Huckleberry
Huckleberry
Also known as: Ackleberry, Huckleberry Kush
Overview
Huckleberry is a well-balanced hybrid with a mysterious backstory. The origins and genetics of Huckleberry are under debate, but there is no disputing the strain's unmistakable berry aroma. While multiple versions exist from different breeders, the most documented lineage comes from Dynasty Seeds' Huckleberry Kush, which crosses Oregon Afghani (a clone that's been around since the early 80s) with Oregon Huckleberry. The Oregon Huckleberry Male is a product of an ongoing 4 year inbreeding project involving the Oregon Blueberry clone from the 80s, crossed with Barney's 2002 HTCC winner Morning Glory.
Physically, buds of Huckleberry are small to medium in size and spherical in shape, clinging together in popcorn-like clusters with thick and tightly-packed bud structure often associated with indica-dominant varieties. Leaves are a mossy shade of green and are threaded through with orange to red pistils. Phenotypes of the strain frequently display patches of purple in their leaves, in almost equal proportion to green; these surprising shades are the result of pigments called anthocyanins in the plant's genetics. Finally, translucent white trichomes coat the inner and outer surfaces of these flowers, giving them a silvery sheen. The strain is prized for its jammy fruit aromatics, balanced effects, and vivid coloration with a terpene profile that leans heavily into sweet berry, grape, and subtle forest-pine notes.

Growing Information
Huckleberry plants have a flowering time of 8-9 weeks and produce average yields. They might be a bit tricky for the novice grower. Those who have decided to attempt growing Huckleberry seeds say it's a somewhat finicky strain. It needs a temperate climate with slow yet steady watering to flourish. Some reports suggest Huckleberry may also be vulnerable to pests. Therefore, it tends to do best when you grow it indoors. Under ideal circumstances, Huckleberry grows up to 8 feet tall. It's a fast-flowering plant that can be ready to harvest in just nine weeks. Huckleberry from Elemental Seeds grows well indoors or outdoors, and tends to thrive when given a proper nutritional diet. Growers should expect extra large yields of fat and sticky flowers in a nine-to-10-week flowering cycle. Easy to grow, plants can handle fair amount of stress without harm. Dense buds, harvest on time or beware of mold!
