Double Heather
What is the Double Heather strain?
Double Heather is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and earthy and floral flavor profile.
Double Heather is a relatively rare cannabis hybrid strain that appears to have emerged from boutique breeding circles in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States during the early 2010s. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure in the public record, with limited documentation from major seed banks or breeders. It is generally described as a balanced hybrid, though some phenotype expressions may lean slightly toward indica or sativa dominance depending on cultivation conditions and genetic expression.
The strain is characterized by dense, resinous buds that often display a striking visual appearance. The flowers typically exhibit deep forest green coloration with occasional purple hues that emerge in cooler temperatures, complemented by a thick coating of milky-white trichomes and vibrant orange pistils. The buds are usually compact and tightly structured, reflecting careful breeding for bag appeal and resin production.
Double Heather is noted for its complex aromatic profile that combines earthy, floral, and slightly sweet notes. The name 'Heather' likely references the floral, herbal quality of its aroma, while 'Double' may indicate either a doubling of certain desirable traits or a specific breeding technique. The strain remains somewhat elusive in mainstream cannabis markets, primarily circulating among connoisseurs and specialty dispensaries in legal states.

Double Heather is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though indoor growing allows better control over environmental factors that influence its color expression. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 3-5 feet tall, making them suitable for limited-space grows. Double Heather prefers stable temperatures (68-80°F) and moderate humidity levels, with particular attention needed during flowering to prevent mold in dense bud structures. Some phenotypes may benefit from low-stress training techniques to maximize light penetration and air circulation.
