The Cure Strain Overview
The Cure is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by the breeder Exotic Genetix, known for its well-rounded effects and therapeutic potential. The strain was created by crossing the popular indica-dominant hybrid GSC (formerly Girl Scout Cookies) with the sativa-dominant hybrid Cherry Pie, resulting in a genetic profile that combines the best traits of both parent strains. This lineage gives The Cure a reputation for providing both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation, making it suitable for various times of day.
The strain's appearance is characterized by dense, resinous buds that display a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues, often accented by bright orange pistils and a thick coating of trichomes. The buds typically have a compact structure similar to its GSC parent, with a sticky texture that indicates high resin production. The aroma profile is complex, blending sweet, earthy notes from the GSC lineage with fruity undertones inherited from Cherry Pie.
While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, The Cure has gained recognition among medicinal users for its balanced effects. The name suggests therapeutic applications, though specific claims should be approached with caution as individual experiences vary. The strain's genetic stability and consistent performance have made it a reliable choice for both growers and consumers seeking predictable effects from a hybrid variety.

The Cure Strain Growing Information
The Cure is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable climates.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to remain medium in height, making them suitable for indoor cultivation with limited vertical space. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields.
