Plus Ultra
What is the Plus Ultra strain?
Plus Ultra is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Plus Ultra is a relatively rare cannabis strain that has gained attention among connoisseurs for its balanced effects and complex flavor profile. The strain's name, which translates to 'further beyond' in Latin, reflects its reputation for providing an uplifting yet grounded experience. While its exact origins remain somewhat obscure, it appears to have emerged from the West Coast cannabis scene in the early 2010s, likely developed by boutique breeders seeking to create a versatile hybrid with both recreational and potential therapeutic applications.
The strain's physical characteristics include dense, conical buds with a frosty coating of trichomes that give the flowers a shimmering appearance. The coloration typically ranges from deep forest green to purple hues, with vibrant orange pistils weaving through the compact flower structure. The buds are known for their resinous texture and sticky feel when properly cured, indicating high cannabinoid and terpene content.
Notable features of Plus Ultra include its well-balanced genetic expression, which provides effects that many users describe as neither overwhelmingly sedating nor excessively stimulating. This equilibrium makes it suitable for various times of day and different experience levels. The strain's rarity means it's not widely available in commercial markets, but it has developed a cult following among those who have experienced its unique combination of cerebral elevation and physical relaxation.

Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
