Shoki Strain Overview
Shoki is a hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition within cannabis enthusiast communities, though it remains relatively rare compared to mainstream commercial varieties. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with different sources attributing its development to various West Coast breeders in the United States during the early 2010s. Most accounts suggest Shoki emerged from the Pacific Northwest region, where it was cultivated by boutique growers who appreciated its unique characteristics and balanced effects.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance characterized by dark green foliage contrasted by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance. The buds often exhibit a compact, indica-dominant structure despite the strain's hybrid classification. Shoki's visual appeal is enhanced by its resin production, which makes it popular among concentrate producers and extract enthusiasts.
Notable features of Shoki include its complex aromatic profile and balanced effects that combine physical relaxation with cerebral stimulation. The strain has maintained a cult following among connoisseurs who appreciate its nuanced characteristics, though it has not achieved widespread commercial distribution. Its relative rarity means that authentic Shoki phenotypes can be difficult to source, and variations may exist between different growers' interpretations of the strain.

Shoki Strain Growing Information
Shoki is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for experienced growers. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant. Shoki prefers a controlled indoor environment or Mediterranean-like outdoor conditions with consistent temperatures and low humidity, particularly during flowering to prevent mold. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper air circulation due to the dense bud structure and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding.
