Also, it is a fast bloomer when compared to other indica strains, growers can expect a growing period of around 11 weeks.
And as the name indicates, the buds are big. The chunky buds are also very resinous, which makes them difficult to break apart by hand as they are extremely sticky.
Another factor to consider is that the size of the bud will affect drying and curing times.
The aromas for Big Bud are said to be strong earthy tones, with a pitch of fruitiness.
