About Sunshine 4
Sunshine 4 is a reliable hybrid that blends sativa brightness with indica stability. Bred for consistent structure and resin production, it adapts to both tents and sheltered outdoor spots. In wetter UK valleys it rewards careful site choice and organic soil management. Flavours are citrus-forward with pine and an earthy finish, while effects lift mood and ease mild pain without heavy sedation.
Sunshine 4 is a balanced hybrid with a slight sativa lean. It offers energetic mental effects alongside gentle body calm.
THC sits between 18% and 22% in most tests. The potency produces a clear, sustained high without overwhelming sedation.
CBD is low, generally below 1%. This keeps the plant focused on psychoactive effects rather than high-CBD medicinal balance.
Sunshine 4 derives from a cross of Sunshine OG x Northern Light. That combination brings sativa brightness from Sunshine OG and compact, resinous traits from Northern Light.
Seeds are supplied feminised for reliable female-only crops. Photoperiod seeds suit growers who like to control veg and flower phases precisely.
Growing Sunshine 4 in a wet Welsh valley climate is moderately challenging due to persistent humidity and mould risk. It needs good airflow, strict hygiene and careful drainage to stay healthy.
Flowering takes around eight to nine weeks under steady light. Proper room temperature and balanced feeding will ensure resinous buds.
Yields are medium to high when plants receive regular pruning and adequate light. Outdoor crops can be generous in sheltered sites with the right care.
Plants reach a medium height with a dominant central cola and several productive side branches. The structure responds well to topping and light training.
Sunshine 4 adapts well indoors and outdoors but benefits from controlled conditions when possible. In Pembrokeshire it ripens reliably in sheltered gardens and performs predictably in tents.
Growing Sunshine 4 in Pembrokeshire means contending with a wet Welsh valley climate that can extend the season. Choose raised beds, shelter and preventative mould measures to protect outdoor crops.
Effects begin with bright mental clarity and uplift that sharpens focus. A soft physical relaxation follows without heavy sedation.
The flavour profile is citrus-forward with lemon zest and sharp pine notes. A subtle earthy sweetness remains on the finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this strain, covering growth, effects, and suitability for UK conditions.
Yes. It responds well to organic cannabis soil growing using compost, worm castings and compost teas.
Water less frequently but more thoroughly as buds form, allowing the topsoil to dry slightly between doses.
Fungal issues like bud mould and root rot are the main risks in damp climates, along with slugs and occasional aphid pressure.
Yes. Topping and low-stress training improve light distribution and reduce stretch in the flowering phase.
A balanced NPK plan that reduces nitrogen in flowering works well, with calcium and silica to strengthen cell walls.
Harvest when trichomes are mostly cloudy with a few ambers, typically late September to early October in southern UK microclimates.
Yes. With topping and training it fits a small tent and rewards growers with dense central colas.
Dry slowly at 16–20°C and 45–55% RH, then jar and burp daily for the first two weeks to develop flavour and smoothness.
A moderate veg period of 4–6 weeks is sufficient for most growers to produce strong branching without excessive height.
Watch for yellowing that indicates nutrient deficiency and brown spots that may signal fungal or pH problems.
