Strawberry Kush CBD is a relatively small plant that produces a medium-sized yield within a short flowering period. Like any other photoperiod variety, you will start to see buds when the daylight hours get shorter or when you switch your grow light schedule to 12 hours on/12 hours off. Thanks to its Strawberry Cough genes, it is impervious to mold, mildew, fungus, bacteria, and viruses. These characteristics make it an easy-to-grow strain and a great choice for novice growers.
Indoors, you will not need too much space. Because it is Indica-dominant, the plant will be short and bushy. To maximize your yield, you can arrange many plants close together. Each one will have a heavy top cola without too much bottom branching. The resulting “sea of green” traps most of the light at the top level of the plants. Doing so will allow you to shorten the vegetative stage and induce flowering within 8 weeks. Come harvest time, you can expect a reasonably generous yield of 16 to 23 ounces per 3 square feet (450 to 650 g per square meter).
If you live in a warm, sunny climate, you can choose to grow outdoors. Take note that the plant will be taller – up to 60 inches (150 cm). Regular topping is needed to control upward sprouting and to ensure the highest possible yield of 16 oz (450 g) per plant. Nevertheless, its resistance to virtually every kind of pest is a bonus.
Because this is a high-CBD strain, you should maintain the temperature between 68 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit (20 to 21 degrees Celsius). Your soil should remain warm down to at least 2 inches (5 cm). Furthermore, do not overwater as this could potentially lower the CBD content. If you follow these simple reminders, you will be able to harvest plenty of potent buds with a pink to reddish hue. They will be coated with resinous white trichomes, so take extra care when you clean your tools and wear gloves while tending to your plants.
Incidentally, these seeds are feminized. This means that the male chromosomes have been eliminated to produce only female plants. As this 2017 report explains, productivity is greater with just females. Because there are no males around to pollinate them, you can expect only smokable buds, not more seeds. Moreover, the genetics of feminized seeds are precisely controlled to bring out the strain’s defining features. In the case of Strawberry Kush CBD, these features include easy maintenance and fast flowering.
