Overview
Bud Spencer is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by Organic Seeds, named as a tribute to the iconic Italian actor Bud Spencer to mirror the strain's impressive stature in the cannabis community. This strain exhibits approximately a 50/50 split between indica and sativa genetics, making it suitable for growers and users who desire a balanced experience. The strain was created by crossing a selected excellent Chronic with their own offspring Chronic #1. It was specifically developed to capture the robust characteristics and versatility of both indica and sativa genetics, offering an experience that appeals to a wide range of cannabis enthusiasts. Described by Organic Seeds as their most commercial strain, Bud Spencer is characterized as a medium-high plant that offers the perfect combination of very good yield, excellent quality and short flowering time. The strain produces countless thick, compact, completely resin-coated flowers with a sweet fragrance. Morphologically, the strain displays both the thick, resinous clusters typical of indica plants and the more elongated, sugar-like trichomes associated with sativa varieties, with plants showing an average height of 80-120 cm indoors.

Growing Information
Bud Spencer can be cultivated indoors, outdoors and greenhouse with a flowering time of approximately 55 days (55-65 days range). This medium-high, not too dense plant adapts very well to temperate climates and also shows good results indoors. The strain forms a main stem with a central flower and robust side branches, with support recommended for the plant due to its massive weight. Pruning the plant is not recommended. Detailed field studies indicate that Bud Spencer can achieve a height of up to 150 cm in outdoor settings, with an overall flowering period of 8-10 weeks under optimal sunlight exposure. Experienced cultivators report that the elasticity and robustness of the branches allow for effective low-stress training (LST) techniques, making it more adaptable in indoor growing environments. Its amazing yields make this strain one of the most sought after on the market. The strain is considered beginner-friendly due to its robust genetics and forgiving nature.
