Moby Grape Bx1
Also known as: Moby Grape Backcross 1
Moby Grape Bx1 Strain Overview
Moby Grape Bx1 is a stabilized backcross of the original Moby Grape strain, developed to enhance and preserve its distinctive characteristics. The strain traces its lineage to a cross between Grape Ape and an unknown sativa-dominant strain, with the Bx1 designation indicating it has been backcrossed to one of its parent strains (typically Grape Ape) to reinforce specific traits. This breeding approach has resulted in a more consistent expression of the grape and berry flavors that made the original Moby Grape popular among cannabis enthusiasts.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with deep purple hues that develop under cooler temperatures, often displaying vibrant orange pistils. The coloration is particularly pronounced in the leaves and calyxes, creating a visually striking appearance. The buds are usually covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance that hints at their potency. Moby Grape Bx1 is known for its sweet, grape-like aroma with earthy undertones, which becomes more pronounced when the buds are broken apart or ground.
Notable features include its balanced effects that combine physical relaxation with cerebral stimulation, making it suitable for various times of day. The backcrossing process has helped stabilize the strain's growth patterns and cannabinoid profile, though some phenotypic variation may still occur. While not as widely available as some commercial strains, Moby Grape Bx1 has maintained a dedicated following among growers and consumers who appreciate its unique flavor profile and reliable effects.

Moby Grape Bx1 Strain Growing Information
Moby Grape Bx1 is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready in late September to early October. Plants tend to remain medium in height, reaching 3-5 feet indoors and 4-7 feet outdoors when given adequate space. Yields are generally moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 1.5-2 ounces per square foot under optimal conditions.
The strain responds well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though indoor growing allows better control over the temperature conditions that enhance its purple coloration. Cooler nighttime temperatures (around 60-65°F) during the flowering stage can intensify the purple pigmentation. Moby Grape Bx1 prefers a stable environment with good air circulation to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to humidity-related issues. Regular pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training can help maximize yields and light penetration. The plants typically have a bushy structure with strong lateral branching that benefits from support during the later flowering stages.
