M.O.A.B.
Also known as: Mother of All Berries, MOAB
M.O.A.B. Strain Overview
M.O.A.B., an acronym for Mother of All Berries, is a potent indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its powerful effects and distinctive berry flavor profile. The strain was developed through selective breeding to combine the best characteristics of its parent strains, resulting in a cultivar that appeals to both recreational and medicinal users. While its exact origin remains somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding circles, M.O.A.B. has established itself as a notable strain within the cannabis community, particularly among those seeking strong relaxation effects.
The physical characteristics of M.O.A.B. plants typically include dense, resinous buds with a deep green coloration often accented by purple hues, especially when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The flowers are usually covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance that hints at their potency. The strain's aroma is one of its most distinguishing features, combining sweet berry notes with earthy undertones and sometimes a hint of diesel or spice.
M.O.A.B. is known for producing substantial yields when grown under optimal conditions, making it appealing to cultivators despite its relatively long flowering period. The strain's genetics contribute to its resilience against common molds and pests, though proper ventilation and humidity control remain important considerations for successful cultivation. As with many modern hybrid strains, the exact phenotypic expression can vary between different growers and seed batches, leading to some variation in the final product's characteristics.

M.O.A.B. Strain Growing Information
M.O.A.B. is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean climates with consistent temperatures.
Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under ideal conditions. Plants tend to grow to a medium height, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation with proper training techniques. M.O.A.B. responds well to topping and low-stress training (LST) to increase yields and manage height. The plants require good air circulation and humidity control, especially during the flowering stage, to prevent mold development in the dense buds. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers reporting sensitivity to overfeeding, particularly with nitrogen.
