Big Buddha Seeds
When Buddha and Godbud mix it up with the Cheese, it seems
only fitting that their progeny would be none other than
Cheesus. This strain was developed by young bloods in the
Amsterdam breeding scene. The Big Buddha Cheese female is
crossed to a male Godbud from British Columbia, courtesy of
the BC Bud Depot. In order to feminize the strain, the resulting
hybrid was crossed with a reversed Cheesus father to render
all seeds feminine.
Cheesus brings indica and sativa together in a hybrid that
blends their qualities peacefully. She grows in a slender indica
profile and quickly forms a structure that is solid enough to
support fat colas. The leaves are a deep healthy green with a
chunky indica shape. Cheesus plants do well in a sea of green
or in systems that maintain multiple branches. Any growing
medium is agreeable, and moderate to heavy feeding is
recommended. From the thick green of this plant emerge
conical buds that are dense, bringing good yields to those who
are attentive, loving, and persistent. Growing Cheesus requires
patience, with a lengthy flowering time of 9–12 weeks, but the
results may turn you into a believer. Actually, Cheesus serves
either the expert or the beginning gardener well, from any
creed to none, breeding enjoyment and respect for the plant.
Few growers have the luxury to garden Cheesus outdoors,
but those who do can expect to harvest around the end of
October. Maximum outdoor sizes average 6–7 feet (2 meters)
and deliver per-plant yields of up to 1000 grams for those who
wait out the long season.
The Cheesus makes elevating head stash. It is good for
everyday use, bringing on a positive and meditative enjoyment.
It may encourage a talkative mood, and is not desirable for
highly focused work. The flavors are deep and dank: imagine a
sweet earthy incense infused with lavender and an edge of tart
honey fruitiness and a little pine and spice. Cheesus has many
disciples but makes no exclusive claims on your devotions. She
doesn’t have to—the connoisseur experience speaks for itself
