Borrachina
Borrachina
Also known as: Borrachinha
Overview
Borrachina is an autoflowering hybrid cannabis strain developed by Maconha Seeds Bank, a Brazilian seed company known for their distinctive breeding programs. This unique cultivar combines ruderalis and sativa genetics in an innovative cross between Haze, Manga Rosa, and an unknown ruderalis variety. The strain was created in response to growing demand for cannabis varieties that could thrive in diverse climates while maintaining the energizing properties of sativa genetics paired with the hardiness and auto-flowering capabilities of ruderalis. The genetic composition is approximately 60-65% sativa and 35-40% ruderalis, resulting in a strain that breaks conventional cultivation boundaries. Borrachina exhibits distinctive visual characteristics with dense, compact buds featuring deep green coloration interspersed with purple undertones that become more pronounced under cooler conditions. The plant displays generous trichome coverage of 70-80% on the buds, indicating high resin production and potency. The buds are described as long and fat, covered in resin with orange-red hairs, presenting an aesthetically appealing appearance that hints at the strain's potent effects.

Growing Information
Borrachina is an autoflowering strain suitable for indoor, outdoor, and greenhouse cultivation with a moderate difficulty level. The complete lifecycle from seed germination to harvest can be completed in approximately 8-10 weeks under ideal conditions, with a flowering time of around 75 days. Due to its ruderalis genetics, the strain exhibits auto-flowering capabilities and resilience to various environmental conditions. Indoor cultivation requires temperatures of 22-25°C (72-77°F) with 60-70% humidity during early stages, and lighting cycles of 18-24 hours during vegetative phase transitioning to 12/12 during flowering. The strain is adaptable to both indoor and outdoor environments, with outdoor cultivation benefiting from mild climates and temperate conditions. Growers should pay attention to watering schedules as the strain can be sensitive to both under and over-watering, typically requiring water every 2-3 days when the top 2-3 inches of soil dry out. Integrated pest management is recommended due to the compact structure. Expected yield information was not specified in available sources.
