Mossy's Jem
Also known as: Mossy Jem
Mossy's Jem Strain Overview
Mossy's Jem is a relatively rare cannabis strain that emerged from the Pacific Northwest cannabis scene in the early 2010s. The strain was reportedly developed by a breeder known as "Mossy" who sought to create a balanced hybrid with exceptional bag appeal and complex terpene profiles. While exact documentation of its development is limited, the strain gained recognition through word-of-mouth among connoisseurs and small-scale growers in Oregon and Washington.
The strain is characterized by its visually striking appearance, featuring dense, conical buds with a distinctive mossy green coloration accented by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a frosted, crystalline appearance. The buds typically have a tight, compact structure with a moderate to high calyx-to-leaf ratio, making them relatively easy to trim. The strain's name references both its creator and the jewel-like quality of its resinous flowers.
Mossy's Jem is noted for its complex aromatic profile that evolves throughout the cultivation and curing process. The strain has gained a reputation among experienced growers and consumers for its balanced effects and nuanced flavor experience, though it remains relatively obscure in mainstream cannabis markets. Due to its limited commercial availability, most encounters with Mossy's Jem occur through small-batch producers or home cultivation.

Mossy's Jem Strain Growing Information
Mossy's Jem is considered a moderate-difficulty 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 moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment or Mediterranean-like outdoor climates with consistent temperatures. Plants exhibit hybrid growth patterns, reaching medium height (3-5 feet indoors, 5-7 feet outdoors) with strong lateral branching that benefits from training techniques like topping or low-stress training. Mossy's Jem requires good air circulation to prevent mold in its dense buds and responds well to organic nutrient regimens. The strain is known for its resilience to common pests but can be sensitive to overwatering and nutrient burn.
