These figures are ranges, not promises. Flowering time, harvest date and yield vary depending on growing conditions: the grower, the method and the season's weather. "Mold resistant" means mold tolerant: less prone to mold and slower to be affected. No strain is 100% mold resistant. How we set these numbers →

About Channel +
Genetics & strain profile
Channel + is a well-balanced hybrid, 50% sativa and 50% indica, bred from parent strains selected for strength, yield and a rounded effect, and its claim to fame is speed: it flowers in 45 to 55 days, one of the shortest photoperiod flowering times in our catalogue. Its THC reaches up to 20% and we rate the growing difficulty easy to moderate. Eight reviews average 4.3 out of 5, and many of them come from growers who received it as a free seed. One New Brunswick grower pulled “an easy pound” of frosty buds “the size of a small bottle” from an 8-foot outdoor plant fed only with Pro-Mix; an indoor grower got 418 g from three free seeds; a Quebec grower running it in a sea of green harvested one run at 48 days and the next at about 55. The one one-star review is about germination — two of five seeds — from a grower who started them in October; we guarantee our seeds, so contact us if a pack underperforms.
How Channel + grows
Indoors Channel + gives up to 600 g/m² in 45 to 55 days; the structure is compact and indica-like, with fairly dense flowers and little odour during the grow, which one reviewer singled out. It clones easily, likes warmth and showed no mould in an organic sea-of-green run, so it is a natural choice for perpetual harvests. It is a little leafy, so expect some trimming. Outdoors it is a different plant: given a big hole and full sun it reaches 8 feet, pinched twice, and gives up to 1 kg per plant. It is typically ready around late September, which suits Canada and other northern climates, and the same grower reported it “spider and worm free”. The short flowering time is the reason it carries our September harvest badge — and the reason it is a good choice for a late start or a short northern season.
Taste, aroma and effect
Fresh fruit and earthy herbs, clean and mild rather than loud. The effect is relaxing — a calm, balanced high that one reviewer called “a very good buzz to relax” — with enough of the sativa half to keep it from being a knockout, so it suits the evening and quiet afternoons. At up to 20% THC it is moderate by today’s standards and manageable for newer users. For other strains that finish in September, see Quebec Gold Express and Quebec White; for the fastest option of all, our autoflowers.

I got these seeds as freebies with my order. All 3 seeds germinated and grew indoors. They turned out great and yielded almost a pound (418 g). I will buy them for my next grow. Thanks, QCS

Disappointing to be honest. 2 out of 5 of the seeds managed to germinate. They sent a bunch of extra seeds with the order which I thought was great but they barely germinated either. One of the extra seeds they sent germinated.
And some reviews are saying "first shoot harvested at 45 days", LMAO. Not going to happen. I germinated these seeds on October 9th 2024 and they STILL aren't producing on January 17th 2025.
Buy your seeds elsewhere.

J'ai oublié de mentionner, première pousse récoltée à 48 jours, deuxième pousse à 55 jours environ. Merci QCS

Facile à cloner. Elle aime la chaleur. Pas de moisissures.
Deux pousses en Sea of Green, culture bio (Gaia green + kelp + basalte).
- 1ère, cycle de 12/12, formation compacte plutôt Indica en structure.
Fleurs assez compactes, et peu ou pas d'odeurs intenses lors de la pousse. Assez feuillu, mais pas le pire que j'ai vu.
10 plants / 1pieds de haut, moyenne 1,1oz par plante. Satisfait, et l'odeur est assez sucrée.
Au goût, le Channel+ est sucrée avec une finale très florale, combinée à un peu de pinène qui crée cette touche florale.
- Deuxième pousse, 13/11 en floraison, donc des plantes un peu plus étirées, et des fleurs un peu moins dense.
Toujours 10 plants d'environ 1 pieds d'haut, j'ai eu environ 25g par plantes au final.
Par contre, l'odeur s'est intensifiée à la fin de la grow, avec plus de pinène. Goût plus intense et buzz un peu plus aussi.
Je recommande pour ceux qui veulent essayer des goût différents!
