Crater Lake V4
Crater Lake V4
Also known as: Crater Lake Version 4
Overview
Crater Lake V4 is a sophisticated hybrid cannabis strain developed by Dynasty Seeds that represents a prime example of modern cannabis innovation and scientific integrity in breeding programs. This indica/sativa hybrid has a flowering time of approximately 60 days and was created through crossing Super Silver Haze F2 with Oregon Huckleberry (v2011) x (Blueberry x Oregon Huckleberry v2007). The strain was developed through an aspiration to blend the best qualities from both indica and sativa lineages, resulting in a versatile hybrid that caters to connoisseurs and patients alike.
The genetic architecture of Crater Lake V4 showcases approximately 52% indica properties and 48% sativa lineage, delivering a balanced experience suitable for both recreational and medicinal endeavors. Growers report that under optimal conditions, buds can exhibit trichome coverage exceeding 70%, giving them a frosty appearance with thick branches that support heavy colas. The crater lake phenos all smoke great across the board, with the biggest difference between them being plant structure and stretch, and phenotypes #1 and #2 have been identified as keepers, while #3 lacked the ideal structure.

Growing Information
Crater Lake V4 can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 60 days. It grows well indoors or out, flowering in 56 to 63 days indoors or late-September to early October outdoors in the Northern Hemisphere. The difficulty to grow Crater Lake is known for being average, with growers expecting average height and moderate yield in about 8-10 weeks indoors. According to the breeder, Crater Lake has four phenotypes that vary in yield and trichome production, with most sources pointing to at least average yields. Harvest time is best determined by observing trichomes, which should be predominantly milky white with hints of amber, with 70-75% milky stage trichomes indicating peak potency. Post-harvest curing requires controlled conditions with proper airflow and humidity around 60-62%.
