After 12 years of growing, testing and experimenting with many different varieties, Paradise Seeds was founded in 1994. About 17 years ago in Amsterdam, many coffeeshops started to sell imported hash from India Afghanistan or Morocco and weed from Thailand, Columbia, Mexico or Malawi. Most of this was of poor quality. But things were changing, new types were introduced from the U.S that were early crossbreeds of already higher quality. Since then we got involved in the early research for better quality strains. This took place in Amsterdam and at several outdoor locations in Holland. Our aim was to create better weed, with a sweet/spicy taste and stronger high, for our own use.
Choice of Legends (Hybrid)… Mendocino Skunk, developed in collaboration with Chong’s Choice, is a well rounded combination of sativa and indica to produce a good yield plant that is easy to grow and delivers a delightful user experience.The Mendocino Skunk is inspired by a meeting of great cannabis traditions from California’s Emerald Triangle and Holland’s Amsterdam coffeeshop scene. Mendocino county sits on California’s north coast and its name has been associated with great weed since the 1960s. The perfect climate and a community knowledge base has made it a breeding ground for quality cannabis.For this exciting hybrid project we chose to combine the essence of Mendocino with the best Dutch genetics from the Paradise Seeds vault and we are very pleased with the results. This plant is shorter and bushier than many varieties which makes it a good option for the beginner, although experienced growers will appreciate the ease of growth and pleasant all round qualities.A good addition to the indoor grow setup, Mendocino Skunk is a stable plant that will grow to a medium size so a good option if your grow room space is limited. With a thick central cola, the side branches of this plant will provide good bud growth and the calyx-to-leaf ratio makes for a speedy trim job once harvest comes.This plant will also thrive in outdoor grow spaces, providing a happy experience for growers in northern regions of Europe, Canada and America thanks to the Mendocino factor in the Skunk mix. In warmer, more Mediterranean climates, there is potential to boost optimum yield levels as this is a plant that will respond well in the sunshine.The fruity flavor and skunky tones will have your taste buds tingling for more and is an indication of the pleasurable hit that is coming your way. The effect, as you may expect from its hybrid nature, is well balanced and smooth. ‘Uplifting’ is a characteristic that has been used to describe Mendocino Skunk, with a positive high and a sense of well being that will brighten up the day. Mendocino Skunk also comes with properties that will appeal to medical patients thanks to its hybrid composition. The indica brings a relaxation effect while the sativa characteristic energizes the mind allowing the user to focus on everyday tasks.Indica/Sativa Ratio 60% Indica / 40% SativaIndoor Flowering Time From 49 Days to 56 DaysEffect/Buzz Cerebral and relaxedSmell/Taste Skunky with the fruity sweetness of strawberryYield Outdoor (GR/PP) 1000 GrYield Indoor (gr/m2) 700 Gr
