Growing Information
 
Melon Madness is a tall-growing, Sativa-leaning hybrid that requires canopy management to control its stretch.
 
Flowering Time: 60–70 days (8.5–10 weeks), ensuring a strong balance of yield and flavour development.
 
Structure: Tall with a significant stretch, requiring topping and low-stress training (LST) to manage height.
 
Resin Production: High-quality sandy trichomes, making it a strong candidate for extractions.
 
Yield: Heavy production, with dense, resinous colas.
 
Due to its stretching tendencies, proper trellising or support is recommended to maintain bud structure and airflow. This strain thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments, but requires space to reach its full potential.
