Squid Ink

Squid Ink is a sativa dominant hybrid (70% sativa/30% indica) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 24-30% on average, with 0.7% CBD. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The Squid Ink 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. Because of these effects, Squid Ink is often chosen for managing mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

On the palate, expect citrus and coffee up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a coffee finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has dense grape-shaped forest green nugs with cool blue undertones, rust-colored hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

In the garden, Squid Ink is a demanding plant best left to experienced growers, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well 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 Ink family — see Purple Ink for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
