Growing Tips for Our Seeds

Green Crack grows best in Mediterranean-like climates. Whether you choose to grow indoors or outdoors, as long as the climate is easy to manage, you should have no trouble bringing this plant to harvest. One note is that growing outdoors allows this plant to flower and spread out more than an indoor grow with limited space. This plant flourishes when allowed to grow as if it were in the wild. Most experienced growers advise that the humidity levels in your grow remain low as this strain is known for having issues with mildew. Pay attention closely to your watering schedule as overwatering this strain can be detrimental to the growth process. Watering when the top inch of soil is dry is a good rule of thumb to keep you in the game with this plant.

Dial in Your Growing Conditions

• Indoor or Outdoor: Green Crack plants are used to warmer, medium humidity environments. The strain originated in Georgia, so trying to replicate that kind of southern climate is your best bet. The ideal growing conditions are sunny and moderately dry. The ideal temperature for these plants is between 70-90 degrees fahrenheit as they thrive in warmer climates. With a wide temperature range and being impervious to higher heat, this strain is easy to manage.
• Moisture control: The Green Crack strain, during vegetative growth, prefers a humidity level of around 50%. As the plants move into the flowering stage, the humidity level should be lowered to around 30% to prevent mold and mildew. Proper airflow and watering will ensure these plants survive through the flowering stage.
• Training Techniques: Green Crack does really well with a 12/12 light cycle and benefits greatly from Low Stress training. Simply put, you are going to want to gently bend the stems of your plants to encourage light exposure and increase bud production. The tall and lanky plant structure will also benefit from topping.

Yields, Flowering Time and Harvest

• Flowering Time: With an indoor grow you can expect the Green Crack strain to harvest after its flowering stage of 55-65 days. When grown outdoors, you should be harvest-ready sometime between the end of September and the early part of October. Both are relatively short grow cycles due in part to the warmer climate these plants require to grow big and strong.
• Yields: Indoor yields are around 500 grams per square meter, while outdoor grows typically produce over 550 grams per plant. With the shorter grow time and ease of growth, these yield numbers are pretty great considering how powerful a strain Green Crack is.

Dominant Terpenes in Green Crack: Snoop Dogg Approved

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – Warm and peppery, adding depth to the flavor and aroma profile of Green Crack.

Dominant Cannabinoids in Green Crack:

Cannabinoids, although in the background, play an important role in Green crack and are generally a huge part in the makeup of cannabis. That happy and uplifting feeling you get when using Green Crack is due to its dominant cannabinoids. Each cannabinoid does something a little different.

• THC: The Main Character – THC is the most dominant cannabinoid on the molecular level of this strain. The crystalline compound tetrahydrocannabinol is the main ingredient of cannabis. Topping out at a higher than average 21%, the THC in the Sativa-dominant strain is responsible for how powerful this bud truly is.
• CBD: Minimal Amounts – While the CBD levels in Green Crack are pretty low CBD still plays a role in what the strain does to the user, more on a physical level than a mental level. CBD is non-psychoactive but can produce effects that help with aches and pains and general muscle soreness.
