Brains Damage
Also known as: Brain's Damage, Brain Damage
Overview
Brains Damage is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain originally developed by KC Brains Holland, a respected Dutch seed company operating since 1979. The strain is a complex four-way cross created by combining Acapulco Mexican, Hawaiian, Mango 2001, and KC 636 genetics. This sophisticated breeding program was designed to harness the best qualities of classic sativa, indica, and hybrid varieties to create a potent and versatile strain suitable for cultivation in various global climates.
The strain is characterized by its tall, healthy plants with long, narrow, glossy leaves typical of sativa-dominant varieties. Indoor plants typically reach 90-120cm in height, while outdoor specimens can grow up to 2 meters tall. The buds are medium-sized, dense, and feature dark olive green coloration with purple undertones and amber hairs, covered in a thick layer of sticky trichomes that indicate the strain's high potency.
Brains Damage has gained recognition in cannabis circles for its exceptional potency and complex effects profile. The strain produces a distinctive aroma that evolves from fresh, fruity notes with slight hash undertones to a more intense and tempting fragrance as it matures. The flavor profile is equally complex, featuring initial citrusy and spicy notes that transition into earthy, woody undertones with subtle hints of herbal sweetness, creating what connoisseurs describe as a high-quality artisanal blend.

Growing Information
Brains Damage is considered suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it was originally developed for outdoor growing. The strain has a flowering time of 8-10 weeks (56-70 days) and is ready for harvest at the end of September to early October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields range from 400-750g per square meter under optimal conditions with 600W lighting, while outdoor plants can produce 600-900g per plant. The strain is relatively manageable in size despite its sativa dominance and shows good resistance to pests and diseases. It thrives in both warm and cold climates and responds well to various growing methods including soil, hydroponics, supercropping, and SCROG techniques. The strain requires adequate space due to its height potential and benefits from proper nutrient management and organic feeding schedules.
