Golden Buddha

Golden Buddha is a sativa dominant hybrid (60% sativa/40% indica) strain with a character all of its own. This infamous bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 13-19% on average, with 0.5% CBD. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

Users describe the Golden Buddha high as an immediate uplifting cerebral rush that sharpens focus and sets off waves of creative energy, keeping you motivated and sociable without weighing down the body. Underneath the mental charge, a mellow body calm keeps things comfortable, taking the edge off without ever slowing you down. These combined effects make Golden Buddha a frequent pick among patients dealing with mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

On the palate, expect citrus and chocolate up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a chocolate finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has long tapered spade-shaped bright neon green nugs, fiery orange hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

For growers, Golden Buddha offers an easy, forgiving grow that suits first-time cultivators — expect plants flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks, at home indoors or outdoors. It shrugs off common beginner mistakes, and yields stay respectable even when conditions are less than perfect. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Buddha family — see Buddha Purple Kush and Buddha Tahoe for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
