RS11: Sweet and Sour
RS11 features the taste of sweet berries as well as sour citrus and candy-like notes. The aroma is similar to spicy diesel with a creamy finish that lingers in the air long after you have finished taking your last hit. RS11 earned these profiles from its parent strains, OZK and Pink Guava, both extremely popular in modern commercial cannabis.
This strain’s THC content of up to 33% makes it a powerhouse in the marijuana community. The immediate boost in mental creativity and focus will help users who have issues completing tasks, especially creative tasks. The physical buzz is relaxing and results in couch-lock in higher doses. First bred in Oakland, California, in 2022, the relatively young bud has made an impressive impact on cannabis users worldwide.
Growing Tips for RS11
RS11 plants grow to a medium height indoors and out, reaching as high as 6.5 feet outdoors. The plants grow dense with blue-green nugs and deep purple hues. Covered in frosty white trichomes and bright orange hairs, the plants are utterly beautiful. Known for its resilience toward fluctuating temperatures. Like many cannabis strains, it performs best in a closely-controlled environment, but because it can endure minor dips and spikes concerning heat and moisture, it serves as a practical choice for first-time growers, as this strain is said to be easy to grow. Below, we’ve provided effective ways to simplify and streamline the growing process.
Establish consistent conditions
Daytime temperatures of approximately 68-80 degrees Fahrenheit or approximately 20-27 degrees Celsius are ideal for RS11 plants. Humidity levels should fall between 60-70% during the vegetative stage, and drop to 40-50% during the flowering phase. A reduction in moisture helps eliminate the risk of mold while encouraging a more potent terpene profile.
Recommended Training Techniques
Low-stress Training, Screen of Green (ScrOG), and Topping training techniques are best suited for this particular strain. These techniques require the grower to trim the non-producing parts of the plant while reinforcing the heavier branches and buds with screens or nets so the weight of the buds doesn’t compromise the integrity of the entire plant. Pruning your plants will help control growth and maintain an easy-to-harvest plant when the time is right.
Fine-tune nutrient levels
All cannabis plants benefit from nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK). During vegetative growth, RS11 prefers greater amounts of nitrogen, as it promotes leaf and stem production. However, because nitrogen encourages leaf growth, it’s important to reduce levels during the flowering stage. This will allow your plants to channel their efforts towards resin-rich bud development instead. To lower nitrogen levels, try using a bloom formula or simply dilute your existing feed.
Germinating Your RS11 Seeds
Our straightforward germination guide is an easy-to-understand way for growers of all skill levels to start the growing process. If you have basic items on hand, such as paper towels and water, you can germinate your RS11 seeds like a pro.
Our step-by-step process allows taproots to emerge within 3–7 days, following which your seeds can be transferred to nutrient-rich soil, a hydroponic setup, or another growing medium of your choice. As an added benefit, growers who use our technique can cultivate with confidence, knowing their seeds are fully protected by our germination guarantee.
Yields, Flowering Times, and Harvest
The RS11 strain has a flowering period of approximately 60-70 days, with outdoor harvests typically occurring in late September to early October. Indoor growers will produce up to 650 grams of trichome-rich buds under proper care, while outdoor growers may see yields of up to 600 grams per plant, so long as environmental conditions remain stable.
Dominant Terpenes in RS11
RS11’s sweet berry and sour citrus taste and smooth, creamy aroma are due, in part, to dominant terpenes beta-caryophyllene, linalool, and limonene. Beta-Caryophyllene is known in the cannabis kingdom as being spicy and peppery, and can be found in cinnamon and black pepper naturally. Linalool gives cannabis plants a floral scent similar to lavender. Limonene is commonly found in the rinds of citrus fruits, and when found in cannabis plants, it gives off a fruity scent and flavor.
Dominant Cannabinoids in RS11
RS11’s THC content of up to 33% gives it one of the highest THC percentages in all of cannabis. Its strength is enough to knock even the most seasoned cannabis user on their butts. The effects of this strain pair nicely with each other, offering a balanced experience. Allowing users to focus is one of the main selling points of this bud. It is a solid daytime choice and also works well as an evening or after-dinner treat. The body buzz is deeply relaxing, so it might not be the best choice for wake-and-bake smoking sessions.
Ran into a problem with my delivery and got in touch with support. Issue was resolved the same day without any back and forth. Seeds showed up in perfect condition and germinated without a single failure. The customer care here is genuinely excellent.
I grow specifically to support my creative work and the mental focus and clarity this strain delivers are exactly what I need. The deeply relaxing physical effects round the experience out perfectly. And the grow itself was just as satisfying from seed to harvest.
Flawless germination and plants that are absolutely thriving right now. This seed bank consistently delivers and RS11 is another example of exactly that.
Running RS11 for the second time now and I have made some refinements to my nutrient schedule based on the first run. The improvement in bud development and trichome density has been very noticeable. This strain rewards growers who learn and adjust.
Had a temperature fluctuation mid-grow that would have stressed out a lot of strains. RS11 barely reacted. As someone who is still developing their growing skills that kind of resilience in the genetics is really reassuring. Flowers came through beautifully.
One seed in my pack did not germinate so I contacted the team. They honored the guarantee without hesitation and the replacement was sent out promptly. That seed popped in under 3 days. A company that backs its products like that is one worth sticking with.
Reached out to the support team as a beginner with questions about training techniques for RS11. They took the time to explain topping and low stress training in a way that was easy to follow. The grow went better than I ever expected as a direct result of that conversation.
RS11 has locked in a permanent spot in my grow schedule. Germination is reliable, the plants are beautiful and productive, the yields are generous, and the effects deliver everything they promise. This strain and this company have completely earned my long term loyalty.
Three seeds went in and three produced perfect taproots by day 4. All three are now well into flower and progressing exactly as hoped. Every stage of this grow has gone smoothly. Cannot say enough about the consistency of these seeds.
Not going to write a long one here. Germination was perfect, plants are looking great, and I have already put in my next order before this grow even finishes. That kind of confidence says everything about these genetics.
