Secret
Also known as: The Secret, Secret OG
Secret Strain Overview
Secret is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its well-rounded effects and complex flavor profile. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming to have developed it, though it is generally believed to have emerged in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States during the early 2010s. The name 'Secret' reflects both the mystery surrounding its genetic lineage and the hidden complexity of its effects, which unfold gradually rather than hitting users all at once.
Visually, Secret typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense, indica-dominant structure. The flowers are often a vibrant green with occasional purple hues that become more pronounced when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, while orange and amber pistils weave through the dense foliage. The strain's aroma is complex and multi-layered, combining earthy, piney notes with subtle hints of citrus and spice.
Notable features of Secret include its balanced effects that appeal to both recreational and medicinal users, as well as its adaptability to various growing conditions. The strain has developed a reputation for providing consistent results whether grown indoors or outdoors, making it a favorite among cultivators of different skill levels. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Secret has maintained a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities who appreciate its reliable performance and versatile effects.

Secret Strain Growing Information
Secret is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready in late September to early October. Indoor yields average 14-18 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor environments, though it prefers a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outside. Plants typically reach a medium height of 4-6 feet, making them manageable for most growing spaces. Special considerations include maintaining stable temperatures (68-80°F) and moderate humidity levels, particularly during flowering to prevent mold. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields.
