Peanut Butter Breath

Peanut Butter Breath: Nutty and Earthy

Peanut Butter Breath seeds produce gorgeous round, olive-green nuggets that are interwoven with brilliant fiery red-orange pistils. Making this strain’s buds even more eye-catching is their thick frosting of white and purple crystal trichomes. The plants tend to grow tall with long leaves that hang downwards away from the bud sites. The buds stand out against the dark green background of the plant. When harvested, you are left with dense and dank nuggs that are difficult to break up using just your fingers, so have your weed grinders at the ready. The nuggets are mostly green with a flash or two of amber from the pistils we discussed earlier. Peanut Butter Breath is an award-winning variety, taking home third place at the Emerald Cup in 2018 in the Greenhouse category, which is known as the “Mixed Light” category on the award scene. Given this strain’s uber-popular parent strains, it was only a matter of time before PBB took home a major award. Everything about this strain is award-worthy, and we should see more victories on the horizon when referring to Peanut Butter Breath.

Growing Tips for Our Seeds

The Peanut Butter Breath marijuana strain is rated as “moderately difficult” to grow due in part to being quite sensitive to its growing environment. You should only grow Peanut Butter Breath marijuana plants outside if you live in a place where the environment is a consistent Mediterranean-like climate with warm evenings. This 50/50 hybrid will require careful monitoring of humidity levels, which need to be kept low as it’s quite vulnerable to powdery mildew and pests. As such, most cultivators prefer to grow Peanut Butter Breath weed indoors, where they can control the environment and water levels.

Dial in Your Growing Conditions

• Indoor or Outdoor: Peanut Butter Breath marijuana can be grown indoors and outdoors by experienced growers. The desired temperature for this strain is between 65-80 degrees Fahrenheit. In the vegetative stage, you should provide 18-20 hours of light each day. To induce the flowering stage of growth, you will need to alter the light cycle to a 12/12 cycle. This will take you all the way to harvest.
•  Moisture control: Humidity levels of approximately 50-60% during the vegetative phase, gradually decreasing to 40-50% or slightly lower during the flowering stage.
• Training Techniques: Expert growers may want to employ high-stress training techniques, and topping may help to increase the number of bud sites on your plants. Low-stress training may also be employed with this grow as it tends to grow taller and have long bud sites.
