Information on Empress #2
Empress #2 is a polyhybrid created from Love Seed 2.21 and The Creature. From Love Seed 2.21 it inherits its earthy and floral indica base with fruity sweetness, while The Creature contributes the gas and funk notes along with very abundant resin. The #2 phenotype was selected precisely for its aromatic intensity, trichome density and potency. It's an indica-leaning hybrid, although its effect is more balanced than that nuance suggests.
Growing Empress #2
Indoors, Empress #2 completes its flowering in around 8 to 9 weeks according to the breeder. It develops medium to tall plants with a branched structure, stretching between 1.8 and 2 times its size during the first weeks of flowering, so it responds very well to techniques like SCROG and LST. Its productivity is medium, more focused on quality and terpenes than quantity.
It should be kept well controlled, as it's a medium-demanding variety, its feeding should be moderate, as it's sensitive to nutrient excess and has little tolerance for over-corrections. In some phenotypes purple tones may appear when temperatures drop. In outdoor cultivation yields are much higher and difficulty is medium.
Aroma, flavor and effect of Empress #2
The aromatic profile of Empress #2 combines ripe tropical fruit over an earthy base, with a spicy diesel touch and citrus nuances that intensify when breaking up the bud. On the palate it displays citrus, sweet and floral flavors, with that earthy and gas background with a slightly spicy finish. Its dominant terpenes (myrcene, caryophyllene and limonene) explain that mix between sweet, spicy and refreshing.
As for the effect, it stands out for being balanced, it starts with a cerebral stimulation that promotes creativity, concentration and mental clarity, then gives way to a smooth body relaxation, without drowsiness or couch-lock. Its comedown is clean and progressive, which makes it suitable both for daytime activities and for creative work, conversation or more prolonged late afternoon sessions.
