Strawberry Kush is a smaller plant with medium yields. Although it can grow equally well both indoors and outdoors, its compact size makes it a favorite for indoor growers. It has a high resistance to diseases, thanks to its Strawberry Cough genes that are impervious to mold, mildew, fungus, bacteria, and viruses. It flowers rather quickly in as little as eight to nine weeks. All these characteristics make Strawberry Kush a great option for novices.
If you buy our Strawberry Kush seeds, you will have minimal difficulties because they are feminized. This means that the male chromosomes have been eliminated to produce only female plants. They produce considerably higher amounts of THC compared to male and hermaphroditic plants. Furthermore, the genetics of feminized seeds are carefully controlled to bring out the strain’s defining features. In the case of Strawberry Kush, these features include easy maintenance and fast flowering.
If you choose to grow this strain indoors, then we suggest 400 watts of fluorescent light during the vegetative stage, and 400 to 600 watts of LED light for flowering. The plant prefers somewhat dry conditions with low humidity and cooler temperatures. As mentioned before, it is a wonderful space saver. Therefore, using the Sea of Green method will let you start with four seedlings per square foot, and then later transition to one vegging plant per square foot. This allows Strawberry Kush to have a heavy top cola, but there will not be much bottom branching. This “green canopy” will trap most of the light at the top level of the plants. Come harvest time, you can expect a reasonably generous yield of 16 to 23 ounces per 3 square feet.
Growing this strain outdoors will produce significantly taller plants, hence the need to pay closer attention during the growing process. Regular topping is needed to prevent upwards sprouting and to ensure the highest possible yield. Nevertheless, its resistance to virtually every kind of pest is a bonus if you do not have a grow room and are forced to cultivate it outside. In mid-October when the plant receives less light, you will be blessed with pink to reddish buds that are coated with frosty white trichomes. There will be a lot of resin, so take extra care when you clean your tools and wear gloves while tending to your plants.
