GoldMember Strain Overview
GoldMember is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by the breeder Subcool through his company TGA Genetics. The strain was created by crossing the popular indica-dominant hybrid Jack the Ripper with the sativa-dominant hybrid Space Queen. This genetic combination results in a balanced hybrid that exhibits characteristics from both parent strains, though it tends to express more sativa-like effects despite its hybrid classification. The name is a reference to the character from the Austin Powers film series, reflecting the strain's golden trichome coverage and premium quality.
GoldMember plants are known for their distinctive appearance, featuring dense, resinous buds that are often covered in a thick layer of golden-orange pistils and amber trichomes. The buds typically display a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues that can emerge under cooler growing conditions. The strain produces a complex aromatic profile that combines citrus, pine, and earthy notes with subtle undertones of tropical fruit and spice. GoldMember has gained recognition among cannabis enthusiasts for its potent effects and unique flavor combination.
While not as widely available as some mainstream commercial strains, GoldMember has maintained a dedicated following since its introduction in the mid-2000s. The strain is particularly noted for its cerebral effects that gradually transition into physical relaxation, making it suitable for various times of day. Growers appreciate GoldMember for its relatively manageable cultivation requirements and generous resin production, which makes it a good candidate for extraction purposes. The strain's balanced effects and complex flavor profile have contributed to its reputation as a quality connoisseur strain.

GoldMember Strain Growing Information
GoldMember is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid-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. GoldMember prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with plenty of sunlight and moderate humidity. The plants tend to grow to a medium height of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure and providing support for branches during late flowering as buds become heavy with resin. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods.
