Miami Vice
Overview
Miami Vice is a hybrid cannabis strain made from a genetic cross between Green Crush and Grapefruit, representing a balanced 50% sativa and 50% indica composition. Despite its hybrid classification, the exact genetic lineage of the Miami Vice strain remains shrouded in mystery, intriguing enthusiasts and cultivators alike. The strain was developed to evoke the vibrant, energetic spirit of its namesake city, Miami, with effects that reflect the city's lively, sun-soaked ambiance. The appearance of Miami Vice features bright green buds that are medium in size, rounded, and densely packed, adorned with sporadic patches of orange pistils and a moderate layer of sticky opaque trichomes. Miami Vice boasts an exceptionally high THC content, which can reach up to 33% potency, positioning it among the upper echelons of cannabis strains in terms of psychoactive strength.

Growing Information
Miami Vice has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks and offers balanced effects making it versatile for both daytime and evening use. The strain thrives in temperate climates, producing medium-sized, neon green buds with hints of purple and bright orange pistils covered in frosty trichomes. When grown outdoors, Miami Vice reaches heights of 4-6 feet and is ready for harvest between late August and early September, yielding approximately 16-18 ounces per plant. This strain is considered difficult to grow as it requires closely controlled feedings and environmental conditions to reveal its full potential. The strain flourishes under adequate light, warm temperatures, and consistent humidity levels, whether grown indoors or outdoors. Miami Vice uses auto-flowering growing cycles, which means it will have a lower yield compared to other photoperiod strains.
