Mendocino Maraschino BX
Also known as: Maraschino BX, Mendo Maraschino
Mendocino Maraschino BX Strain Overview
Mendocino Maraschino BX is a stabilized backcross of the original Mendocino Maraschino strain, developed to enhance and preserve its distinctive characteristics. The strain originates from California's famed Emerald Triangle region, specifically Mendocino County, where it was bred by local cultivators seeking to create a flavorful, potent hybrid with balanced effects. The 'BX' designation indicates it is a backcross, meaning it was bred with one of its parent strains to reinforce specific traits while maintaining genetic stability.
The strain features dense, resinous buds with a complex visual appearance. Flowers typically display deep purple and forest green hues, often accented by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of milky-white trichomes. The name 'Maraschino' references the strain's distinctive cherry-like aroma and flavor profile, though it also incorporates other complex notes. The plant structure tends to be moderately bushy with good lateral branching, making it suitable for various cultivation techniques including SCROG (Screen of Green) and LST (Low Stress Training).
Mendocino Maraschino BX has gained recognition among connoisseurs for its unique terpene profile and reliable effects. While not as widely available as some commercial strains, it maintains a dedicated following in Northern California and among growers who appreciate its regional heritage. The backcrossing process has resulted in more consistent expression of its key characteristics compared to the original Mendocino Maraschino, though phenotypic variation can still occur depending on growing conditions and phenotype selection.

Mendocino Maraschino BX Strain Growing Information
Mendocino Maraschino BX is considered a moderate difficulty strain suitable for intermediate growers. Flowering time typically ranges from 8-10 weeks indoors. Outdoor plants in suitable climates are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October. The strain performs well both indoors and outdoors, though it thrives in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. Plants typically reach medium height (4-6 feet outdoors, 3-4 feet indoors) and benefit from regular pruning to improve airflow and light penetration. This strain is somewhat resistant to common molds and pests but requires careful humidity control during late flowering to prevent bud rot. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some phenotypes showing sensitivity to nitrogen excess during flowering.
