What is the Double Rainbow strain?
Double Rainbow is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and citrus flavor profile.
Double Rainbow is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing two notable parent strains: Rainbow Chip and Rainbow Belts. This strain emerged from the breeding efforts of the Archive Seed Bank, a respected breeder known for developing unique and potent cultivars. The name references both its genetic lineage and the colorful spectrum of effects and flavors it provides, reminiscent of a double rainbow phenomenon.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a striking visual appearance. Flowers often display a vibrant mix of deep purple and forest green hues, accented by bright orange pistils and a thick coating of frosty trichomes. The buds are usually medium to large in size with a tight, indica-dominant structure. Double Rainbow has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its well-rounded effects and complex terpene profile.
Notable features include its relatively fast flowering time and adaptability to various growing environments. While not considered a beginner-friendly strain due to some cultivation challenges, experienced growers appreciate its rewarding yields and robust genetic expression. The strain has become particularly popular in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, where it has developed a dedicated following among connoisseurs.

How do you grow Double Rainbow?
Double Rainbow is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere.
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 Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity when grown outdoors. Indoor cultivation is recommended for most growers to better control environmental factors.
Plants typically reach a medium height of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues.

Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers reporting sensitivity to overfeeding, particularly during the flowering phase.
