High Karate
High Karate Strain Overview
High Karate is a relatively rare cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The strain was developed by breeders seeking to create a balanced hybrid with potent effects and distinctive flavor characteristics. While its exact genetic origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis literature, it has gained a cult following among enthusiasts who appreciate its unique combination of cerebral and physical effects. The strain's name references its reported ability to deliver a powerful, focused effect that some users describe as 'martial arts-like' in its precision and intensity.
High Karate plants typically display a mix of indica and sativa characteristics, with medium-height plants that develop dense, resinous buds. The flowers often exhibit a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The buds are usually covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The strain's aroma is complex, combining earthy, pine, and citrus notes with subtle undertones of diesel fuel, creating a distinctive sensory profile that experienced users can often recognize.
Notably, High Karate is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. It has remained somewhat obscure in mainstream cannabis markets, primarily circulating within specific regional communities and among connoisseurs who seek out unique genetic expressions. The strain's rarity means that comprehensive laboratory data and large-scale grower reports are limited compared to more commercially popular varieties, though anecdotal reports from users consistently emphasize its balanced effects and complex flavor profile.

High Karate Strain Growing Information
High Karate is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, best suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment or a Mediterranean-like outdoor climate with consistent temperatures. Plants typically reach a medium height of 120-160 cm indoors and can grow taller outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels to prevent mold (particularly during flowering) and providing adequate support for branches during late flowering as buds become dense. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield and light penetration.
