About Opium
Opium comes from Paradise Seeds, an Afghan and Hawaiian cross that settles in as a 70% indica-dominant hybrid. It's rated easy to grow, a rarity worth noting, and it moves fast too, finishing flowering in just 7-8 weeks. Indoors it reaches 100-150cm and yields 450-550 grams per square meter, while an outdoor plant can return 500-600 grams each, generous numbers for such a short cycle. THC sits between 17% and 21%, a middle-of-the-road strength that matches the strain's overall easygoing profile. There isn't a long list of flavor or terpene notes attached to this one, but the combination of an old-school Afghan base with tropical Hawaiian genetics, wrapped into a fast, forgiving grow, explains why it has stayed in circulation as a low-fuss option for beginners and busy growers alike.
