Wildcat
Also known as: Wild Cat
Wildcat Strain Overview
Wildcat is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that exists in several distinct phenotypes across different cultivation regions. The most well-documented version was developed by Hyp3rids and features over 75% sativa genetics, while another version appears to be derived from Acapulco Gold genetics. This boutique cultivar has gained recognition primarily through word-of-mouth and small-batch clone distribution rather than widespread commercial availability. The strain exhibits dense, conical buds with crystal-dusted trichomes and vibrant green coloration interspersed with hints of purple and orange pistils. Wildcat's appearance mirrors its wild namesake with a robust, untamed look typical of sativa-dominant varieties.
Wildcat offers a complex sensory profile starting with robust, musky earthiness and sharp petrol undertones that instantly captivate the senses. As the aroma develops, subtle hints of fresh citrus add a bright, uplifting layer that softens the initial intensity. The flavor mirrors its aroma, blending rich earthy elements with zesty citrus notes, creating a complex and layered taste experience. Laboratory testing frequently demonstrates THC levels ranging from 18% to 26%, with most samples stabilizing around 20-22%. The strain's high THC content is supported by minimal CBD presence, typically less than 1%, focusing the experience on psychoactive benefits rather than high-CBD therapeutic applications.

Wildcat Strain Growing Information
Wildcat is considered a moderately challenging strain to cultivate, particularly suited for experienced growers. The strain exhibits classic sativa growth patterns with long, slender leaves and tall stature that can exceed 6 feet outdoors. Indoor cultivation requires training techniques such as topping, LST, and SCROG to manage height. Flowering time ranges from 8-12 weeks, with most phenotypes completing in 10-11 weeks. The strain prefers warm, humid conditions similar to its Acapulco Gold heritage, with temperatures between 70-85°F and humidity levels around 40-50% during vegetative growth, dropping to 30-40% during flowering. Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor grows producing up to 500 grams per square meter and outdoor plants potentially yielding 1.5+ kilograms when grown in optimal conditions. The strain shows good resistance to pests and diseases but requires careful monitoring for mold during the flowering stage due to dense bud development.
