About Yumboldt
Developed by Sagarmatha Seeds, Yumboldt traces its lineage to landrace genetics brought from Afghanistan to Humboldt County, California, in the 1970s. While the breeders maintain secrecy regarding its specific genetic makeup, the strain gained significant recognition by winning first place in the Indica Seeds category at the 2001 High Times Cannabis Cup.
The flavor profile is characterized by candy-like sweetness, accented by notes of citrus and fresh berries. Its aroma is notably more pungent, featuring a complex base of spice and pine. Users report that the experience typically involves a relaxed, talkative state often accompanied by an increase in appetite, making it a common choice for social settings or evening use.
Plant characteristics
In outdoor environments, Yumboldt plants typically reach a height of approximately five feet, while indoor specimens tend to remain shorter. The plant thrives in high-light conditions. It reaches full maturity within 56 to 63 days when grown indoors, or by late October when cultivated outdoors.
