How to grow Sweet Dreams
Taste
Seb's take
An imported Californian Big Bud Skunk mother crossed with the breeder's own KC 606 — parentage plain enough that little embellishment is required. Skunky, earthy, and woody on the nose, the high runs relaxed and sleepy, with the hunger and dry mouth that tend to follow a strain of this description.
Where it comes from
K.C. Brains kept the account plain: Sweet Dreams has an imported Californian Big Bud Skunk for a mother, crossed over with the breeder's own KC 606. The parentage is stated plainly enough that little embellishment is required, the Big Bud Skunk lending the mass and the funk and the KC 606 the house character. A straightforward cross from a breeder known for its own numbered lines, and honest about exactly where it came from.
Nose & flavour
Skunk leads the nose, over an earthy, woody base, with flowery and pungent notes rounding it out. The Big Bud Skunk mother shows plainly in the funk, the woody depth giving it weight and the floral a softer edge over the top. It is a loud, grounded aroma rather than a bright one, the sort that carries and does not hide its skunky heritage. A characterful, recognisable scent.
The high
The high runs relaxed and sleepy, a settling, heavy-lidded effect that eases the body toward the end of the day. The record lists the hunger and the dry mouth and eyes that tend to follow a strain of this description, so keep water and a snack within reach. Companionable, unhurried company for an easy evening, the sort of high that quietens the day and leaves you disinclined to be needed elsewhere.
Growing it
A medium plant reaching around 100cm, and a fast one, with a flowering window running anywhere from 42 to 63 days. The yield is a modest 130 g/m², so this is a plant grown for its character and its speed rather than sheer weight, and THC sits at 18 per cent with a high CBD note. A quick, manageable plant of honest parentage, it suits a grower after a fast turn and a settling, old-school character rather than a record-breaking harvest.
