Nebula

The name of this strain, Nebula, refers to a cluster of stars that either radiates or absorbs light against the general background of the sky. In this particular case, the comparison is more than apt. This hybrid stands out from the crowd with its bright, shiny appearance, highlighted by fluffy flowers and sparkling silvery trichomes against a backdrop of dark green foliage.

Genetics and Characteristics

Bred in 1996, Nebula is a feminized photoperiod sativa-dominant (60/40) hybrid that combines the genetics of the authentic Afghan landrace, White Widow (Cinderella 99 x Grapefruit), and the classic California Haze.

The plant has a hybrid structure, sprawling branches and wide internodes, producing pyramid-shaped, dense and highly resinous buds that sparkle with fragrant trichomes like stars in the night sky. Flowering takes 9-10 weeks, with an indoor yield of around 500 g/m² (18 oz). Outdoors, harvest arrives in mid-October, delighting the meticulous grower with 750 g (26 oz) of buds per single plant. The strain's broad cannabinoid profile is dominated by THC (18-22%) and CBD (1%).

Flavor and Aroma

During the flowering stage, your grow tent will be filled with a distinctive Haze aroma with a subtle spicy note. When consumed, freshly ground buds produce a dense, smooth and slightly pungent smoke with notes of tropical fruits, pine, honey, citrus and subtle floral undertones. The overall composition is complemented by hints of spiciness and earthiness.

Recreational and Medicinal Use

Nebula delivers positive emotions and a burst of energy, the willingness to conquer the world or just to relax and appreciate the beauty of the present moment. A perfect morning and daytime strain, it will become an indispensable source of inspiration for artists who want to immerse themselves in an atmosphere of creativity and music, or simply spend a good time with friends or like-minded souls.

Nebula's broad terpene profile, paired with moderately low levels of CBD, contributes to the relief of pain and inflammation, muscle spasms and migraines, alleviation of fatigue and loss of motivation, as well as creative blocks.

Cultivation

Growers value this hybrid for its relative ease of cultivation, adaptability, robust immunity and generous yields. Nebula is also an excellent choice for beginners, provided they are armed with a solid theoretical background. The best environment for Nebula is the controlled conditions of a large grow tent. When choosing pots, opt for fabric grow bags or plastic airpots with a capacity of at least 20 liters (5.3 gallons). During flowering the strain tends to stretch, so use training techniques that create a squat profile (LST, tying, SoG/ScrOG).
