Sweet Dreams
Also known as: Sweet Dream
Overview
Sweet Dreams is an indica-dominant hybrid strain that has gained recognition for its deeply relaxing and sleep-inducing properties. The strain's genetics can be traced to crosses involving Big Bud Skunk and KC 606, though multiple breeders have created variations with similar names. KC Brains Holland's version crosses Californian Big Bud Skunk with KC 606, while other versions incorporate different lineages including unknown indica strains. The strain is aptly named for its ability to creep up on users, delivering a slow-onset high that begins with mild euphoria before transitioning into profound physical relaxation and sleepiness. Sweet Dreams features dense, resin-rich buds with a vibrant neon green color occasionally displaying blue or purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures. The buds are characterized by thick trichome coverage that gives them a frosty, crystalline appearance with bright orange pistils. Known as a 'creeper' strain, its effects typically manifest 15 minutes after consumption and can last 1.5 to 2 hours, making it particularly popular among users seeking evening relaxation and sleep aid.

Growing Information
Sweet Dreams is considered a moderate difficulty strain suitable for growers with some experience. It thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments, with indoor cultivation preferred for maximizing yield and potency. The strain has a flowering time of 8-10 weeks (56-70 days) and demonstrates excellent growth characteristics with sturdy stalks and branches that support heavy bud development. Indoor plants typically reach 120cm in height while outdoor plants can grow 2-2.5 meters tall. Yields are impressive, with indoor plants producing approximately 130 grams per plant and outdoor plants capable of yielding up to 900 grams each. The strain prefers optimal temperatures between 70-85°F (21-29°C) and requires frequent pruning to ensure proper light penetration and air circulation. Sweet Dreams shows good resistance to pests and mold but benefits from proper ventilation and humidity control. Harvest typically occurs from late September to mid-October for outdoor cultivation.
