Silk Road

Silk Road is a sativa dominant hybrid (65% sativa/35% indica) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 23-29% on average, with 1% CBD. It is sold as regular seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Silk Road high hits fast and heady — a bright, clear-eyed lift that fuels conversation, ideas and forward momentum, with only a light touch of physical relaxation underneath. 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 Silk Road 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.

Silk Road has a delicious sweet and earthy 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 sweet-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has compact rounded bright neon green nugs, thin orange hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

For growers, Silk Road offers a demanding plant best left to experienced growers — expect plants flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks, at home indoors or outdoors. Dialed-in climate control and careful pruning are repaid with exceptional bag appeal and top-shelf potency. 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 Silk family — see Spider Silk #4 and African Silk for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
