Recharge
Recharge Strain Overview
Recharge is a modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by the breeder Compound Genetics, known for its balanced effects and complex flavor profile. The strain was created by crossing the popular Gelato 41 with an undisclosed, potent indica-dominant parent, resulting in a genetic profile that leans slightly indica-dominant. Its history is relatively recent, emerging in the late 2010s as part of a wave of designer hybrids focused on delivering robust effects alongside appealing sensory characteristics. Recharge has gained recognition primarily within connoisseur and medical cannabis communities for its reliable performance and well-rounded experience.
The plant exhibits a visually striking appearance, typically producing dense, resinous buds with a structure that combines the chunkiness of its indica heritage with some sativa-like floral clustering. The nugs are often a deep green hue, frequently accented by vibrant purple and orange pistils, and are heavily coated in a frosty layer of trichomes, indicating high cannabinoid and terpene production. Notable features include its pungent aroma, which translates directly into its flavor, and its relatively consistent growth patterns, making it a favored choice among cultivators seeking a dependable, high-yielding strain with commercial appeal.
Recharge is characterized by its ability to deliver a potent yet manageable experience, often described as both physically relaxing and mentally uplifting. The strain's effects typically manifest in a gradual onset, beginning with cerebral euphoria that transitions into full-body relaxation without excessive sedation. This balanced nature, combined with its complex terpene profile, has contributed to its popularity among users seeking relief from various conditions without overwhelming psychoactivity. However, as with many modern hybrids, individual experiences can vary based on phenotype, cultivation methods, and user tolerance.

Recharge Strain Growing Information
Recharge is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for intermediate growers. It has a flowering time of approximately 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor harvests typically occur in mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere. The plant tends to be medium in height, often staying manageable indoors with proper training, while outdoor plants can become taller and bushier. Expected yields are above average, with indoor growers reporting 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, and outdoor plants producing 500-600 grams or more per plant. It thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a controlled indoor setting or a warm, Mediterranean-like outdoor climate. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels to prevent mold due to its dense bud structure, and implementing training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize light penetration and yield. The strain responds well to nutrient-rich soil or hydroponic systems.
