Summer Rainbows
Summer Rainbows Strain Overview
Summer Rainbows is a relatively rare hybrid cannabis strain that emerged from boutique breeding circles in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States during the late 2010s. The strain was developed by crossing two popular parent strains to create a balanced hybrid with vibrant visual characteristics and a complex aromatic profile. While its exact genetic lineage is sometimes debated among cultivators, it is generally accepted to be a carefully selected phenotype bred for its unique combination of effects and appearance.
The strain is noted for its visually striking buds, which often display a colorful array of hues including deep purples, bright greens, and occasional orange pistils, reminiscent of a summer rainbow—hence its name. The nugs are typically dense and resinous, covered in a frosty layer of trichomes. The aroma profile is complex, blending sweet, fruity notes with earthy undertones and a hint of diesel. The flavor follows suit, offering users a smooth smoke with a sweet aftertaste.
Summer Rainbows has gained a cult following among connoisseurs for its balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The strain's moderate to high THC content makes it suitable for experienced users, while its balanced nature prevents overwhelming psychoactive effects. Due to its relative rarity and boutique origins, Summer Rainbows is not widely available in commercial markets but is prized by home growers and specialty dispensaries in legal regions.

Summer Rainbows Strain Growing Information
Summer Rainbows is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower within 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by late September to early October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields are moderate, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments but thrives in temperate climates with consistent sunlight. Plants tend to be medium in height, usually reaching 3-4 feet indoors and 5-6 feet outdoors. Summer Rainbows requires careful attention to nutrient levels and benefits from training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize yield. The plants are moderately resistant to common pests and molds but need good air circulation to prevent bud rot, especially in humid conditions. Growers should monitor pH levels closely as this strain can be sensitive to nutrient imbalances.
