Critical Yumbolt
Critical Yumbolt
Also known as: Critical Yumboldt
Overview
Critical Yumbolt is an indica-dominant hybrid strain created by Spanish seed bank Delicious Seeds through crossing Critical Mass and Yumbolt. The strain contains 75% indica and 25% sativa genetics, inheriting the high yields and robust growing characteristics from Critical Mass (a cross of Afghani and Skunk #1) and the intense aromatic profile from Yumbolt, a legendary California strain that won First Prize Winner High Times Cannabis Cup 2001.
Critical Yumbolt is renowned for its tropical fruit aromas reminiscent of papaya, mango and other exotic fruits, combined with metallic, incense-like flavors typical of the best Californian strains. The buds have airy spade-shaped bright neon green nugs with bold minty undertones, vibrant orange hairs and a coating of sparkling minty white crystal trichomes. This strain offers Sativa-looking buds packed with devastating Indica potency, making it popular among both recreational and medical users seeking potent relaxation effects.
The strain is particularly valued for its short flowering cycle but vigorous growth with excellent branching, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Care is needed if growing indoors as it will continue to grow rapidly during the pre-bloom period, while outdoor cultivation can produce large quantities of lateral branches.

Growing Information
Flowering time is 50-55 days (7-8 weeks) indoors with yields of 400g/m² indoors and 450g/plant (200g average) outdoors. Outdoor harvest occurs in middle of September. The strain is well-branched and grows vigorously like a Sativa but with a much shorter flowering cycle. Indoor growers need care as plants continue rapid growth during pre-bloom period. Suitable for both novice and experienced growers, can be cultivated indoors and outdoors. The 25% sativa balance provides enough energy to avoid complete couch lock while maintaining indica growth patterns.
