Smoked Catfish
Also known as: Smoked Catfish Hybrid
Smoked Catfish Strain Overview
Smoked Catfish is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Midnight Roots Genetics as a cross between the legendary Michigan strain Catfish and Fire18 (a Fire OG phenotype). The original Catfish parent strain won 1st place at the 2014 High Times Michigan Medical Cannabis Cup and was named a Top 10 Strain of the Year by High Times in 2016. Smoked Catfish inherits the award-winning genetics of its Catfish parent, which is believed to be a backcross of OG #18 from DNA Genetics. The strain represents a fusion of traditional breeding excellence and modern innovation, combining the euphoric sativa effects of Catfish with the relaxing indica properties of Fire18. Visually, Smoked Catfish produces robust, dense buds with a distinct sheen, featuring rich dark green coloration contrasted by deep purple hues and bright orange pistils. The compact bud structure indicates a well-conditioned plant destined for strong cannabinoid and terpene production. The strain has gained recognition for its complex aromatic profile and balanced effects, making it suitable for both recreational and medical users seeking a multi-dimensional cannabis experience.

Smoked Catfish Strain Growing Information
Smoked Catfish can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 65-70 days (9-10 weeks). The strain offers moderate growing difficulty, making it suitable for intermediate to advanced cultivators. It requires careful attention to nutrient timing, with young plants needing nitrogen-rich feeding that gradually transitions to increased phosphorus and potassium during flowering. The strain benefits from controlled temperature and pH monitoring, with proper curing over 2-4 weeks being essential for optimal flavor and cannabinoid stability. Indoor yields are typically higher than average for OG varieties, while outdoor cultivation is possible in appropriate climates. The plants tend to grow medium to tall in stature with dense, resinous bud formation.
