Shark Attack
Shark Attack
Overview
Shark Attack is a 70/30 indica-dominant hybrid from Dinafem Seeds, created from a cross of Super Skunk and White Widow. This strain turns into thick and compact Indica-looking marijuana plants that are perfect for indoor growers or for discretion-seekers, with a 100% Indica appearance featuring compact, branchy structure, short internodal spacing and wide leaves. The strain won 1st prize in the Indoor category at Copa Cannabis Uruguay 2015.
Though it produces relatively modest levels of THC (12-16%) and significant amounts of CBD, the high is powerfully relaxing and long lasting. Shark Attack produces a very strong odor of earthy hash with floral and lemon undertones, and tastes much like it smells, with broken apart or combusted buds releasing a tangy but subtle lemon that eventually fills the room. Her appearance is dense and squat, with a large main cola and several surrounding branches that give her a bushy look. Her buds are large, compact and highly resinous, with flowers particularly striking, full of orangey hairs and trichomes forming an alluring white layer all over her leaves too.

Growing Information
Shark Attack is compact, easy to grow, and high yielding, suitable for indoor, outdoor, or greenhouse cultivation, and almost any kind of grower, regardless of their experience and expertise, could make the most out of her. It needs about 7-8 weeks of flowering (50-55 days), resulting in some very potent, thick, and resinous buds. Harvests are usually impressive, averaging about 500g/m² indoors and up to 1000g/plant (1kg) outdoors. Height reaches up to 2.5 meters outdoor with medium height indoor. Shark Attack is not particularly greedy, so a standard diet should do, and her compact size makes it unnecessary to monitor her growth and to use any trellising or staking. Her Achilles' heel is moisture, as the density of Shark Attack could turn this plant into a paradise for fungi, particularly at the end of the flowering phase if growing outdoors in a humid climate, so harvesting is recommended before the first half of October in the northern hemisphere.
