Walkabout
Walkabout Strain Overview
Walkabout is a sativa-leaning hybrid strain created by combining genetics from Thai, Northern Indian, Haze, Mexican, and Early Skunk varieties. Bred by the renowned Mr. Nice Seedbank, this strain was developed during a period of experimentation with sativa genetics by powerhouse breeders in the cannabis community. The name "Walkabout" pays tribute to the Aboriginal Australian tradition—a personal journey through nature and self-discovery—and this strain lives up to that concept with a high that invites exploration and inspired thought. The buds are light green with subtle purple touches, covered in bright orange hairs and a coating of trichomes, displaying the typical sativa structure. Walkabout emits a bright tropical aroma featuring citrus, sweet herbs, and hints of skunk, while offering fruity and floral flavors on the inhale followed by soft earthiness and spice on the exhale.
Genetic studies indicate this strain combines fast flowering times with resilient growth characteristics, with controlled environment observations showing Walkabout plants maturing 10-15% faster than standard sativa strains. The strain is primarily recommended for outdoor and greenhouse cultivation because of its substantial size that can overwhelm small indoor spaces. Flowering time ranges around 100 days (approximately 14-15 weeks) when grown outdoors or in greenhouse conditions, with harvest typically occurring from September to November in the northern hemisphere. This strain represents an excellent introduction to sativa landrace experiences while maintaining accessibility for both novice and experienced growers seeking a globally-influenced genetic profile.

Walkabout Strain Growing Information
Walkabout is primarily recommended for outdoor and greenhouse cultivation due to its substantial height that can overwhelm small indoor spaces. The strain requires approximately 100 days (14-15 weeks) of flowering time when grown outdoors or in greenhouses. Plants can reach average heights of 150-180 centimeters when grown outdoors, while indoor setups often yield robust, bushy structures. Optimal growing conditions include stable temperatures maintained between 20°C and 26°C. Its sativa-dominant genetics mean plants will develop long branches and may require training techniques to maximize bud production. Expected yields are around 450 grams per square meter indoors, with outdoor plants capable of producing 600+ grams per plant under optimal conditions. Harvest typically occurs from September to November in the northern hemisphere. This strain is suitable for growers from inexperienced to advanced levels and is particularly recommended for first-time outdoor growers.
