How to grow the Acapulco Gold strain (indoors and outdoors)

Acapulco Gold is among one of the best Sativa strains but will need to be well cared for to achieve her full potential. She prefers to be grown outdoors in a warm (sub)tropical climate, which is not surprising given her origins.

Do you prefer to grow indoors? Then it will be necessary to apply training techniques to curb the height of the plant. Think of Low Stress Training or Scrog.

She features a solid and strong structure and develops red, amber, yellow-colored buds. The THC content of Acapulco Gold is very high. So don't be surprised if you suddenly notice that all the flowers of your plants are covered with white crystals.

By the way, these seeds are female. So you do not have to worry about male plants.

Flowering time

Given the Sativa genetics you would expect a long flowering time. However, this is not the case with the Acapulco Gold. The plant boasts a flowering time of 63-70 days when grown indoors. When grown outdoors in the northern hemisphere, Acapulco Gold can be harvested around mid to late October.

Size of the plant

Acapulco Gold grows up to 120 cm tall when grown under artificial light. Nature-loving cannabis enthusiasts who grow this strain in the wild can see their plants grow up to 200 cm. Pretty big!

Yield

Although it can take a little longer for Acapulco Gold to reach harvest maturity, she produces generous harvests of great quality. The wait is always worth it.

If you know what you're doing, this strain can give you a decent amount of buds. In fact, yields when grown indoors can reach 350-500 g/m². Outdoor yields are usually a little better.
