp chemical edge, and that chemical note is what clings to the fingers when you handle the flower. It is a resinous, pungent aroma with real reach, the floral top notes doing little to soften the funk beneath. The sort of nose that announces its parentage before anyone asks.

The high

A happy, relaxed effect that eases steadily toward sleep as the evening goes on. With over 17 per cent THC and a spread of secondary cannabinoids such as CBN and CBG, the character is more rounded than raw, settling the body while keeping the mood light on the way down. Good company for an evening you have no further plans for, rather than an afternoon that still needs you upright.

Growing it

The record is quiet on height, so temperament will have to stand in: expect the tall, dense colas the parentage promises, sticky enough to test any grower's patience with the scissors. Flowering is a brisk 56 days, and the yield is where the name earns itself, at a genuinely heavy 900 g/m² indoors. THC sits above 17 per cent at 17.33, with a whisper of CBD. A vigorous, resin-slicked plant that pays back the effort in weight, and asks mostly that you keep your blades clean as you go.
