Tips for Growing Blackberry Kush Cannabis

Ever wanted to grow your favorite strain? Leafly and Botanicare are teaming up on a series of grow guides that will equip you with all the tips and tricks you need to grow different strains successfully.

Strain Overview: Blackberry Kush is the striking aromatic cross between Afghani and Blackberry. Known for blooming with dark purple hues and radiant orange hairs, this indica offers a fruity flavor mixed in with earthy Kush flavors. Blackberry Kush is a wonderful strain for patients seeking relief from pain and sleeplessness.

Grow Techniques: SOG (sea of green) is the best way to get a hearty yield out of Blackberry Kush. Keep the canopy as clear as you can to prevent mold or pests from infecting the plants. Blackberry Kush is a good option for growing hydroponically if you can acquire the clones to run SOG. Increasing bud sites is the way to get a good yield on Blackberry Kush as the flowers themselves will be small.

Flowering Time: 7 to 8 weeks

Yield: Moderate

Grow Difficulty: Moderate

Climate: Prefers low humidity and mild to warm climates between 68 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit.

Indoor/Outdoor: Ideally grown indoors, Blackberry Kush can be demanding if grown outside as it is sensitive to inclement weather.

Feeding: Consider heavy magnesium feeding throughout the grow with a focus on nitrogen as the plant is vegging to increase the development of nodes.
