Dr. Blaze – Big Bud
Afghan x NL x Skunk #1
Origins of the Strain:
When it comes to the Big Bud strain, we’re speaking of the fusion of some classic cannabis strains – Afghan, NL (Northern Lights), and Skunk #1. Each parent has a distinct personality, coming together to create this exceptionally potent strain that is aptly named Big Bud for its enormous, resin-filled buds.
Afghan is known for its heavy resin production and strong sedating effects, while Northern Lights is a famed indica strain celebrated for its fast flowering time and resilience. Skunk #1, on the other hand, is a balanced hybrid strain known for its strong skunky aroma and balanced high.
Terpene Profile and Aromas:
Drawing in the Big Bud strain, the first thing I notice is the robust earthy and woody aroma, reminiscent of a peaceful walk in the woods. Underneath this earthy base, there’s a layer of sweetness, a reminder of the Skunk #1 influence.
Big Bud’s terpene profile is primarily made up of myrcene, caryophyllene, and limonene, creating a harmonious blend of sweet and earthy notes. The smoke from Big Bud is smooth and rich, making every puff a pleasant experience that leaves a sweet, slightly spicy aftertaste.
Other Cannabis Strains:
Big Bud shares its exceptional genetics with several other potent strains. Northern Lights #5, Afghan Kush, and Skunk #1 are strains that share genes with Big Bud. Northern Lights #5 is a celebrated phenotype of Northern Lights, Afghan Kush boasts of the Afghani lineage, while Skunk #1 shares the same Skunk parentage.
