Nebula
Also known as: Paradise Seeds Nebula
Nebula Strain Overview
Nebula is a sativa-dominant cannabis strain developed by Paradise Seeds in the Netherlands during the 1990s. The strain was created through selective breeding of genetics from Afghanistan and Brazil, resulting in a plant that combines the cerebral effects of sativas with some physical relaxation. Nebula gained recognition after winning multiple awards, including first place in the Sativa category at the 1997 High Times Cannabis Cup, cementing its reputation as a quality strain.
The strain is characterized by its dense, resinous buds that display a striking appearance with bright green coloration, orange pistils, and a generous coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a sparkling, nebula-like quality. The buds typically have a conical shape with a compact structure, and the plants produce a sweet, fruity aroma with floral undertones. Nebula is known for its relatively short flowering time compared to many pure sativas, making it more accessible to growers.
Nebula has maintained popularity due to its balanced effects and reliable performance. The strain is considered a classic example of Dutch breeding expertise, bridging the gap between traditional landrace sativas and modern hybrid varieties. While not as widely available as some contemporary commercial strains, Nebula remains respected among connoisseurs for its consistent quality and historical significance in cannabis breeding circles.

Nebula Strain Growing Information
Nebula is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, suitable for both novice and experienced growers. The plants have a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid-October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields typically range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though it thrives in Mediterranean climates with plenty of sunlight. Plants tend to grow to medium height (1-1.5 meters indoors, up to 2 meters outdoors) with a bushy structure that may require some training or pruning to optimize light penetration. Nebula is relatively resistant to common molds and pests, making it a reliable choice for various growing conditions. The plants respond well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods.
