Turkish Black Sea

Turkish Black Sea is a evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 15-21% on average, with 0.4% CBD. Seeds come in feminized form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The Turkish Black Sea high balances both sides of its lineage: a happy head buzz up front, and a soothing physical warmth that follows a few minutes behind. The handoff between head and body is seamless, making it easy to dose for either a productive afternoon or a slow evening. These combined effects make Turkish Black Sea a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

Turkish Black Sea has a mouth-filling berry and diesel flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a diesel finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded olive green nugs with deep purple undertones, curly amber hairs and a sticky layer of golden-white trichomes.

In the garden, Turkish Black Sea is a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. 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 Turkish family — see Turkish and Turkish Gummie for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
