What is the Permanent Marker strain?
Permanent Marker is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 35.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and candy and citrus flavor profile.
Permanent Marker is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that first appeared in 2021 and has achieved remarkable recognition, winning both High Times Strain of the Year in 2022 and Leafly's Strain of the Year in 2023. This strain was bred by the renowned Seed Junky Genetics and brought to prominence by Doja Exclusives/Doja Pak. It is a three-way cross combining Biscotti, Jealousy, and Sherb BX genetics, creating a complex genetic profile that delivers both potent effects and exceptional flavor. The strain earned its name due to its distinctive aroma that actually resembles the smell of a permanent marker when properly cultivated, featuring sharp chemical-like notes combined with sweet and gassy undertones. Genetically, Permanent Marker is indica-dominant with a 70% indica and 30% sativa split, though some sources report it as 60% indica and 40% sativa. The buds are typically elongated and conical, displaying vibrant deep green colors with touches of purple, adorned with fiery orange pistils and a generous coating of crystalline trichomes. Its exceptional "bag appeal" and visual presentation have made it instantly recognizable among cannabis connoisseurs.

How do you grow Permanent Marker?
Permanent Marker has a flowering time of 8-10 weeks indoors, with most phenotypes finishing around week 9. It is considered a medium to heavy yielder, producing 400-600g/m² indoors and 700-850g per plant outdoors under optimal conditions. The strain is considered moderately challenging, requiring attention to detail but suitable for intermediate and even beginner cultivators with proper setup. It is primarily recommended for indoor cultivation due to the size and density of the buds, as thick dense nugs might invite botrytis (bud rot) outdoors. Plants are bushy and vigorous, producing thick foliage that benefits from LST, lollipopping, and defoliation techniques to maximize light penetration. Proper ventilation and humidity control are crucial, as the dense foliage can create breeding grounds for pests and pathogens in warm, humid conditions. The strain exhibits remarkable resilience during cultivation and is relatively easy to grow, making it appealing to both novice and experienced growers. Outdoor harvest typically occurs in mid-October in Northern climates.
