Boomerang
Boomerang
Overview
Boomerang is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (60% sativa/40% indica) developed by Spanish breeder Mamiko Seeds. This strain represents a sophisticated genetic combination of two back-crossed strains: Amnesia Cookies BX and Fire Afghan BX (Fire OG x Kush). The Amnesia Cookies parent balances the strong sativa dominance of Amnesia Haze with Girl Scout Cookies genetics, while the Fire Afghan back-cross strengthens the OG Kush characteristics using Fire OG genetics. The name "Boomerang" reflects the circular nature of this breeding approach, utilizing back-crossed genetics to enhance specific traits. The strain exhibits typical hybrid structure with medium internode distance and develops multiple secondary branches surrounding a thick central cola. Plants tend to stretch significantly during flowering, displaying the sativa influence in their phenotype, yet produce dense, hard flowers characteristic of indica genetics. The buds are covered in shiny, aromatic resin trichomes and emit an extremely intense aroma profile.

Growing Information
Boomerang is considered a moderately challenging strain to grow due to its vigorous growth and stretching tendencies. Flowering time ranges from 63-70 days indoors with harvest occurring in mid-October outdoors. The strain adapts well to both SOG (Sea of Green) and SCROG (Screen of Green) cultivation techniques due to its branching structure. Indoor yields can reach up to 500g per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce up to 700g per plant when grown in full soil. Plants require adequate headroom due to significant stretching during flowering (3-4x size increase). The strain responds well to training and pruning techniques. It's suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though growers should be prepared for tall plants and intense aromas requiring proper ventilation and carbon filtration.
