BC God Bud
BC God Bud
Also known as: God Bud, Purple God Bud
Overview
BC God Bud is an award-winning indica-dominant hybrid (75% indica, 25% sativa) created by the renowned Canadian breeder BC Bud Depot in British Columbia. This legendary strain emerged from crossing a Canadian female strain known as 'God' with Purple Skunk and Hawaiian genetics, resulting in one of the most potent and aromatic cannabis varieties ever produced. The strain gained international recognition when it won 1st place in the Indica category at the 2004 High Times Cannabis Cup, establishing BC Bud Depot as a leading force in Canadian cannabis breeding. BC God Bud was later honored with the 'World's Best Indica' title at multiple Cannabis Cup competitions, cementing its status as a genetic masterpiece.
The strain is characterized by dense, resin-coated buds that display a stunning visual appearance with deep green coloration, purple tinges inherited from its Purple Skunk lineage, and brilliant orange pistils throughout. The flowers are completely covered in a thick layer of white crystal trichomes, giving them a frosty, almost divine appearance that justifies the 'God' moniker. BC God Bud is renowned for producing some of the most powerful aromas in the cannabis world, with a complex terpene profile that creates an intensely fragrant experience. The strain typically grows to 3-4 feet in height with heavy branching and produces notably dense buds, though cultivation requires moderate to advanced growing skills due to its high maintenance requirements.

Growing Information
BC God Bud is considered moderately difficult to grow, making it challenging for novice cultivators. The strain requires extensive pruning and training throughout its growth cycle to maintain proper shape and prevent it from becoming too tall and leggy. It has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks indoors and is ready for harvest in mid-October when grown outdoors. The plant is resistant to mold and mildew, making it suitable for greenhouse cultivation, and can tolerate cooler temperatures (65-80°F). Indoor yields average 4 ounces per square meter using SOG (Sea of Green) methods, while outdoor cultivation produces approximately 3 ounces per plant. The strain responds well to both hydroponic and soil setups but requires careful attention to feeding schedules and pH calibration for optimal results.
