Big Bud is an old-school style indica-dominant feminised seed from Nirvana, created by crossing Afghani, Skunk and an Old School Big Bud line. Growers can look forward to a quick finish, typically within eight to nine weeks of flowering, and a sturdy plant that copes well with both hot and cold conditions and resists mould. Its compact yet bushy frame responds nicely to training methods such as topping, tying down and SCROG, making it a sensible pick for hands-on cultivators. Indoors the plants are productive and suit a sea of green set-up, while outdoors they can grow large and benefit from support once flowering begins. The flavour profile is earthy and sweet with a floral, vintage character, and the aroma is more floral than pungent during flowering. The breeder describes a calming, body-focused experience best enjoyed in the evening. Big Bud is an approachable choice for beginners and experienced growers alike who want a classic strain with a generous harvest.
