Puck HP
Hash Plant
Puck Hp is an indica-dominant cultivar with roots in late 1980s North American breeding, recognized for its compact structure and dense, resin-rich buds. It is often referred to as Puck (HP) or Skelly Hashplant, reflecting its clone-only heritage and association with experienced growers. The strain is highly valued for its substantial trichome coverage, a distinct incense and earthy aroma, and pronounced sedative effects.

Appearance
Puck Hp typically grows into a stout plant with broad leaves and short internodal spacing. Its structure supports dense, rounded buds that often darken with maturity and exhibit a sticky, resinous sheen. The calyx-to-leaf ratio is generally favorable, simplifying the trimming process. Mature colas are notably heavy for their size due to the tightly packed bud structure and abundant trichomes, which are ideal for solventless extraction techniques.Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Puck Hp is characterized by classic hash cave notes, including earthy, woody, and incense-like scents, often accompanied by black pepper and a subtle resinous sweetness. When cured, a leathery undertone reminiscent of cedar and faint tobacco may emerge. Some phenotypes can present a cool, mentholated edge, with hints of citrus or grapefruit. Upon combustion, flavors mirror the aroma, featuring woody spice, pepper, and a creamy resin sweetness, with a dense and slightly oily smoke. Vaporization can reveal pine needle, sweet cedar, and mild floral notes, sometimes followed by a faint bitter chocolate undertone.Effects
Puck Hp is known for its unambiguously sedative body effects, providing a heavy sensation that is deeply relaxing. This indica-leaning strain is often sought for its ability to promote tranquility and calmness. The experience is generally grounded and physically focused, making it a favored choice for unwinding.Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Puck Hp is a THC-dominant strain, with reported levels typically ranging from 18-26%. While specific total terpene content can vary, well-cultivated Hash Plant descendants often fall within the 1.5–3.0% range. Dominant terpenes frequently include Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, Pinene, Humulene, Ocimene, and Eucalyptol, contributing to its complex aroma and flavor profile. CBD content is typically less than 1%.Cultivation
This strain is noted for its indica-like growth characteristics, including short flowering times, often around 49–60 days indoors. Puck Hp plants are typically compact with tight nodal spacing and broad leaves, developing dense, golf-ball-sized buds. Growers should be mindful of airflow due to the bud density and large trichome heads, which can increase the risk of mold in humid environments. Its resin production is a key trait, making it highly regarded for solventless extraction.Origins & Lineage
Puck Hp is a celebrated Hash Plant descendant originating from North American breeding efforts in the late 1980s. Often preserved as a clone-only cut, it is sometimes known as Skelly Hashplant, named after a steward of the strain. Its lineage traces back to Afghan indica landraces selected for resin density and fast maturation. The strain has been influential in breeding, used to enhance resin yields and impart a classic "old-world hash" character to new hybrids.Frequently asked questions
