What is the Big Buddha Cheese strain?
Big Buddha Cheese is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its hungry effects and cheese and earthy flavor profile.
Big Buddha Cheese is an offspring of the original Cheese strain from Great Britain. Around 2004, a breeder known as "Big Buddha" took the famous UK Cheese clone and crossed it with a carefully selected Afghani indica to create a seed version. This strain won the High Times 2006 Cannabis Cup in the indica category and went on to become probably the most popular and widely available Cheese hybrid produced in seed form. Big Buddha Cheese is an indica-dominant hybrid with around 60-80% indica and 20-40% sativa genetics.
The strain is characterized by dense buds with forest green leaves peppered with orange and pink hairs. It is known for its sweet, tropical fruit meets skunky-cheese smell and distinctive cheese-like aroma enriched by earthy and pungent tastes. The original Cheese strain gained notoriety for producing impressively large buds with a very distinctive cheesy odour and was quickly cloned and distributed throughout the UK underground. Big Buddha Cheese is exceptionally easy to grow, naturally resistant to pests and environmental fluctuations due to its Afghani genetics, making it suitable for both novice and experienced growers.
