Uppercut
Also known as: Upper Cut, Humboldt Uppercut
Uppercut Strain Overview
Uppercut is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing Purple Punch and Sour Dubb, though multiple breeding variations exist including CSI Humboldt's collaboration with UnderRated that combines Girl Scout Cookies x T-1000 with Purple Punch. This strain emerged during the 2010s cannabis breeding era when cultivators sought to fuse the electric clarity and pungent diesel characteristics of Sour strains with the sweet, candied berry depth of Purple Punch genetics.
Uppercut produces dense, oversized spade-shaped buds displaying vibrant forest green coloration with thin orange hairs and deep amber undertones. The flowers are heavily coated with chunky, amber-tinted white crystal trichomes that create a glistening, crystalline appearance signaling high resin content. The strain exhibits spectacular color variations ranging from pink to purple through light green and mauve, topped with a thick layer of frosty trichomes that enhance its striking bag appeal. This cultivar has earned recognition for its potent effects and distinctive aromatic profile that combines fruity sweetness with diesel fuel undertones.

Uppercut Strain Growing Information
Uppercut is classified as a moderate difficulty strain suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Indoor flowering time ranges from 8-10 weeks (63-70 days), with outdoor harvest typically in late October. The strain produces high yields with dense, resin-rich buds. Plants are known for their resilience and adaptability to various growing conditions with proper care. For optimal results, growers should maintain specific light spectrum control during flowering and consider SCROG or netting techniques to support heavy colas. The strain exhibits strong growth with reliable structure and benefits from moderate defoliation for airflow. Environmental controls should include late-bloom humidity near 45-50% to prevent botrytis.
