BC Bud Depot
The memorably-named God Bud rose from underground fame
in Canada’s medical pot community to international acclaim
when BC Bud Depot debuted her as a commercial strain in 2004
Her heavy yields and strong effect have made BC God
Bud an indica worthy of praise.
BC God Bud is short, squat and dense, with plenty of silvery
resin. While she does well outside in California, yielding up to 3
pounds (1.3 kg) per plant, she does not finish well as far north
as British Columbia and is better for indoor cultivation in cool
climates. Although BC God Bud can be hard on beginners,
attentive growers will find this to be a hardy, pest resistant
plant with leathery leaves and an appetite for nutrients. These
plants require 8-10 weeks of flowering time to reach maturity.
As the plants ripen, their dark greens turn to shades of purple,
and a heady, almost high-inducing smell begins to fill the grow
room, requiring some odor control precautions.
These plants stay at the shortest end of the growth spectrum,
reaching only 2-3 feet (up to 1 m) in height at harvest, with a
bud production that can maximize smaller spaces. While the BC
God Bud is not a single-cola plant, her side branching is
minimal enough to make it a good sea of green choice. Under
these conditions, she can deliver a whopping 3-4 ounces (85-
115 g) of compact, sparklingly resinous buds per plant.
On the toke, BC God Bud delivers a musky, tropical flavor
with herbal edges and hints of lavender, berry, and pine. The
high is well balanced, a slight creeper with longlasting effects,
starting with a calm, pleasant feeling and increasing to a more
surreal, nearly hallucinogenic buzz. She is good for general
pain relief and makes a pleasant nighttime smoke. Her
innerspace high flourishes in calm environments rather than
loud nightclubs or high-stress social encounters. The peace of
BC God Bud unfolds in the garden or at the drawing table, and
in the quiet hours before bed.
