P-51
P-51
Also known as: P51, Tranquilizer Dart, The Tranquilizer, Tranquilizer
Overview
P-51 is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that pays homage to the legendary World War II P-51 Mustang fighter aircraft, though its effects are anything but aggressive. Created by breeder Clint Pipkin in the Pacific Northwest region spanning Humboldt County and Northwestern Washington, this strain represents meticulous craftsmanship in cannabis genetics. The male parent plant was notably flowered on a window sill on the Key Peninsula in Pierce County, and after creating thousands of seeds through crossbreeding, Pipkin narrowed down the selection to the finest phenotype from 70 different variations. This careful selection process resulted in what would become Stash Cannabis' signature strain and earned recognition as DOPE Magazine's 'Strain of the Month' in June 2015. The strain has gained particular notoriety in Washington State retail establishments where it's affectionately known as 'The Tranquilizer Dart' due to its deeply sedating properties. Despite its relaxing indica profile, P-51 offers a complex experience that begins with euphoric cerebral effects before transitioning into profound physical relaxation, making it a favored choice among cannabis enthusiasts seeking both mental clarity and bodily tranquility.

Growing Information
P-51 is considered moderately easy to grow, making it suitable for both novice and experienced cultivators. The strain exhibits typical indica growth characteristics with short, squat plants featuring strong lateral branching and ample leaf coverage. Indoor flowering time ranges from 7-10 weeks (49-70 days), with indoor yields averaging 10-12 ounces per square meter under standard conditions, though experienced growers using Sea of Green methods can achieve higher yields. Outdoor cultivation in the Northern Hemisphere sees harvest readiness from late September to mid-October, with each plant producing at least 12 ounces of buds. The strain thrives in semi-humid, Mediterranean-like climates and demonstrates good resilience to environmental stresses. Plants require regular pruning and trimming for optimal growth distribution. Seeds are not commercially available online, so cultivation typically requires obtaining clones from mature plants.
