Ultra 85
What is the Ultra 85 strain?
Ultra 85 is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Ultra 85 is a relatively rare cannabis hybrid strain that emerged in the early 2020s, though its exact origins remain somewhat obscure within the cannabis community. The strain appears to have been developed by boutique breeders rather than major commercial seed banks, contributing to its limited availability and somewhat mysterious background. Its name suggests a connection to either a specific breeding project or a reference to its purported effects, though documentation about its naming convention is sparse.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance characterized by deep green foliage interspersed with vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of frosty trichomes. The nugs often display a slightly purple hue when grown under optimal temperature conditions, particularly during the final flowering stages. Ultra 85's visual appeal is enhanced by its resin production, which tends to be above average for hybrids in its THC range.
Notable features of Ultra 85 include its balanced genetic profile and complex aromatic profile. While specific lineage details are not widely documented by mainstream breeders, the strain exhibits characteristics suggesting a carefully selected cross between indica and sativa varieties. Its rarity means that consistent phenotypic expressions can vary between different growers' batches, and some cannabis enthusiasts consider it a collector's strain due to its limited commercial availability.

How do you grow Ultra 85?
Ultra 85 is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready by mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Plants tend to be medium in height, reaching approximately 4-5 feet indoors and 5-7 feet outdoors when given adequate space.
Yield expectations are moderate, with indoor growers reporting approximately 14-18 ounces per square meter under optimal conditions, while outdoor plants can produce 16-22 ounces per plant. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods, though it prefers stable environmental conditions with consistent temperatures between 68-80°F (20-27°C). Ultra 85 benefits from regular pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize light penetration and bud development.
Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during the flowering phase (ideally 40-50% RH) to prevent mold issues, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture retention. The plants generally exhibit good resistance to common pests and diseases, though preventative measures are still recommended. Some phenotypes may require additional support during late flowering due to heavy bud development.
