Power Plant strain info:

Released by the Dutch Passion Seed Company in 1997, it has won a multitude of awards, especially in 2016. These include first prize for Sativa and third prize for Hash at the Lift Expo in Vancouver, Canada. It was also awarded second place for Sativa at the Prairie Medicinal Harvest Cup, and not to mention second place overall at the HighLife Cannabis Cup.

This 65% Sativa / 35% Indica hybrid is the supreme happy-go-lucky strain. It is perfect for a casual get-together with friends or a social situation where you have to be less inhibited and more communicative. Its THC level that can go up to 20% produces a mental buzz with an added energy supply. However, note it could bring on hallucinations, especially in higher doses. This is definitely not a strain for beginners.

Although its scent and flavor are not as striking as other variants, it is not displeasing, either. It emits a neutral aroma that brings to mind Mother Nature with her earthy and wood-like fragrance blended with mildly spicy notes.

Power Plant can be grown at home using feminized, regular, or autoflowering seeds. The photoperiod versions are best for intermediate growers with more knowledge about cannabis cultivation, while the auto is a beginner-friendly plant that does not demand too much attention. Either way, you are sure to reap an exceptionally large harvest with this high-yielding strain.

Power Plant’s smell and tasteare usually described as neutral by marijuana aficionados. However, this does not detract from the pleasant smoking experience. In fact, it exudes an aroma that is satisfyingly earthy and woody andsprinkled withherbal essence.

A single puff is enough for your taste buds to enjoy its bouquet of earthy flavors. There is a sharp, peppery spice that cuts through the smoothness and lingers on the palate, along with the nuance of fresh herbs.

As the name suggests, Power Plant delivers a potent high that can through the roof. With that said, this weed is not for neophytes or smokers who have a low tolerance. The first hit shifts your mood to a brighter one immediately and clears the mind of negative thoughts. At the same time, it will fill your spirit with excitement and energy.

If you plan to be productive the entire day, this strain might not be the best for you. Although it can boost your energy briefly, a calming physical buzz balances the mind’s desire to conquer the world. What it does well is encourage you to be a more sociable chatterbox. It could even serve as an icebreaker that can turn the most timid person in the room into a full-blown party animal. You have to be cautious, though, because you might end up spilling your deepest, darkest secrets to the wrong people.

As the buzz fades, your energy level will drop, allowing you to sit back and rest. You can have a snack or go to sleep, depending on how you feel. A warning, though: this strain might cause hallucinations with a higher dosage.

Power Plant combines 20% THC and 2% CBD, making it a highly effective therapeutic marijuana. Its potency is known to alleviate psychological concerns like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic disorder (PTSD). It induces euphoric feelings that can ward off negative thoughts, worries, and overthinking, replacing them with a happy and optimistic disposition.

Furthermore, it has anti-inflammatory properties that work with the cannabinoids’ ability to reduce pain. This brings relief to patients dealing with acute and chronic discomfort from multiple sclerosis (MS), arthritis, migraine, back pain, and PMS. It gives them an organic alternative to synthetic painkillers that often cause drug dependency and other unpleasant side effects.

Just like most Sativa-dominant strains, consumption usually leads to a craving for snacks. The attack of the munchies is highly advantageous for MMJ patients feeling the debilitating effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. It provides individuals a way to fulfill their nutritional needs and may even create a healthy perception of eating for anorexics and bulimics.

Despite all these positive consequences, Power Plant is not free of potential adverse reactions. Any cannabis strain can cause bloodshot eyes and a parched mouth. However, these effects can be mitigated by drinking lots of fluid and using OTC eye drops. As mentioned earlier, this strain is not for newbies who may end up with dizziness, mild paranoia, and anxiety.

Power Plant Grow Info

Growing Power Plant can be a delightful adventure because it is an exceedingly heavy-yielding strain. Nevertheless, it originated from South African Sativa, which means it can grow tall and demand lots of space to stretch its branches. If you choose indoor cultivation, keep in mind that you are growing a potential giant, and you will need to provide ample vertical area.

As it matures, it will exhibit emerald-green foliage with compact colas forming throughout. The buds will be covered with a hefty layer of trichomes that turn pearly white as harvest time nears. The pistils are lavishly spread out, alters into a more vivid amber shade as the ganja comes of age.

Power Plant is best cultivated using the Screen of Green (SCROG) method that can limit its height to 90 to 150 cm (3 to 5 feet). This technique trains the plant to grow laterally instead of reaching for the ceiling. Putting a screen or mesh above the plant and carefully entwining the branches through it will also encourage more bud sites to develop.

Occasional pruning is required to improve overall the quality and quantity of the buds. If you need to disguise or hide the scent, you can consider installing an air filtration system. For a small batch for personal consumption, charcoal filters will do a more-than-adequate job (unlike commercial growers who use large air purifiers).

Other elements to consider when growing indoors are the temperature and relative humidity (RH). They should be adjusted depending on the growth stage of your plant.

Seedling stage: 24 to 28 degrees Celsius (75 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit), 70% RH
Vegetation period: 21 to 28 degrees Celsius (70 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit), 40% to 60% RH
Flowering period: 18 to 27 degrees Celsius (65 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit), 40% to 50% RH

All these essentials will certainly make your Mary Jane happy enough to produce a generous yield of 500 to 600 grams (17 to 21 ounces) per square meter after 8 weeks of flowering.

Outdoor cultivation promises an even bigger return. This weed thrives best in an area with Mediterranean-like weather – warm and sunny. By the second week of October, you can expect to harvest 600 to 1000 grams (21 to 35 ounces) of beautiful nugs per Power Plant.

Using regular seeds gives you an equal chance of sprouting male and female plants. This should not be an issue if you want to have males for breeding projects. It goes without saying that they should be placed in another room to avoid accidental pollination. However, if you would rather have 100% smokable buds, you should choose feminized seeds instead.

Power Plant has an autoflowering version that makes it so much easier to grow this strain, especially for newbies. This variant has been infused with Ruderalis genes to make it shorter and more compact. In addition, it is more resilient against pathogens and extreme weather conditions. Regardless of where you decide to grow this marijuana, indoors or outdoors, it is sure to flourish.

Besides growing to a height of 50 to 100 cm (2 to 3 feet) only, another advantage is it does not have to wait for a change in the light cycle to enter the flowering stage. Simply give the seedling 20 hours of light a day, wait 9 weeks, and it will produce flowers automatically. To maximize the yield, employ the Sea of Green (SOG) method. It will allow you to collect 400 to 500 grams (14 to 18 ounces) of bud per square meter.

Outdoor growers are particularly fond of autoflowering seeds because of the potential for two or more harvests in a season. Due to this strain’s brief life span, you can plant the first batch in early April and the last in June. This lets you collect 400 to 600 grams (14 to 21 ounces) per plant in June and October.

Other elements to consider when growing indoors are the temperature and relative humidity (RH). They should be adjusted depending on the growth stage of your plant.

Seedling stage: 24 to 28 degrees Celsius (75 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit), 70% RH
Vegetation period: 21 to 28 degrees Celsius (70 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit), 40% to 60% RH
Flowering period: 18 to 27 degrees Celsius (65 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit), 40% to 50% RH

All these essentials will certainly make your Mary Jane happy enough to produce a generous yield of 500 to 600 grams (17 to 21 ounces) per square meter after 8 weeks of flowering.
