Derecho

Derecho is a sativa dominant hybrid (60% sativa/40% indica) strain with a character all of its own. THC testing typically lands between 21% and 27%, pairing raw strength with a 0.3% CBD content. Seeds come in feminized form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

Users describe the Derecho 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. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. These combined effects make Derecho a frequent pick among patients dealing with mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

Derecho has a mouth-filling earthy and coffee flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. Each exhale leaves a earthy-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has long tapered spade-shaped vivid green nugs with warm amber tones, curly amber hairs and a sticky layer of golden-white trichomes.

In the garden, Derecho 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.
