Pic-a-nic Basket
Also known as: Picnic Basket
Pic-a-nic Basket Strain Overview
Pic-a-nic Basket is a relatively rare cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2020s from boutique breeders in the Pacific Northwest. The strain's whimsical name references the classic animated series 'Yogi Bear,' though its exact origin story remains somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding circles. Breeders describe it as a carefully balanced hybrid developed through selective breeding of parent strains to achieve specific aromatic and effect profiles.
The strain is characterized by medium-sized, dense buds that exhibit a distinctive color palette of deep forest green with occasional purple hues, accented by vibrant orange pistils. A thick coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty appearance. The plant structure tends to be bushy with moderate internodal spacing, making it suitable for various cultivation environments. Its rarity means documented information comes primarily from breeder notes and limited grower reports rather than widespread commercial availability.
Notable features include its complex aromatic profile that combines sweet, fruity notes with earthy undertones, creating what some enthusiasts describe as a 'picnic basket' assortment of scents. The strain's effects are reported to be well-balanced between cerebral and physical sensations, though comprehensive laboratory analysis and widespread user reports remain limited due to its niche status in the cannabis market.

Pic-a-nic Basket Strain Growing Information
Pic-a-nic Basket is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Plants tend to reach medium height, averaging 3-4 feet indoors and 4-6 feet outdoors. Yield is moderate, producing approximately 14-18 ounces per square meter indoors or 16-20 ounces per plant outdoors under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments, though it prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures when grown outside. Indoor cultivation benefits from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to manage height and improve light penetration. The plants are moderately resistant to common pests and molds but require good air circulation and humidity control during flowering. Nutrient requirements are average, responding well to balanced feeding schedules without excessive nitrogen during flowering.
