True to its name, this strain represents outstanding medicinal properties for cannabis enthusiasts. The breeders of KADAMA have made a step forward by giving this indica-dominant hybrid a high CBD content of 5-8%. The amount of THC is minimal, fluctuating in the range of 3-4%. As a result, the consumption of this strain is limited to a balanced therapeutic effect, avoiding intense psychoactive influences.
Genetics and Characteristics
Our breeders have carefully crossed an impressive, high-yielding Critical Mass with a CBD-Rich – a proprietary, high-CBD strain. The resulting hybrid develops into a lush, bushy plant with a height of up to 150 cm (59 inches) indoors and up to 2 m (6.5 ft) outdoors. With proper training and maintenance of the recommended growing conditions, this strain will yield 500-600 g/m² (18-21 oz) indoors and 700-1000 g (25-35 oz) per plant outdoors. The dark olive-colored flowers are characterized by numerous resinous trichomes, which will be highly appreciated by producers of CBD oils and concentrates. Indoors, the strain matures remarkably quickly, typically in just 8 weeks from the start of flowering. When grown outdoors, harvest time approaches late September to late October.
Flavor and Aroma
The earthy and fruity aroma glides smoothly across the palate, complemented by classic "medicinal" notes of pine and citrus. Fire up the buds and the smoke reveals its incredibly velvety texture with a delicate lemony and spicy flavor, inviting you to hold your breath and savor the wonderful sensation unfolding inside you.
Recreational and Medicinal Use
With its minimal THC content, recreational use of CBD Critical Mass will not cause a significant alteration in consciousness. However, the list of conditions this strain effectively combats is impressive. It is traditionally used to treat insomnia, appetite disorders, depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, fatigue, apathy and chronic stress. The pronounced anticonvulsant and antispasmodic properties allow CBD Critical Mass to be used in cases of severe muscle spasms and as an adjunctive therapy for epilepsy to reduce the duration and intensity of seizures.
Combined with its potent therapeutic properties, we have a truly outstanding strain that deserves the attention of both growers and fans of balanced cannabinoid content that creates a healing "entourage effect".
Cultivation
Traditionally, LST, topping or ScrOG are used to control vigorous stretching, which not only allows the plants to fit into the available space, but also provides uniform light exposure to the entire canopy, thus increasing yields. Regardless of the indoor growing method, CBD Critical Mass should be provided with powerful full-spectrum LED lighting and adequate air circulation, achieved through the use of oscillating fans in conjunction with a good ventilation system.
Outdoors, CBD Critical Mass thrives in warm, temperate climates and well-drained, nutrient-rich substrates amended with mycorrhizae. If you are new to growing, limit the use of mineral fertilizers and opt for organic cultivation instead. This approach will not only improve the quality of the final product, but will also spare novice growers the need for pre-harvest flushing, a requirement for advanced growers using mineral fertilizers.
