Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Auto AK crossed with White Dwarf, built around Ruderalis genetics that flower on schedule regardless of light or climate. A short, 60 to 70 day life cycle asks little of the grower, indoors or out, in cold weather or warm.

Where it comes from

Auto AK crossed with White Dwarf, two compact autoflowering lines that VIP Seeds have folded together for hardiness above all. The ruderalis in both parents is the working ingredient; it lets her flower on her own schedule, no change of light required, and stand up to weather that would see off a more delicate plant. A 70% indica by the record, built less for spectacle than for surviving a cold climate and cropping anyway.

Nose & flavour

No flavour notes are recorded, so none will be invented. An AK-derived autoflower tends toward the earthy and pungent rather than the sweet, but I will leave that as a hint rather than a claim and let your own nose have the final word. The record stays silent here, and so, honestly, shall I.

The high

Potency is given only as high, with no figure attached, so I will quote none. The 70% indica base points toward the relaxed and settled end of things; reason from that rather than from any number I might invent. An easy-going effect, most likely, in keeping with a plant bred for the quiet life rather than the loud one.

Growing it

This is her strong suit. An autoflower through and through, she needs no 12/12 switch to begin flowering, which takes a good deal of guesswork out of the grow, a fair choice for a beginner or a difficult site. Her life cycle runs a short 60 to 70 days, and she returns around 500 g/m² indoors. She will crop in cold conditions that stall other plants, and asks little in the way of intervention. Forgiving of enthusiasm, and quick to forgive a mistake or two besides.

An autoflower — she flowers on age rather than light hours, which simplifies the schedule considerably.
