Jaguar Negro
Also known as: Black Jaguar
Jaguar Negro Strain Overview
Jaguar Negro is a relatively rare hybrid cannabis strain that has gained attention among connoisseurs for its distinctive appearance and balanced effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with most sources suggesting it was developed by boutique breeders in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States during the early 2010s. The name 'Jaguar Negro' (Spanish for 'Black Jaguar') references the strain's striking visual characteristics, particularly the dark purple and black hues that develop in the mature flowers.
The strain is characterized by dense, resinous buds that exhibit a remarkable color transformation during flowering. Initially displaying typical green coloration, the flowers gradually develop deep purple and nearly black pigmentation, especially in cooler growing conditions. This dramatic color change is attributed to anthocyanin production, similar to other 'black' cannabis varieties. The buds are typically covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance that contrasts with the dark foliage.
Jaguar Negro is noted for its complex aromatic profile and balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. While not as widely available as mainstream commercial strains, it has developed a dedicated following among growers and consumers who appreciate its unique characteristics. The strain's rarity means that consistent information can be difficult to verify, and individual phenotypes may vary significantly depending on growing conditions and breeding lines.

Jaguar Negro Strain Growing Information
Jaguar Negro is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, best suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-700 grams per plant in suitable climates.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean or similar climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include temperature manipulation during the flowering phase to enhance the characteristic dark coloration - exposing plants to cooler nighttime temperatures (around 10-15°C) during the final 2-3 weeks can intensify the purple and black pigmentation. The plants have moderate resistance to common molds and pests but require good air circulation due to their dense bud structure.
