South Mountain Golden
Also known as: SMG
South Mountain Golden Strain Overview
South Mountain Golden is a pure sativa cannabis strain developed by Spanish seed bank Xtreme Seeds Co. The strain has its genetic origins from Mexican landrace varieties, specifically tracing back to Guerrero, Mexico, making it a descendant of legendary American continent genetics. This strain represents part of Xtreme Seeds' philosophy of genetic preservation and innovation, working with prestigious genetics that have never been crossed before.
The plant exhibits classic sativa characteristics with asymmetrical growth patterns and produces abundant foliage with emerald green coloration that transforms into spectacular golden tones at the end of flowering, giving the strain its distinctive name. South Mountain Golden grows tall with many long branches that develop very resinous, dense flowers at their ends. The strain is noted for producing large leaves with skinny, long blades that can grow as large as a person's head. Despite being a pure sativa, it finishes flowering relatively quickly for the category, typically requiring 8-9 weeks (about 2 months) indoors under optimal conditions, though it may take up to 12 weeks if growing conditions are not ideal.
