Overview

Black Beard is a premium indica-dominant hybrid strain developed by Karma Genetics in collaboration with renowned breeders Bodhi and Genefinder OG. This strain represents a masterful fusion of genetics, combining Pirate Sweat (itself a cross of Black Afghani × [Bubba Kush × Sour Diesel IBL]) with the robust Biker 081 (HA-OG × Biker Kush v1), discovered during an extensive phenotype hunt in Arizona. The strain gained popularity due to its robust genetics, distinctive characteristics, and consistent high yields, establishing itself as a standout choice among both recreational and medicinal cannabis users. Black Beard exhibits the classic indica-dominant structure with compact, dense buds covered in a generous coating of trichomes. The plants develop sturdy stems with moderate internodal spacing, ensuring good airflow and disease resistance. Its robust genetic background makes it resilient to common pests and diseases while delivering consistently rewarding harvests. The strain's visual appeal is enhanced by its dark, resinous buds that reflect the depth and complexity suggested by its namesake. With THC levels typically ranging from 18-29%, Black Beard delivers potent effects while maintaining the balanced characteristics that make it suitable for both novice and experienced users.

Growing Information

Black Beard is suitable for cultivation indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouse environments. The strain flowers for 9-10 weeks (63-70 days) and produces medium to high yields. Indoor plants typically reach 100-120cm in height under normal conditions, while outdoor cultivation in sunny, temperate climates can achieve medium to high heights. The strain is remarkably resilient with strong resistance to common pests and diseases, making it suitable for growers of all experience levels. Indoor cultivation benefits from training techniques like SCROG (Screen of Green) or LST (Low Stress Training) to maximize yield potential. The plants develop sturdy stems that support dense, resinous buds effectively. Outdoor growing requires good airflow and stable humidity levels during the flowering period, with harvest typically occurring in mid-October.
