Broly
Also known as: Broly OG
Broly Strain Overview
Broly is a hybrid cannabis strain named after the powerful antagonist from the Dragon Ball Z anime series, reflecting its potent effects. The strain's exact genetic origins are somewhat debated among cannabis enthusiasts, but most sources indicate it likely descends from a cross between OG Kush and another indica-dominant strain, possibly Bubba Kush or a similar variety. This lineage gives Broly characteristics of both its parent strains while developing its own distinct profile.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a classic indica structure, featuring dark green leaves often accented by purple hues and covered in a thick layer of frosty trichomes. The buds are usually compact and heavy, with orange pistils weaving through the dense floral clusters. Broly's appearance is often described as visually striking, with the purple coloration becoming more pronounced when grown in cooler temperatures during the flowering phase.
Broly has gained popularity among experienced cannabis users seeking strong, long-lasting effects. While not as widely available as some mainstream strains, it has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities. The strain's name references the character's legendary power in the anime, suggesting the breeders intended to create a particularly potent variety. As with many cannabis strains named after pop culture references, the exact breeding history can be difficult to verify definitively.

Broly Strain Growing Information
Broly is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready around mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are generally moderate to high, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also be grown outdoors in warm, Mediterranean-like climates. Plants tend to stay relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Broly benefits from techniques like low-stress training (LST) to maximize light exposure to lower branches. The plants are moderately resistant to common pests and molds but require good air circulation, particularly during the flowering stage when buds become dense and resinous. Temperature fluctuations during late flowering can enhance the purple coloration in the buds.
