RIL Black
Also known as: R.I.L. Black
RIL Black Strain Overview
RIL Black is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Tonygreens Tortured Beans, created through crossing GG4 RIL (Gorilla Glue #4 Recombinant Inbred Line) with Black Rose. The strain represents advanced breeding work, utilizing a recombinant inbred line methodology where two highly inbred parental lines were combined to create superior F1 hybrid vigor. The GG4 RIL parent comes from nearly a decade of meticulous line breeding by Tony Green, combining Gorilla Bubble BX5 with GG4 BX6 to achieve over 95% genetic recovery of the original Gorilla Glue #4 characteristics.
The Black Rose parent contributes its own distinct characteristics to the cross. While there are multiple strains called Black Rose, the specific lineage used by Tonygreens appears to be Heath Robinson's creation combining Black Russian genetics with other undisclosed parents. This hybrid is designed for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, with a flowering time of approximately 63 days and expected yields ranging from medium to heavy. The strain showcases the sophisticated breeding approach that Tonygreens Tortured Beans is known for, creating stable genetics with consistent phenotype expression through rigorous line breeding and backcrossing techniques.

RIL Black Strain Growing Information
RIL Black can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 63 days (9 weeks). Expected yields range from medium to heavy, making it attractive for commercial and personal cultivation. The strain benefits from the hybrid vigor typical of recombinant inbred line crosses, potentially showing increased growth rates and resilience. Plants are suitable for both indoor grow operations and outdoor gardens, adapting well to various growing conditions. The advanced breeding behind this strain suggests improved stability and consistency compared to typical F1 hybrids, with more predictable phenotype expression. Growers can expect robust plants with strong branching and resin production inherited from the GG4 lineage.
