Passion #1 has a fresh, tart aroma of lemon, lime and spicy notes
The aroma of Passion #1 can best be described as fresh, sour and slightly spicy. The scent is strong, but certainly not super penetrating. This can be useful for outdoor growing if you prefer that neighbors or bystanders not be able to immediately smell the plants. It smells mainly of a fruity mix of lemon, lime and woody herbs like rosemary and thyme.
The taste of this outdoor classic also consists mainly of sour citrus notes, mixed with a little spice and earth. Passion #1 smokes very smoothly and has a strong, potent up-high. The hot, spicy and sour notes are a pleasure to smoke and can sometimes make your throat tingle.
Passion #1 is a robust outdoor strain with a vigorous growth phase and a quick flowering phase
Passion #1 is one of the original, classic outdoor strains. This particularly stable and robust outdoor variety has a very high yield and a short flowering period. Most plants are ready early in September, with some phenotypes taking until early October. The plants grow very quickly. During the growth phase you can already see the true potential of this strain.
Plants over 3m tall are no exception! If pre-growth begins early, plants over 4m tall can be grown. It works well as a backyard plant, but it also thrives in a greenhouse or as a guerrilla plant.
What type of genetics are in Passion #1?
Passion #1 is one of the best green outdoor strains, developed in California in the 1970s and grown in the Netherlands since 1980. Passion #1 (formerly known as Amstel Gold) is the result of years of selection and crossing. This Californian indica grows with long compact buds that are full of resin and very potent.
This strain has been developed exclusively for outdoor or greenhouse cultivation. It is a very strong and stable outdoor strain that has been in our seed collection for decades. This is one of the best green outdoor strains available on the market. This strain guarantees a very high yield combined with high potency. A strain you'll want to grow again and again!
Passion #1 is a strong and robust cannabis plant that is easy to grow and highly resistant to adverse weather conditions
Passion #1 is one of the oldest outdoor strains in our collection. This resistant outdoor cannabis strain was discovered in America in the 1970s and then further developed in the Netherlands. This strain has been selectively bred for many years, primarily for speed, size, yield and potency. This has made our Passion #1 one of the fastest yet largest outdoor strains on the market.
Passion #1 grows with elongated buds that are full of resin. It is a hybrid cannabis plant with a sativa growth pattern and an indica flowering time. She may show a little more of her indica background in the growth phase than in the flowering phase. Once the plant begins to flower, you will see the more sativa characteristics become more apparent.
It eventually grows into a very tall, slender plant with thin leaves. The branches become quite thick, as do the flowers of this variety. With enough soil and sunlight, it grows into a plant of epic proportions. Passion #1 was developed purely for outdoor and greenhouse cultivation. This is not a strain to grow indoors under strong lighting.
At the end of the flowering phase, the plant is full of trichomes. Even the smallest leaves already have a good layer of resin. Passion #1 begins to bloom in the Dutch latitudes in the last week of July/beginning of August. It is a very robust and resilient variety.
Because of the thin leaves and open structure, fungi and bud rot are less likely to affect this cannabis strain. The buds become firm, but not very compact, they remain a little softer and more open in structure.
Its long buds can easily reach 40-50 cm. These long, continuous flowers should be supported at the end of the flowering phase as they can sometimes sag completely due to the weight of the buds.
The genetics with which Passion #1 was bred guarantee the following characteristics:
- A strong hybrid outdoor strain with very high yields
- Potent buds with a thick layer of resin and high THC content
- These plants are vigorous and grow very quickly, reaching an average height of 2-3.5 m
Passion #1 is a very stable and long-lasting outdoor strain, it can withstand bad weather reasonably well, making it very suitable for growing in a temperate climate.
Effects of Passion #1
Passion #1 surprises you with a strong, stimulating 'up' high. If you smoke more, you'll get pleasantly stoned. We measured a THC level of almost 20% in Passion #1. This makes Passion #1 one of the strongest outdoor strains available. She has a hybrid high that has both physical and mental effects. The high is strong and long lasting. She mainly has an energetic, social up-high.
The physical effects are very subtle, they make you relax without really getting tired or sleepy. This combination of a "head high" and a "body high" make this strain very popular with a large group of regular customers. In addition to the strong high, this strain also has an excellent taste!
The heyday of the Passion #1
This strain has an average flowering time of around 6-8 weeks. The fastest phenotypes are ready from early September (in the Northern Hemisphere). The slightly longer flowering plants usually need until the end of September/beginning of October to fully mature.
The plants reach an average height of 2-3.5 m outdoors when grown in good soil. To get the largest plants possible, we recommend starting indoor germination and vegetative growth of the plants early.
Passion #1 was specifically developed as an outdoor/greenhouse strain, this strain is therefore not suitable for indoor cultivation under strong lighting. It is known for its strong vigor. This strain can grow quickly in both the growth and flowering phases.
It does very well as an outdoor variety, but can also be grown in pots. We recommend that you choose very large pots, at least 50-100 liters. If you want the very best result, we recommend using a fancy pot of a few hundred liters in size.
The Proceeds of Passion #1
Passion #1 begins to bloom early in the season. The average dry yield varies from 250g to around 750g per plant. Under optimal conditions, plants can grow to gigantic proportions (up to 3.5 - 4 m) and yields can exceed 1.5 kg of dry buds per plant. It grows best in a greenhouse or sunny climate.
If the plant is grown in small pots, the yield will also be slightly lower. But even in small pots, yields of several hundred grams per plant are possible. It is more resistant to bad weather than most traditional cannabis strains.
Rain and cold have less influence on this variety. So if you live in an area with a rainy and cold climate, Passion #1 can surprise you with a very good harvest! Preferably give it a sunny spot in your garden for best results.
Advice from our experts
Passion #1 is a cannabis plant with a strong urge to grow vertically. If you want it to grow wider, we strongly recommend topping and/or fimming the plants several times. Without these growth techniques, this plant has the need to grow ever higher.
This can result in very tall plants of over 4m in the most favorable conditions. Thanks to this growth power and size, it naturally also delivers a very high yield. You can also use the SCROG method e.g. B. use outdoors to limit their height somewhat.
In order to grow the largest plants, we recommend starting the plants early in the house. In the case of the Netherlands it is best to start around March/April. Germinating indoors and growing the plants for at least 4-6 weeks ensures a strong plant that can withstand a lot before being planted outdoors.
If you have a longer period of time, e.g. 8-10 weeks, we recommend repotting the plants several times into a larger pot, this is better for the root system. Don't forget to harden (acclimate) the plants to the outdoor conditions before placing them outdoors permanently.
You can do this by leaving the plants in a pot outside for a few hours a day for about 1-2 weeks. Start with this in the morning and gradually leave the plant outside for longer periods of time.
