About Mike Tyson
Mike Tyson is an indica-dominant hybrid bred from OG Kush x Afghani that produces dense, resinous buds and a strong, sedative effect. It performs well indoors and outdoors with attentive care and rewards growers who manage humidity and train the canopy for even light distribution.
Mike Tyson is an indica-dominant hybrid that leans towards a compact, resinous structure. The plant shows classic indica traits with a calming profile and sturdy branches.
THC levels typically sit in the high teens to low twenties, offering a potent but manageable high for most users. Expect strong psychoactive effects that pair well with measured dosing and experience.
CBD is low in this variety, usually below 1%, so it is not chosen for high-CBD therapeutic needs. The low CBD emphasises the THC-driven effects rather than a balanced cannabinoid profile.
Mike Tyson descends from OG Kush x Afghani, blending classic West Coast terpene profiles with old-school indica robustness. The result is a hardy hybrid with heavy resin production and stable growth traits.
Seeds are supplied as feminised to ensure a high percentage of flowering female plants. Feminised seeds simplify planning for growers wanting predictable canopy composition.
Overall growing difficulty is intermediate, requiring attentive feeding and training to reach full potential in a temperate southern England climate. Short bursts of wet weather and variable light in such regions mean growers should monitor ventilation and mould risk carefully.
Flowering typically completes in 8 to 10 weeks under good light and nutrients. The plant produces dense buds when allowed a full flowering cycle without early stress.
Yields are medium to high for an indica-dominant plant when trained and fed correctly. Indoor growers can expect roughly 450-550 g/m² while outdoor results vary with season and care.
Mike Tyson grows to a moderate height, with a strong central cola and bushy side branches. The compact structure makes it suitable for SCROG or LST techniques.
Indoors in Newcastle the strain responds well to controlled environments and training, producing consistent resinous buds. Outdoors in Newcastle it finishes reliably when given shelter from heavy rain and extra attention during late-season humidity.
Growing Mike Tyson in Newcastle suits its preference for a temperate southern England climate with mild summers and cool autumns. Keep plants protected from prolonged rain and late-season wind to avoid bud rot and ensure a clean finish.
Effects begin with a cerebral uplift that settles into deep physical relaxation over time. The combination is useful for evening use and promotes restful sleep at higher doses.
The flavour profile mixes earthy diesel notes with a bright citrus top note and a pine backbone. Smoke is smooth but leaves a lingering herbal aftertaste.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this strain, covering growth, effects, and suitability for UK conditions.
Use 18/6 during veg and switch to 12/12 for flowering to trigger bud development and maintain plant health.
Improve airflow, keep canopy gaps between colas, and use a dehumidifier or controlled ventilation during humid nights.
A well-aerated loam with added perlite and balanced organic nutrients gives strong root development and steady feeding.
Begin low-stress training early in veg once stems are sturdy, and use topping or SCROG to manage height and increase bud sites.
Feed moderately; Mike Tyson responds to steady nutrients but is sensitive to over-fertilisation, so increase EC gradually.
Yes, with shelter from heavy rain and late-season protection it finishes well outdoors in mild UK summers.
Dry slowly at 45-55% RH, then cure in jars with daily burping for the first two weeks to develop terpene complexity.
You can, but its indica morphology favours SCROG or LST to maximise a few large colas rather than many small ones.
Expect common UK pests like aphids and spider mites; inspect regularly and use integrated pest management to control outbreaks.
Controlled climate cannabis growing lets you manage humidity, temperature and airflow precisely, reducing mould risk and improving bud density and terpene retention.
