Manufacturer Information
Genetics & Origin of Freakshow
Freakshow is the result of a personal challenge: the Californian breeder “Shapeshifter” deliberately selected curiosities over a period of years – after 40 years, he commented, normality gets a little monotonous. Humboldt Seed Company first released the seeds in 2019 and affectionately calls the strain “Cannabis Lusus Monstra”. What is meant is a completely new morphology; the manufacturer says you have to have experienced it to believe it. It does not give parent strains, but it does give stabilisation over four backcrosses (Bx4). The genetics consist of 90% Sativa and 10% Indica, and the average THC content is 18%. Humboldt Seed Company does not state a CBD value. The seeds of this product are feminised and photoperiod; the strain is also available as Freakshow Regular.
Who Is Freakshow For?
Freakshow is a strain for the curious. It suits:
- Collectors looking for a visually unusual plant
- Sativa fans who want to combine 90% Sativa with just 65 days of flowering
- Outdoor gardeners who can harvest by mid-October
- Those interested in terpenes who appreciate a profile measured by the manufacturer
- Growers who value yield – the manufacturer calls it a big producer
It is less suitable for anyone who needs yield figures for planning: the manufacturer does not quantify the yield in g/m² or per plant. You can find more American lines under US Genetics.
Growing Freakshow: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
Indoors, Freakshow flowers for 65 days according to Humboldt Seed Company, i.e. a good nine weeks. As a photoperiod strain, it only goes into flower after the switch to 12/12. The manufacturer calls it a big producer but does not quantify the yield in g/m²; it does not give a height either. Despite the unusual shape, the plant needs no special treatment according to its information. The line is stabilised through backcrosses (Bx4). Because information on stretch is missing, it is worth planning enough headroom for the first run and observing the plants closely after the switch. You will find the basics on light, climate and training in the Growpedia.
Outdoor Growing
Outdoors, Humboldt Seed Company gives the harvest as 5 to 15 October. So you need a location where the first half of October is still dry and sunny enough; in damp locations, rain protection or a greenhouse helps. The manufacturer does not state a yield per plant or a height for outdoors. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Terpenes of Freakshow
Humboldt Seed Company describes Freakshow as a terpene-rich plant and supplies measured values in mg/g to go with it. By far the most strongly represented is myrcene at 7.09, followed by α-pinene at 2.74, β-pinene at 0.9 and ocimene at 0.82. Behind them come β-caryophyllene (0.7), α-caryophyllene and limonene (0.58 each), trans-nerolidol (0.45), linalool (0.26), geraniol (0.11) and camphene (0.06). The manufacturer does not put aroma and flavour into words. It briefly classifies the effect as a Sativa effect, in keeping with the Sativa share of 90%; it does not give a more detailed description. The THC content averages 18%. How intense the effect is depends on dose and individual tolerance.
