MK LAV
Also known as: MK Lavender
MK LAV Strain Overview
MK LAV is a hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from the MK Ultra and Lavender strains. The strain was developed to create a balanced hybrid that offers both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation. Breeders sought to merge the potent indica effects of MK Ultra with the aromatic and mood-enhancing qualities of Lavender, resulting in a strain that has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense structure and a coating of trichomes that gives them a frosty appearance. The coloration ranges from deep green to purple hues, often with vibrant orange pistils. The buds are known for their sticky texture and strong aromatic profile that combines earthy, floral, and sweet notes with hints of spice.
MK LAV is recognized for its balanced effects that begin with a cerebral uplift before transitioning to physical relaxation. The strain has gained particular attention for its complex terpene profile and consistent performance across different growing environments. While not as widely available as some mainstream strains, it has developed a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its nuanced effects and flavor profile.

MK LAV Strain Growing Information
MK LAV is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready in late September to early October. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plants tend to be medium in height, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. They prefer a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors, with plenty of sunlight and moderate humidity. Indoor growers should maintain consistent temperatures between 68-78°F (20-26°C) and moderate humidity levels. The plants benefit from regular pruning to improve airflow and light penetration to lower branches. Special considerations include monitoring for mold in humid conditions and providing adequate support for the dense buds during late flowering.
