Ginsu Strain Overview
Ginsu is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Seattle Chronic Seeds, created from crossing Kitchen Sink and CBG genetics. This balanced hybrid leans neither full indica nor full sativa, often described as the 'Swiss Army knife' of high THC cannabis strains due to its flexible, robust, and reliable nature. The breeding goal was to stack high THC content with layered pine-citrus-diesel flavors while preserving robust plant structure and above-average trichome production. The strain inherits its complex characteristics from two distinct parent lines: Kitchen Sink, which is a 50/50 hybrid cross between GMO Cookies (Chem D x Girl Scout Cookies) and Sundae Driver, and CBG genetics, which provide cannabigerol (the 'mother cannabinoid' essential for cannabinoid and terpene production). The CBG influence provides a genetic edge against mold and stress, while Kitchen Sink contributes its multi-faceted terpene profile, making Ginsu suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation environments.

Ginsu Strain Growing Information
Ginsu has a flowering time of 56-70 days (8-10 weeks) and can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors. The strain ranks as moderate in growing difficulty and requires ample airflow and humidity control for optimal results. Phenotypes vary considerably - some plants produce dense, frosty buds with neon lime brushstrokes, while others emphasize earthy-diesel aromas or citrus characteristics. Harvest brings moderate yields of resin-rich flowers with bag appeal ranging from classic pine green to almost icy with trichomes. Faster flowering phenotypes tend to be more CBG or Type 2 dominant with heavy coloration on mother-leaning plants, and the strain washes well for extraction purposes. Regular seeds are available in 12-seed packs, requiring growers to sex their plants during cultivation.
