What is the Deep Space 98 strain?
Deep Space 98 is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and earthy and pine flavor profile.
Deep Space 98 is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by the breeder Subcool through his TGA Genetics seed company. The strain was created in the late 1990s, with the '98' in its name referring to the year of its initial development. It represents one of Subcool's earlier breeding projects that helped establish his reputation for creating unique, flavorful strains with complex genetic backgrounds.
The strain is characterized by its dense, resinous buds that typically display a forest green coloration with occasional purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The buds are often heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance that contributes to the strain's name. Deep Space 98 is known for producing a thick, expansive smoke that many users describe as having a 'spacey' or 'cosmic' quality to its effects.
While not as widely available as some mainstream commercial strains, Deep Space 98 maintains a cult following among cannabis enthusiasts who appreciate its unique genetic heritage and distinctive effects. The strain is particularly noted for its complex flavor profile and potent, long-lasting indica effects that make it suitable for evening or nighttime use.

How do you grow Deep Space 98?
Deep Space 98 is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest in late September to early October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also be grown outdoors in temperate climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to stay relatively compact for an indica, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels to prevent mold (due to dense bud structure) and providing adequate support for branches during late flowering when buds become heavy. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield.
