Slymer Strain Overview
Slymer is a celebrated sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (60% sativa/40% indica) that originated as a distinctive phenotype of the renowned Chernobyl strain. Bred by TGA Genetics and later refined by MzJill Genetics, this strain emerged in the early 2010s during the West Coast craft cannabis phenotype hunting era. Developed by TGA Genetics, Slymer has carved out a niche for itself within the cannabis community due to its unique characteristics, which are a direct result of its prestigious genetic background. The strain's lineage traces back to a cross between Jack the Ripper and a phenotype of Trainwreck (specifically Blood Wreck), creating the parent Chernobyl strain from which Slymer was selected.
Visually, Slymer presents tapered spade-shaped dusty green nugs with lots of amber hairs and a coating of frosty milky amber crystal trichomes. It has light orange pistils but is caked in a heavy frosting of yellowish trichomes which make it dense and very sticky. The strain is renowned for its exceptional resin production, with many growers noting its extremely frosty appearance and sticky texture. Slymer's most distinguishing characteristic is its sweet and citrusy terpene profile, with rich, sweet, and distinctly citrusy terpene profile, which infuses each experience with enjoyable and invigorating lemon-lime nuances. This lime sherbet-like aroma has become the strain's signature, making it easily recognizable to experienced cannabis users.

Slymer Strain Growing Information
Slymer is considered moderately difficult to grow, recommended for growers with some experience. The strain thrives in Mediterranean climates and can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors. Indoor plants reach heights of 5-8 feet and yield 280-560 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce up to 560 grams per plant. Flowering time is 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvest typically occurring in early to mid-October or the first week of October in Northern California. The plants exhibit typical sativa structure with vigorous lateral growth and require regular maintenance to manage height and achieve maximum resin production. Slymer is noted for being a hungry plant, particularly requiring nitrogen during weeks 4-5 of flowering. The strain is water, light, and nutrient sensitive, requiring careful monitoring. Plants are susceptible to caterpillars outdoors and benefit from early topping and training to stay low and manageable.
