Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Genetics tracing back to 1994 and a trophy case to match, condensed here into a 65% Indica autoflower that Herbies Seeds USA rate as good as the original. The high leans relaxing with a mellow mental lift; sweet, herbal and piney on the nose. Euphoric and giggly, at 21% THC.

Where it comes from

Herbies Seeds USA condensed a genuine heritage into automatic form, crossing White Widow with Critical+ Auto. The record dates her genetics back to 1994 and credits her parent line with many Cannabis Cups and other awards, making White Widow one of the most celebrated strains ever set to seed. This version, on the record's account, is every bit as good as the original — a decorated pedigree kept intact and made to flower on its own clock.

Nose & flavour

Woody and earthy at the core, with a flowery lift, a peppery edge and a thread of pine — the record adds a sweet, herbal, sometimes piney character over the top. It is a rounded, classic profile rather than a single loud note, the sweetness keeping the pepper and the wood in balance. Grounded and aromatic, in keeping with the heritage behind her.

The high

A strong effect with a relaxing Indica turn, complemented by a mellow mental stimulation — she settles the body while keeping the head gently engaged rather than switching it off. Euphoric and giggly at the lighter end, uplifted and talkative through the middle. A well-judged balance of ease and lift, befitting a strain with this much reputation behind it.

Growing it

A patient automatic: the record gives 75 to 80 days in flower, so she rewards a grower who does not rush. She spans a broad 50 to 110cm and returns a solid 458–549 g/m², at 21% THC. The wide height range means a little training pays off. Between the celebrated genetics and the respectable yield, she offers the classic in a self-timing package — good weight and good character, provided you grant her the weeks.
