Neurotoxin
Also known as: Neurotoxin OG
Neurotoxin Strain Overview
Neurotoxin is a potent hybrid cannabis strain that has gained attention for its powerful effects and complex genetic background. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with limited documentation available from breeders, but it is generally believed to have emerged from the West Coast cannabis scene in the early 2010s. Its name references the intense cerebral experience it reportedly delivers, though this is a marketing term rather than a scientific description of its properties.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a striking appearance. Flowers are often dark green with purple and blue hues, complemented by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of trichomes that gives them a frosty, crystalline appearance. The buds are usually compact and tightly packed, characteristic of its indica-dominant heritage. The visual appeal is enhanced by the contrast between the dark foliage and the glittering resin glands.
Neurotoxin is noted for its complex aromatic profile that combines fuel-like, earthy, and sweet notes. The name suggests a potentially overwhelming experience, and users consistently report this as a strain for experienced consumers due to its high THC content. While information about its exact genetic lineage varies between sources, it is generally accepted to be a carefully selected phenotype from established genetics rather than a widely distributed commercial strain.

Neurotoxin Strain Growing Information
Neurotoxin is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, best suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October. Indoor yields are moderate to high, approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in warm, Mediterranean-like climates with consistent sunlight. Plants tend to be medium in height, usually staying between 100-150 cm indoors but potentially reaching 180-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels to prevent mold (due to dense bud structure) and providing adequate support for branches during late flowering when buds become heavy. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield and light penetration.
