Copper Chem
Copper Chem
Overview
Copper Chem is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by crossing Chem 4 and Stardawg, bred by Greenpoint Seeds. This strain traces its lineage to America's Chem family, a pillar of modern cannabis breeding famed for fuel-forward aromatics and no-nonsense potency, with the Chemdawg story woven from 1990s lore and Deadhead culture that spawned foundational parent cuts like Chem D and Chem 4. Known for its totally gorgeous appearance, Copper Chem packs a totally lifted high that swings more towards indica heavy effects rather than sativa, even with the sativa dominance.
Copper Chem buds have beautiful elongated Christmas-tree shapes with minty green nugs featuring rich coppery amber undertones, long clear hairs, and a coating of reddish frosty amber crystal trichomes. The name "Copper Chem" reflects both its genetic identity and its visual signature, particularly its distinctive copper-colored pistils. This variety shows good stability, producing uniform plants with nuances in floral structure and aroma. The strain is prized by both recreational users and cultivators for its high yields of top tier cannabis with levels of resin that will make the hash makers smile.

Growing Information
Copper Chem is mostly sativa that can be cultivated indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of 70-77 days (10-11 weeks), growing to medium-tall height and requiring only moderate support. This adaptable strain can be grown indoors or outdoors and thrives in both soil and hydroponic media, producing large yields of premium flowers using synthetic or organic fertilizers. Indoor yields average 21 ounces per square meter while outdoor harvests can reach 24 ounces per plant. The strain is resistant to mold and many types of pests, making it suitable for any grower, though it is susceptible to powdery mildew. Growers can avoid powdery mildew by keeping humidity low, maintaining ambient air temperature around 75°F, and using fans for air circulation. This is described as an easy to grow, large yielding strain that is very rewarding for growers.
