Cali Big Bud
The Cali Big Bud is an indica-dominant strain that boasts of having a powerful high and many other benefits the user could enjoy. The common distributor of the strain is Sensi Seeds in the U.S. According to the distributor, the Bid Bud strain was developed around the 80s by crossing multiple strains to get the one impressive big bud that we all enjoy today. It is believed that the strain’s parents are Afghani, Haze, and the Northern Lights. Since its inception, the strain easily appealed to many weed users and this spreading fast in the black market. Even during the time when there was war on drugs in the U.S., the users had it grown and genetically stabilized in the Netherlands.
Over time, the strain has survived and claimed more popularity than before. It has won the 1st Prize when it comes to “Most Indica” strain category. There is no doubt it will win more awards thanks to its THC levels of up to 20%. The percentage could vary with the tests, but you will most around 20. For most people, they find this strain having aesthetically pleasing look as compared to many other types of marijuana strains.
People are also like it for the chunky buds and large pieces of flowers. This means you will always get a high yield with the strain. That is not all, you still get a bold smell from the strain. You will smell a dank and earthy scent all combined with a bit of fruitiness. Since the parents are from Haze and Skunk families, you should easily see why these two flavors combine. Well, as for the smoke, the big bud gives you a smooth smoke all the time that is finished with a sweet aftertaste.
As explained earlier, the strain is quite potent. It comes as indica dominant so expect to get a very thick body stone in the end. It can creep up to the smoker in a few minutes, but once it is in the body you will definitely know that you are high. This is not the kind of strain you use if you need mental stimulation as its effects are totally different. Most users have explained that it gives you the sense of relaxation added to a bit of foggy feeling. There is no doubt that you will end up having the coughlock syndrome where you just sit there feeling high. For such effects, it might not be the best strain for daytime. Use it when you are going to sleep or relax in the evening.
The plant height can reach up to 7 feet. This often makes the strain grown outdoors. For those who have enough room, you can always grow it indoors. For outdoors, make sure you have a warm climate with consistent sunlight exposure to the plant. It might take an average of 8 weeks for the strain to flower. This should be a short time as compared to other strains that take longer.
