Cthulhu
Cthulhu
Also known as: Cthulhu #43, Cthulhu #56, Sour Garlic Pheno, Sour Grape Pheno
Overview
Cthulhu is a hybrid cannabis strain created as a cross between Sour Blueberry and Marie Laveau by Prime Wellness of Pennsylvania, where it represents one of their exclusive "Bred in PA" strains that are the result of seven years of selective breeding. Named after the tentacled creature from H.P. Lovecraft's science fiction, this strain exhibits an intense structural appearance with deep dark flavors of berries, garlic, and wood. The breeding goal was to create a strain featuring the medicinal effects and vigor of Sour Blueberry while adding the desirable looks, consistency, and indica effects from the proven Marie Laveau male parent.
The strain is known for its complex flavor profile that combines sweet blueberry, sour diesel, and garlicky herbs, with a berry-garlic diesel fuel funk that is hard to put into words. Prime Wellness has developed two primary phenotypes - Cthulhu #43 (Sour Garlic pheno) and Cthulhu #56 (Sour Grape pheno). The #43 phenotype features dense green buds with speckles of purple and a fragrance combining qualities of both parent strains, while the #56 Sour Grape pheno displays very strong trichome coverage with clear, sweet hints of citrus and pale notes of fermented grapes.

Growing Information
Cthulhu can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouse environments with a flowering time of approximately 60 days. Growers can expect early frost formation on fan leaves with dense trichome coverage at bud sites, along with a hungry vegetative phase and significant stretch during flowering. Cultivation techniques such as topping and low-stress training methods including super-cropping and trellising are recommended. Plants grow as strong, bushy specimens that respond well to topping. The strain requires attention during the vegetative phase due to its vigorous growth patterns.
