Delivering a significantly Sativa hybrid strain into the hands of smokers, 1024, AKA Ten Twenty Four, is a hybrid cannabis strain that is roughly 70% Sativa and 30% Indica. As a result, the higher mental focus of Sativa strains is clearly present in the effects of 1024. However, the inviting and relaxing effects synonymous with Indica offer a nice rounding of the corners when it comes to the overall high when smoking, vaping, or eating 1024.
Strain: 70% Sativa / 30% Indica
A hybrid that first emerged from the Spanish breeding labs of Medical Seeds Co., 1024 is a strain that both has a strong following and a rather unclear lineage. The strain is unique in that it has been bred to contain uncharacteristically high levels of CBD and THC. As a result, it is highly sought after and its exact parentage is shrouded in mystery. 1024 is often referred to as a medicinal strain to users for this very reason.
THC Content: Average 20% / As high as 25%
CBD Content: 4%
As a strain that retains a THC percentage in the mid-20’s under some lab tests, we would consider this a very strong cannabis strain. The addition of 4% CBD helps to counteract those effects that may impair an individual under normal circumstances. For these reasons and more, the strain is an excellent one to enjoy either as an experienced smoker or one newly introduced to the world of THC.
Don’t expect to be incapacitated by the effects, though you will definitely be feeling it. Whatever your preference, this one joins the list of must-try strains for the adventurous smoker or budding cannaseur.
Fragrance: Spicy, Herbal
As soon as the smell hits you, the unique spice of pepper and herbs arrest your attention. When the buds are broken up and trichomes burst, the aroma becomes even more pronounced. This fragrant introduction to the strain only invites further investigation, where flavors take center stage.
Flavors: Sweet, Fruity, Peppery
1024 is a strain with a reputation for intoxicating flavor. It has justifiably earned that standing with its mouthwatering taste. What comes on as a mixed bouquet of peppery and fruity qualities, expands into a delightful lingering tang. While we don’t know from where those qualities are derived, the geneticists at Medical Seeds Co. are surely doing something right in the lab.
Appearance: Bright, Airy, Crystal-heavy
When it comes to the overall appearance of 1024, the strain produces some very appealing buds. While they are not the biggest you’ll find on a plant, the tapering kolas are abundant and will produce a wealth of buds covered in wiry orange calyxes and a thorough dusting of trichomes.
Most Common Uses: Depression, Anxiety, Chronic Pain
Due to the dual nature of this strain, it is a profoundly versatile one to include as part of a medical or recreational routine.
It’s rather potent, so likely not a good candidate for morning use. However, from mid-day on this will be one strain to consider in helping to alleviate several stresses that the day can present.
Most users will look to this strain for help in stimulating appetite, and combating anxiety, stress, chronic pain, and joint inflammation.
The Sativa dominance of this hybrid makes it a very useful option to help treat mood disorders, help users become more sociable, and experience a bit of an uplift in mood.
Otherwise, users who enjoy 1024 will likely use this strain for its mood-elevating qualities, sparking of creativity, energizing effects, and the mild relaxation its Indica parentage provides.
Side Effects: Dry Mouth, Dry Eyes, Dizziness
As with many Sativa strains in particular, whether smoked, vaped, or eaten, chances are you’re likely going to experience a strong effect in the head. This can be accompanied by a considerable spell of cottonmouth. Dry and itchy eyes are another commonly reported side effect of using 1024.
Growing: primarily outdoor, beginner/intermediate difficulty, 12 weeks to flower 1024 is a Sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain. As a result, it can grow to considerable heights. This makes it a poor candidate for most indoor grows without ample headroom.
It’s a relatively middle-of-the-road strain to grow in terms of difficulty. If you can address its space requirements, it will reward you with considerable yields that are assured by its higher than average resistance to common molds and fungus.
1024 has a longer flowering time when compared to Indica strains. However, the extra month or so on the back end is worth it when you see the size of the yields these up to 2.5-meter tall plants can produce. Well-known strain throughout California and beyond. For this reason, seeds and cuttings are not especially hard to come by.
Plants do well in beds or containers and can produce 1kg or more per plant. Harvest in mid-October for a bud just finishing the curing process just in time for thanksgiving. With patience and care, you’ll have plenty to be thankful for after harvesting a crop of 1024.
While the geneticists at Medical Seeds Co. have kept the genetic lineage of 1024 under wraps, the strain is as popular as ever. That’s for good reason, too.
With a mix of THC and CBD, 1024 addresses recreational uses and medicinal grade effects. this allows a wide audience to utilize this powerful plant to its full potential. At a potency of 25% THC and 4% CBD, this strain is hard-hitting enough to get the nod from veteran smokers, while acolyte and medicinal users who aren’t as accustomed to high-THC strains can still maintain with the addition of a little CBD to take the edge off.
The intoxicating aromas of this strain can fill a room and when the session starts, its perfume is welcome to fill any room. The flavors found in 1024 are just as inviting and are rich and smooth enough to have anyone’s mouth-watering.
The strain can combat many negative stresses and anxieties, which also counteract pain and inflammation. Many users also report that it’s great for appetite stimulation.
When it comes down to the grow, 1024 is not a great candidate for indoors, due to the great heights it requires to achieve its maximum potential yield. That said, give it the room it needs to grow and you’ll benefit considerably from a disease resistant plant that wants nothing more than to shade you with a tower of sticky nugs.
