High Contact
High Contact Strain Overview
High Contact is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain developed through selective breeding techniques. While its exact origins are not widely documented in cannabis literature, it appears to have emerged from the West Coast cannabis breeding scene in the early 2010s. The strain gained recognition through word-of-mouth in cannabis communities rather than through major seed bank promotions, contributing to its somewhat elusive breeding history.
The strain is characterized by dense, conical buds with a frosty trichome coating that gives them a silver-green appearance. The flowers typically display vibrant orange pistils that contrast against the pale green foliage. High Contact's buds are known for their resinous texture and sticky feel when handled, indicating high cannabinoid production. The plant structure tends to be moderately bushy with good lateral branching, making it suitable for various training techniques.
Notable features include its complex aromatic profile that evolves during the curing process. Freshly harvested buds often carry sharp, fuel-like notes that mellow into more nuanced earthy and citrus undertones after proper curing. The strain has gained a reputation among connoisseurs for its balanced effects and versatile applications, though it remains less commercially widespread than many mainstream hybrids.

High Contact Strain Growing Information
High Contact is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though indoor cultivation allows better control over its moderate height (typically reaching 3-4 feet indoors, 4-6 feet outdoors).
Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 14-18 ounces per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 16-22 ounces per plant. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold in dense buds and implementing low-stress training techniques to maximize light penetration and yield. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some sensitivity to nitrogen during flowering.
