High Mars

# High Mars High Mars is an exceptionally potent hybrid strain with pronounced sativa characteristics. This cultivar represents the culmination of selective breeding work, combining genetics from two dominant, THC-abundant parent strains: Lost Tribe and Bombsicle. Breeders identified a female Lost Tribe specimen exhibiting the highest THC concentration alongside a distinctly fruity profile, then crossed it with a robust Bombsicle male. Subsequent generations were selected for maximum THC levels and enhanced fruity aromatics. Backcrossing techniques locked in these desirable traits—elevated THC content and a distinctive fruit bouquet reminiscent of ripe strawberries. ## Effects and Experience This strain delivers immediate cerebral sensations that transition into euphoric bliss. Initial mental elevation and heightened mood gradually shift toward physical calm and a sensation of weightlessness. The balanced hybrid composition creates a potent, uplifting experience with psychedelic undertones that strikes suddenly and intensely. Mental clarity increases alongside creative thinking and novel perspectives. Deep relaxation follows the cerebral phase, potentially leading to extended, quality sleep, particularly in less experienced consumers. With THC levels reaching 36%, High Mars addresses chronic pain, sleep disturbances, depression, and stress-related conditions. ## Flavor and Aroma Profile Sweet strawberry notes dominate the taste, accompanied by subtle tartness. The aromatic profile is similarly fruity and strawberry-forward. ## Visual Characteristics Buds are substantial and densely formed, coated abundantly with resinous material and crystalline trichomes extending across surrounding foliage. This heavy trichome coverage creates a white, sparkling, heavily frosted appearance. ## Cultivation Information **Flowering Duration:** 9-10 weeks High Mars adapts well to SOG and hydroponic systems. Soil-based organic cultivation optimizes terpene expression. Adequate light intensity—whether indoor or sunlight—is essential for optimal development. UVB exposure of 3-4 hours daily during the final four flowering weeks enhances THC production. Outdoors, this strain thrives in sunny conditions. Plants reach medium height with short to medium spacing between nodes and hybrid-type foliage. Early-stage pruning and super-cropping manage moderate vertical stretch. Dry, sunny climates suit outdoor cultivation best. The strain tolerates elevated temperatures with sufficient irrigation. In Mediterranean regions, harvest occurs late September through early October. Temperature decreases trigger deep red, purple, and black coloration in leaves and flowers, creating visually striking plants. ## Medical Applications Patients managing chronic pain, insomnia, depression, and stress may find this strain beneficial.
