Growing Information
Black Chery Russian is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, best suited for indoor growing environments. The flowering time is approximately 8 weeks (56 days), with plants developing a compact, heavily-branched conic structure typical of indica genetics. Under optimal conditions, growers can expect yields exceeding 800 grams per square meter. The strain requires good lighting, stable temperature control, and well-draining soil for maximum growth and yield potential. Watering should be consistent, particularly during the first four weeks of growth, with twice-daily watering recommended to keep soil properly nourished. The strain benefits from fertilizer applications to enhance growth and maximize the potent effects. Plants exhibit exceptional resistance to pests and mold due to their robust trichome formation and dense bud structure. Available only as regular (non-feminized) seeds.
