Jackpot
Flashberry started with an exceptional White Berry female that stopped us in our tracks: incredible vigour, massive yields and exceptional resin that sparkled on all buds. We never found another White Berry quite like her. This was the jackpot.
We crossed this one-of-a-kind mother with Mandala #1, bringing our unique landrace Sativa heritage into the mix.
White Berry contributes the fruity Indica side, while Mandala #1 adds euphoric energy and the outdoor resilience we wanted in the finished hybrid. Two very different parents came together in Flashberry, and that extraordinary White Berry mother lives on in every seed.
Frosted Finish
Flashberry doesn't grow flowers you need a magnifying glass to appreciate. The buds become chunky and heavy, with the dense Indica influence of White Berry showing clearly as flowering progresses. Resin spreads generously across the flowers until the mature colas have that frosted finish every grower likes to see.
Outdoors, keep an eye out for the occasional purple beauty. Some plants develop lovely purplish tints as they mature, adding even more character to those chunky, resin-coated flowers.
By the time Flashberry is ready for harvest, she has plenty of bag appeal: fat buds and a lot of resin.

Tough Girl
Flashberry grows with real vigour, moves through flowering at a good pace and can produce big harvests without turning the grow into a technical exercise. Keep a favourite pheno and she'll also make a durable mother plant, pushing out strong cuttings for the next rounds.
But don't assume those chunky flowers make Flashberry an indoor-only Indica hybrid. Mandala #1 gives her an outdoor side with some real backbone. We've seen Flashberry perform exceptionally well in the northeastern United States around 42°N, where summers can be warm and humid and autumn quickly brings cooler nights, rain and the threat of early frost.
In Europe, she is a strong candidate wherever the season reliably carries plants into the beginning of October. Put her in good organic soil, give her a proper summer, and let those genetics get to work.

Aroma & Effects
Flashberry brings fruit to the foreground, with a rich berry character inherited from White Berry and the deeper cannabis notes that give the aroma some weight. It's the kind of bouquet that suits those thick, resinous flowers: fruity, full and unmistakably old-school.
The high lifts into a long-lasting cerebral euphoria while the Indica side gradually spreads a warm, pleasurable relaxation through the body. You get both sides of the cross without one flattening the other.
Enjoy a taste of ambrosia! Flashberry has always been especially appreciated by smokers with a higher tolerance, and the buds can be enjoyed over time without quickly losing their appeal. Fruit, euphoria and a soothing body finish.

Feature title
Flashberry brings together two very different parents, and one of them was a plant we never forgot. While working with White Berry, we discovered an extraordinary female among twenty plants. Her vigour, yield and resin production were exceptional, and we never found another White Berry quite like her. We had hit the jackpot.
That one-of-a-kind mother became the Indica side of Flashberry. We crossed her with Mandala #1, our potent and unique landrace Sativa, creating a hybrid that combines the chunky flowers and fruity character of White Berry with the euphoric high, medical qualities and outdoor resilience of Mandala #1.
Flashberry grows with plenty of vigour and has the strength to turn that growth into substantial yields. The White Berry influence becomes increasingly obvious during flowering as chunky, heavy buds develop and build up a generous coat of resin. Outdoors, some plants develop lovely purplish tints that add even more character as harvest approaches.
Flowering is quite fast, which becomes especially important when you take Flashberry outdoors.
In the United States, Flashberry is recommended for USDA plant hardiness zones 6a–8a. She has performed exceptionally well around 42°N in the northeastern US, with its warm, humid summers and shorter autumn season.
In Europe, Flashberry can be grown throughout regions where the outdoor season reliably allows harvesting by approximately the first week of October.
That northern performance comes in large part from Mandala #1. Its hardy landrace heritage gives Flashberry the resilience to make good use of the outdoor season. Give her quality soil, plenty of sun and a good summer, and these vigorous plants can develop into impressive producers before autumn closes in.
Indoors, Flashberry is equally uncomplicated. Like our other Mandala strains, she has been optimized for organic cultivation and adapts well to different growing methods. The combination of vigorous growth, fast flowering and heavy bud production makes her a rewarding choice for home growers, while the yields also make Flashberry attractive for commercial cultivation.
Flashberry is worth keeping around after you find a plant you particularly like. Selected females make durable mother plants and produce plenty of strong cuttings, so a favourite phenotype can easily stay with you for future grows.
The aroma brings the White Berry heritage straight to the foreground. Fruity and berry notes meet a deeper pungent character, creating a rich profile that becomes especially inviting after a good cure. The fruit has enough depth underneath it to give Flashberry a distinctive old-school character.
The high is where the two sides of the cross come together beautifully. Mandala #1 reinforces the cerebral, euphoric side of the experience, while White Berry brings a pleasurable and soothing relaxation into the body. The effect is long-lasting, with enough mental lift to brighten your state of mind while the physical side gradually releases tension and helps you unwind.
Flashberry also has a broad spectrum of medical uses. Mandala #1 reinforces the medical qualities of the hybrid, while the combination of cerebral uplift and soothing body relaxation can be beneficial for depression, anxiety, tension, migraine and sleep issues. Women have reported that it helps with the hot flashes during menopause (an unexpected pun on the name "Flash"berry). For a good night's sleep, adjust the dosage upwards if necessary, or use a concentrate for a more sedative effect.
Flashberry is suitable for users with high THC-tolerance. The buds can be enjoyed over time without quickly developing a threshold, while the hybrid effect gives the experience plenty of depth and range.

Our organic cannabis seeds are fresh, fully ripened and handcrafted. Each batch is pre-tested for 100% germination and can be easily germinated directly in quality seedling soil.
In Europe, Compo Sana Seedling Mix is an excellent choice. Popular options in North America include Burpee Seed Starting Mix, Pro-Mix Organic Seed Starting Mix and Fox Farm Light Warrior Seed Starter.
Give the seed embryo the best chance to emerge from its shell. If you grow organically, investing in quality seedling soil is one of the simplest ways to get your plants off to a healthy start. We have seen many germination problems caused by peat pellets and Jiffy tabs, where the acidic pH can interfere with germination. Coco coir bricks and other compressed growing blocks can also result in poor germination rates.
There is no need to soak our seeds or use other pre-germination methods. We recommend planting them directly into seedling soil. We cannot accept responsibility for germination results when seeds are soaked in water or germinated in paper tissues.
WARNING: Do NOT lower the pH of your water with acids such as “pH-Down” products containing nitric or phosphoric acid. These can be fatal to young seedlings when growing in soil. We have used inexpensive vinegar to lower the pH of our water for 35 years. It is non-toxic and harmless to the plants when used correctly.
For soil cultivation, the correct water pH is 6.2–6.5. Please consult our Water & pH Guide for more information.
