The Challenger
The Challenger Strain Overview
The Challenger is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by Terp Fi3nd with a complex genetic lineage. This strain is the result of crossing two distinct parent lines: the mother plant is 706 Skunk (91 Chem x Deep Chunk crossed with Skunk #1), while the father is 706 Sherbet (91 Chem x Deep Chunk crossed with Sunset Sherbet x Kimbo Kush). The genetic foundation includes notable cannabis genetics from the Chemdawg family (91 Chem), known for its pungent, diesel-like characteristics, combined with classic strains like Skunk #1 and modern favorites like Sunset Sherbet. This complex breeding results in a strain that likely exhibits characteristics from both indica and sativa lineages, though specific phenotypic expressions may vary. The strain is noted for its versatility in cultivation environments and represents the modern trend of multi-generational breeding that combines classic genetics with contemporary favorites to create unique hybrid expressions.
The Challenger Strain Growing Information
The Challenger can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouse environments with good adaptability to different growing conditions. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 65 days (around 9-10 weeks), which is typical for hybrid varieties. Terp Fi3nd's The Challenger was never made available as feminized seeds, meaning growers work with regular seeds that produce both male and female plants. Given its complex genetic background involving multiple hybridizations, growers should expect some phenotypic variation and may need to select plants that express desired characteristics. The strain's lineage suggests it should be moderately vigorous and adaptable to various cultivation techniques.
