⚡ Green Crack Cannabis Seeds: The Ultimate Daytime Sativa
If you’re ready to buy Green Crack seeds and unleash a bolt of pure, energetic motivation, this is your ticket. A powerhouse sativa-dominant hybrid, this strain is all about sparking a creative buzz and getting things done. She’s a go-to for daytime growers in Australia who need to stay active, focused, and on top of their game. It’s a clean, uplifting high that hits hard and fast.
Quick Stats
Green Crack is a sativa-dominant hybrid (70% Sativa / 30% Indica) with a powerful kick, clocking in at 18–24% THC (CBD: <1%). She flowers in a speedy 7–9 weeks indoors. Outdoors in Australia: North late March – early April • Mid mid-April • South late April – early May. In the humid tropics, late wet season rains can cause bud rot — a simple tarp or greenhouse cover makes all the difference. Matty’s tip: Top her early or you’ll be wrestling a mango tree in your tent.
The Legend
Originally bred from a legendary Skunk #1 parent and perfected over decades, Green Crack was initially known as “Cush.” The name you know today came from none other than Snoop Dogg himself. He was so impressed by her potent, energising effects that he gave her the unforgettable moniker. Once you feel that clean, focused buzz, you’ll know why it fits.
Funny Fact: Snoop’s original name for the strain was a tribute to its energetic nature, not its heritage. Today, many growers still prefer to use the original name, Green Cush, to avoid any controversy.
Flavour & Aroma
- On the nose: A sharp, zesty aroma of tropical mango and tangy citrus, with a funky skunk undertone.
- On the tongue: A bright and fruity flavour explosion, with bold citrus notes and a clean, spicy exhale.
Matty’s Take: “This strain tastes like a tropical fruit punch. The mango and citrus notes are so loud you’ll taste them on your tongue for ages. It’s a proper wake-up call.”
Effects & What to Expect
First wave: An immediate, powerful cerebral rush. Your mind will feel sharp, focused, and creative. It’s like a shot of mental clarity that gets your brain buzzing and ready for action.
Then it settles: A smooth, sustained wave of euphoria and energy that can last for hours. There’s no heavy body high or sluggishness, just a light, active buzz that makes you feel motivated and social. Perfect for ticking off a to-do list, jamming in the shed, or just having a yarn with mates without losing steam.
Matty’s anecdote: “This is the one I grab when the to-do list is a mile long. After a few puffs, I can fly through a whole day of work or get a creative project done without getting distracted.”
How I Grow It (Matty’s Way)
Skill level: Beginner–Intermediate. She’s a vigorous grower and relatively low-maintenance, making her a forgiving choice. She adapts well to both indoor and outdoor setups and is quite resistant to pests and mold.
Training & support: She’s a tall, lanky sativa that loves to stretch. Use **LST** (Low-Stress Training) and **topping** early to manage her height and open up the canopy for better light penetration. This is key for a monster yield.
A Green Crack-specific quirk: She’s got a huge appetite. Don’t be shy with the nutrients—she’ll tell you when she’s had enough. You can push her a little more than most strains and she’ll reward you with explosive growth.
Matty’s Feeding & pH Know-How: “Aim for a pH of 6.0-6.5 in soil. She loves a nutrient-rich feed, especially a balanced mix with plenty of nitrogen in veg. Just watch for nutrient burn—she’ll show you with yellow tips if you go too hard.”
Grow Log: Inside the Tent
Phase/Week | Key Action/Status | Matty’s Tip |
---|---|---|
Veg Week 3 | Topping and starting LST to manage her vertical growth. | She grows fast! Get her under control early or you’ll run out of headroom. |
Flower Week 2 | Stretching hard, but forming bud sites quickly. | She’s a beast. Give her plenty of room and keep the air moving to prevent mold in the future. |
Flower Week 4–5 | She’s devouring feed and packing on weight. | EC can be pushed up safely here. Feed her well, and she’ll thank you with rock-hard buds. |
Flower Week 6 | Buds are dense and sticky, with a strong citrus-skunk funk. | A quality carbon filter is non-negotiable here. That citrus smell is amazing but it’s loud. |
Harvest Week 8 | Trichomes are mostly milky with a few amber. | Flush for a week before the chop. It’ll give you a super clean, zesty finish. |
🚫 Common Pitfalls to Avoid
- Ignoring the Stretch: She’ll double in height in flower. Without proper training, you’ll have a plant that outgrows your tent.
- Underfeeding: She’s a hungry girl. If you’re not feeding her enough, her leaves will show it with pale colour and slow growth.
- Not Drying Properly: Those dense buds can be prone to mold if you don’t have enough airflow during the drying process. Take your time with it.
- Harvesting Too Early: That high can get a little racy if you chop too soon. Wait for those trichomes to turn milky for a clean, productive buzz.
Matty’s Advanced Notes (For the Nerds)
- VPD & RH: 1.0–1.2 kPa in late veg, 1.2–1.5 kPa in flower. Keep RH between 40-50% in flower to avoid moisture build-up in those tight buds.
- PPFD: 700–900 µmol/m²/s in peak bloom. This strain loves light and will reward you with huge colas.
- EC: 1.6–2.0 in flower. She’s a hungry girl, but watch the calcium — Green Crack is notorious for showing Ca deficiencies under LED setups. A cal-mag boost mid-flower keeps her powering on.
- Terpene Profile: The dominant terpenes are **Myrcene**, **Caryophyllene**, and **Pinene**, which combine to give her that distinct citrus-skunk aroma and contribute to the clean, energetic high.
🚫 Mythbusting
Myth: “The name means the high is like the street drug.”
Truth (Matty): “That’s just hype. The name came from Snoop Dogg to describe its powerful, high-energy kick. It’s a clean, cerebral high with no anxious edge.”
Myth: “It’s too racy or intense for a beginner.”
Truth (Matty): “Nah, she’s forgiving as long as you manage the stretch. Even first-timers can pull cracking results.”
Myth: “Green Crack is a pure sativa.”
Truth (Matty): “She’s a hybrid with an Indica parent, so she’s got a little bit of a body buzz on the comedown. She’s not a pure sativa and is a more balanced option than most people think.”
Myth: “Green Crack’s fast finish means it’s weak.”
Truth (Matty): “Absolute rubbish. Her 7–9 week window just means she stacks quick. Don’t confuse speed with softness — the potency’s as sharp as her citrus bite.”

Perfect If You:
- Want a strain that boosts your focus and creativity.
