3rd Coast Panama Chunk

Bedford Grow created 3rd Coast Panama Chunk as a cross between East Coast Panama Chunk and Sour Diesel strains. Users say this strain (cultivar) is a vigorous grower that produces dense, resinous buds with a pungent smell similar to pine and fuel.

This strain is also potent and uplifting, with many users reporting that they opt for 3rd Coast Panama Chunk because it provides excellent stress relief and has varied cerebral and physical effects. Others claim this strain is also suitable for relieving migraine pain, sore muscles, and insomnia.

3rd Coast Panama Chunk is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain with an estimated 70% sativa and 30% indica. But growing this strain from home appears relatively easy, and growers will enjoy seeing the varied colors in the buds.

Dosing

As with all strains new to you, it is a good idea to start with a small dose and work your way up slowly until you achieve the effect you’re looking for.

Many users have reported significant relief from migraine and muscle pain when using this strain. However, it’s important to note that cannabis can cause headaches and may trigger more migraines for some people. Therefore, it’s always best to proceed with caution when using cannabis to treat migraine pain. Start with low doses and gradually increase until you find the right amount that works well for you.

Growing

However, it’s a sativa-dominant plant since it has many characteristics of a sativa, such as pale, thin leaves and a tall height. Therefore, when growing this plant outdoors, growers must ensure that the plant has plenty of sunlight. Otherwise, the bottom leaves could be prone to diseases like mold.

When grown outdoors, growers can expect a yield of 10-15 ounces per plant (280-425 grams). However, when grown indoors, the yield will be slightly lower. When growing this plant indoors, growers can limit the height of this strain by cutting the top of the central stalk. Doing so will prevent the plant from growing too tall. As a result, it will be bushier and produce more flowers.
