What is the Dark Web strain?
Dark Web is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and diesel and earthy flavor profile.
Dark Web is a relatively rare indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s. Its exact origins are somewhat obscure, with limited documentation available from breeders, which contributes to its mysterious namesake. The strain is characterized by its dark, almost black coloration in mature buds, which is enhanced by deep purple hues and vibrant orange pistils. This striking appearance results from high anthocyanin production, typically triggered by cooler temperatures during the flowering phase.
The strain's buds are typically dense and resinous, covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give them a frosty appearance. Dark Web is known for its complex aroma profile that combines earthy, diesel-like notes with subtle sweet undertones. The name 'Dark Web' appears to reference both the strain's dark physical appearance and its somewhat elusive breeding history, though it has no actual connection to the online network of the same name.
While not as widely cultivated or documented as mainstream commercial strains, Dark Web has developed a niche following among connoisseurs who appreciate its unique appearance and potent effects. The strain's rarity means that consistent information about its exact genetic lineage and breeding history is limited, and variations may exist between different growers' versions of the strain.

How do you grow Dark Web?
Dark Web is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, best suited for experienced growers. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are typically ready for harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Dark Web prefers a controlled indoor environment where temperature can be manipulated to enhance its characteristic dark coloration, though it can also be grown outdoors in temperate climates.
