Chronic gives you impressive harvests of large, resinous buds, is easy to grow and has a sweet, complex flavour. Enjoy a perfect balance of body relaxation and mental stimulation, ideal for unwinding at the end of the day. Discover why it is the favourite of expert growers.
Chronic is one of the most legendary and productive cannabis strains around. Created by Serious Seeds in the mid-90s, this marvel is the result of crossing Northern Lights x (Skunk x Northern Lights) x AK-47. Since its debut it has been an undisputed favourite and has won several awards, including first place in the Hydro category at the 2004 High Life Cup. This genetic combination delivers not only high yields but also exceptional flavour and potency.
Chronic is a sturdy, medium-height plant. Outdoors it grows fast, forming a long main cola and numerous satellite colas with elongated buds that can reach 50 cm in length. The buds are dense and resinous, with a penetrating, sweet aroma reminiscent of citrus such as lemon, orange and mandarin, plus a hint of pepper and wood. They are every grower's dream: as fat as fizzy-drink bottles and as long as your arm.
Worried you don't know how to grow? Don't be: Chronic is easy to handle and resilient, ideal for beginners and experienced growers alike. With our feminised cannabis seeds, all you need is a good substrate, sunshine and a decent range of nutrients to get spectacular harvests.
Looking for a strain with a well-rounded effect? Chronic offers a perfect balance of physical and mental effects. Its potent, balanced high stimulates the mind while relaxing the body, making it ideal for unwinding at the end of the day. Plus, its sweet, intense flavour with citrus hints will make every session a pleasure.
Want a special plant? Chronic stands out not only for its yield and ease of growing, but also for its history and prestige. Many seed banks have used it to develop new hybrids, which says a lot about its quality and reliability.
Chronic is a delight for the senses. Its aroma is sweet and intense, with citrus notes of lemon, orange and mandarin over a base of pepper and wood, a unique and mouth-watering experience for the nose. When smoked, the flavour is just as complex and pleasant, with fresh citrus touches and a spicy note that lingers on the palate.
The effect of Chronic is potent and balanced. With THC between 15% and 20% and low CBD, under 1%, it offers an ideal combination of mental and physical effects. You'll feel a mental lift that boosts mood and creativity, while its physical effect brings a deep body relaxation that sinks you into the sofa. This combination makes Chronic perfect for winding down after a long day, with a clear mind and a calm body.

Chronic is known for its impressive yield, which makes it a favourite with hobby and professional growers alike. It is a very versatile strain that can be grown successfully indoors and outdoors, always with exceptional results.
In an indoor grow, Chronic responds very well to the SOG (Sea of Green) method. From the switch to the flowering photoperiod, it needs 8 to 9 weeks to finish flowering. Under optimal conditions and with a good LED panel, you can expect yields of 550 to 800 grams per square metre. Sharpen your scissors, because you'll be trimming heavy colas for days.
In an outdoor grow, Chronic shows its full potential, especially in temperate, sunny climates. It starts flowering in early August and is ready to harvest between late September and early October. With a height that rarely exceeds 2 metres, it can produce 800 to 1000 grams per plant, an excellent result for its size. Its sturdy structure and fast growth from day one also make it an ideal choice if you want a resilient, easy-to-grow plant.
With Chronic you get not only large, resinous buds but also a plant with exceptional yields that doesn't demand complicated care. Its relatively short flowering period and high yield make it one of the best options for any grower who wants to maximise their harvest in the shortest possible time.
Chronic is an ideal strain for novice and experienced growers alike. It is easy to grow and very resilient, perfect if you want good results without complications.
Difficulty: Chronic stands out for how easy it is to grow. It doesn't need advanced techniques or intensive care, so you'll get abundant harvests with minimal effort.
Climate and growing conditions: this strain thrives in temperate, sunny climates. Outdoors it prefers spots with good sun exposure and a well-fed substrate. Indoors, we recommend a good LED panel and careful control of the environment to keep humidity and temperature at optimal levels.
Resistance to pests and diseases: Chronic is very resistant to common cannabis pests and diseases. Its sturdy structure and vigour make it less prone to problems such as mould and fungi, ensuring a healthy, abundant harvest.
