The Big Buddha has been writing articles for Weed world for several years, as well as providing pictures of the Cheese. In the meantime, during the last two years he has also had the opportunity to work on his genetics in the Meditarranean area.The Big Buddha first acquired a Cheese cutting back in early 2002 and started a little side work on crossing Cheese with an excellent true landrace Afghani male, that was given to him by an old friend who had spent time in the region. Selected female Afghanis were really big yielding plants, with really tight internodes, (as well as a rich, lovely deep fruity bouquet), the male had the same smell and had excellent tight branching. The first cross made was late in 2002. There were some varied results but through selection the best male was backcrossed with the original Cheese. Further to this, with a move to a more suitable location further backcrossing was carried out which helped to add to the hybrid vigour of the strain.Once some seeds had been produced and handed to colleagues in the industry who congratulated The Big Buddha on his work he began full commercial seed production, with an emphasis on testing viability, stability and germination rates of the seeds.

Big Buddha’s Double Cheese was created first by selecting a fruity Blue Cheese and crossing it with Big Buddha’s trademarked Cheese (reversed). The result can only be described as a ‘Whopper’ of a plant that delivers Indica dominant traits that are still very uplifting. The flavours that really come across are hashy with tones of sweet berries – delightful! She will start to flower between 8-10 weeks – expect those old skool skunk aromas with that unique Big Buddha Cheese smell. Yields indoors are between 300g/m2 to 700g/m2 and outdoors you can expect up to 1000gr per plant.Genetics Blue Cheese x Big Buddha Cheese ReversedType Indica DominantFlowering Time 8-10 WeeksYield Indoors 300-700 gr/m2, Outdoors up to 1000 gr/ppTaste Hashy, Berry TonesSmell Old School Skunk, Big Buddha CheeseEffect UpliftingGrows Indoors/Outdoors
