Chrystal

Chrystal 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 21-27% on average, with 0.8% CBD. It is sold as feminized seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Chrystal 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 Chrystal 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.

Chrystal has a distinctive skunk 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 dense green nugs with rich blue-purple undertones, curly amber hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

In the garden, Chrystal is an easy, forgiving grow that suits first-time cultivators, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well 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 Chrystal family — see Super Chrystal for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
