Short & Sticky
Also known as: Short and Sticky, Short N Sticky
What is the Short & Sticky strain?
Short & Sticky is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and earthy and pine flavor profile.
Short & Sticky is a relatively obscure indica-dominant hybrid strain that has gained attention among cannabis enthusiasts for its compact growth structure and resinous buds. The strain's exact origins are somewhat uncertain, with limited documentation available about its development history. What is known suggests it emerged from underground breeding circles in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States during the early 2000s, though some sources indicate it may have Canadian origins. The strain appears to have been developed specifically for discreet cultivation, with breeders selecting for short stature and high resin production.
The strain's name accurately describes its two most prominent characteristics: a notably short plant height and exceptionally sticky trichome coverage. Short & Sticky typically grows to only 60-90 centimeters (24-36 inches) in height, making it particularly suitable for indoor cultivation where space is limited. The buds are dense and compact, with a deep green coloration often accented by purple hues and a heavy coating of amber trichomes that gives the flowers their distinctive sticky texture. The strain's resin production is remarkable, often requiring careful handling during trimming and consumption.
Short & Sticky is considered a rare strain with limited commercial availability, primarily circulating among specialty growers and collectors. Its genetic stability varies between different seed batches, suggesting the strain may not have undergone extensive stabilization through multiple breeding generations. The limited documentation and commercial presence make comprehensive information about this strain challenging to verify, though anecdotal reports from growers and users provide some insight into its characteristics and effects.

How do you grow Short & Sticky?
Short & Sticky is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, primarily due to its sensitivity to environmental conditions. The strain has a relatively short flowering time of 7-8 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready by late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Yield is moderate, with indoor growers reporting approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. The strain prefers indoor cultivation where environmental factors can be carefully controlled, though it can be grown outdoors in temperate climates with low humidity.
The plant's compact size makes it ideal for small spaces, stealth grows, and Sea of Green (SOG) setups. Height typically ranges from 60-90 cm (24-36 inches) even without training, though some growers report slightly taller phenotypes. Short & Sticky requires careful attention to humidity control during flowering, as the dense buds are susceptible to mold in high humidity conditions. The strain responds well to low-stress training (LST) techniques but is sensitive to nutrient levels, requiring a balanced feeding regimen without excessive nitrogen during flowering. Growers should ensure adequate air circulation around the dense buds to prevent moisture buildup.
