Flo, also known as "DJ Short Flo," is an award-winning hybrid marijuana strain. This #1 rated Cannabis Cup winner of 1996 is the love child of Purple Thai and an Afghani Indica, bred by Dutch Passion and later propagated by DJ Short. The plant is described as having pear-shaped buds with purple calyxes. Flo can potentially be harvested multiple times, creating a "flo" of buds. The effects of Flo are characterized as light and energetic, allowing for clarity of thought.

Strain: Flo 0.5g Brand: Cresco Type: RSO, labeled sativa, feels more hybrid THC: 72.09% Lineage: Purple Thai & Afghani Look: Nice & dark Effects: Happy, pain relief, hungry, euphoria, relaxed, and creative Top 3 Terps: B-Carophyllene-0.26%, Humulene-0.07%, Linalool-0.06% Other Cannabinoids: THCV-0.68%, CBG-2.39%, CBC-1.05% Total Cannabinoids: 76.21% Ranking: 8.5/10 Since my headaches have randomly been getting worse I figured it was time to get RSO again. I do enjoy this one over some of the others I've had. I think I found my proper dosings for all my needs, man do I need different doses for different things! Also for anyone that ingests RSO/Distillates that have dentures, you can just put it on you denture plate like denture glue LOL. I also enjoy taking a dab of RSO every now & then. Before you jump down to the comments to tell me you can dab RSO, yes, you can, no it's not a waste. I've noticed it provides strong psychoactive effects but lasts less long as other concentrates when dabbing. Flo is doing surprisingly well for the headache, and I'm hoping next time I have a migraine this will help.

Finally got a version of flo that hits me pretty hard, it has a lot of the fruity smell attached to it. This phenotype Flo #2 it has a white purple leafs and bush out more wide than tall, there is a lot of room in-between the branches and calyxes are very frosty and foxtail outwards,it's pretty heavy for the weight to size ratio surprisingly. The pistols on this thing are blood red mad, and have a gradient of bright starting at the base and dark at the tips. This version of flo hits me straight dead on and I have a lot of the creative side, there is no lingering effects and I feel happy, but not so overly stoned. I finally understand the nice balance of this strain the purple thai really shimmers in this strain the afghani structure for the bushy-ness over all wonderfull and excellent it replaces my morning cup of coffee very worth it. I also wrote this review, simply because the phenotype of this strain is just a stronger version of flow. There would have to be a different cross of genetics to create a different phenotype that or just heavily inbreeding to create something new. Over all a great sativa/ awakening. Helps with pain concentration and getting my shiz done for the day thanks flo your really nice tasting and the effects are great and the cut off is nice and straight forward :D. Makes me a happier camper.

I grew this strain the very first year cannabis was legal to grow. In S. Oregon, we can grow up to 6 plants w/o a permit. I moved here from Texas that year so my skills were a little rusty. Thank goodness my neighbor, (a police man)was a lifelong seasoned grower here in SW Oregon. He knew what strains would grow the best in our micro climate. We planted six trees in Gold Hill and six in Sam’s Valley. The GH grow was all Flo by DJ Short. We ended up starting them in February inside a tent and on Mother’s Day they gradually went outside until they were ready for full sun. Those trees were planted in 100 gallon smart pots and every one of them were over 14’ tall. After harvest we had accumulated 46#’s of some of the most beautiful buds I had ever seen before. The taste was fruity and EVERYONE wanted to buy some. It sold out faster than the DJ Shorts Blueberry. Both are great strains but Flo is one I’ll NEVER forget. The colas on every Flo tree were as big around as my thighs and super tall. Bugs absolutely hate this strain so pests are not a problem really. The colas are very tight so in order to keep them from molding or rotting, you’ll definitely need a fan and a dehumidifier. Keep the room cool around 70 with all lights off. I found that they tend to tighten up quite a bit so don’t hang the whole cola thinking it won’t rot because it usually will. I gave this strain 5 stars because everything about this strain kicks butt. It’s not lacking anything really. It has the look, taste, smell, and high that makes this strain top shelf everywhere it sells.
