Mountain Mist
Mountain Mist
Overview
Mountain Mist is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition for its exceptional cold resistance and hardy growing characteristics. The strain is a cross between a special Skunk variety and Himalayan Indica genetics, creating a robust plant well-suited for challenging mountain climates and cooler growing conditions. The name "Mountain Mist" likely references two defining traits: resilient growth in mountain conditions and a frosty, misted appearance from a heavy trichome blanket. Mountain Mist does not presently appear on major "all-time" or "top-100" compendiums and sometimes appears in limited drops or regional catalogs rather than as a mainstream staple, with details varying by breeder and batch. The strain has developed a loyal following in mountain towns and cool-climate grows due to its distinctive pine-forward terpene profile and reliable performance in harsh conditions.

Growing Information
Growing Mountain Mist marijuana is relatively straightforward, making it suitable for both novice and experienced cultivators. The plant exhibits strong growth with dense, resinous buds and adapts well to different environments with good resistance to pests and diseases. The flowering period spans 8-12 weeks, relatively standard for an indica-dominant hybrid, though some sources indicate faster finishing at 6 to 7 weeks. Plants grow vigorously to heights between 100-200 centimeters with one main cola and minimal side branching. The strain shows strong resistance to mould and diseases, being able to withstand high levels of condensation and low night time temperatures. Not really recommended for indoor growth, Mountain Mist seeds are well suited for growing in cooler northern climates or high altitudes and is one of the top recommendations for growing in cooler more challenging climates with a shorter season. Expected yield ranges from 1-3 ounces per square foot under optimal conditions.
