How to Grow Black Domina Weed Strain

Black Domina Strain Description

Black Domina is a heavy-hitting, mostly-Indica hybrid (95% Indica / 5% Sativa) created by crossing Afghan × Northern Lights × Hash Plant × Ortega. With medium THC levels of 15%–20% and almost no CBD (0.02%), it delivers a deep, relaxing body stone coupled with a gentle head high. Plants develop dense, resinous buds with dark green foliage and purple hues under cool conditions, emitting earthy, sweet, and citrusy aromas.

The terpene profile features Alpha-Humulene, Alpha-Phellandrene, Alpha-Pinene, Beta-Caryophyllene, Myrcene, Linalool and more, providing anxiety relief (Caryophyllene), mood uplift (Caryophyllene & Linalool) and sedation (Myrcene & Terpineol). This feminized variety is beginner-friendly, with a flowering time of 8–10 weeks and robust, forgiving genetics.

Mature height can reach up to 9.84 ft (3 m) outdoors, making it suitable for growers with ample vertical space. Indoor gardens yield 1.97–2.29 oz/ft² (600–700 g/m²), while outdoor plants produce 1–3 oz each under optimal conditions.

Growing Environment

Indoors, maintain temperatures between 68–78 °F (20–26 °C) during lights-on, allowing a slight drop at night. Keep RH at 55%–65% during veg, reducing to 40%–50% in flowering to prevent molds and boost resin.

Outdoors, plant in a sunny, semi-sheltered location with rich, well-draining soil. Amend with compost or aged manure before transplanting. Provide air circulation with 3 ft (1 m) spacing and protect from strong winds.

Consistent airflow via oscillating fans indoors or natural breezes outdoors reduces pest pressure and strengthens stems. Monitor microclimates and adjust ventilation or shade cloth to avoid heat or moisture spikes.

Setting Up Your Grow Space

Black Domina Weed Strain Indoor Cultivation

Employ a 4×4 ft or larger grow tent with reflective lining. Install full-spectrum LEDs or HPS lights at 18/6 in veg, switching to 12/12 for bloom. A carbon-filtered exhaust system paired with intake vents keeps air fresh and controls odor.

Use 5–7 gal pots filled with a porous soil mix (pH 6.0–6.5) enriched with perlite. Automate climate temperature, humidity, light cycles using digital controllers and ensure CO₂ levels remain above ambient for peak growth.

Place oscillating fans at canopy level to prevent heat pockets and encourage sturdier stems. Consider adding trellising or netting to support heavy buds as they swell.

Black Domina Weed Strain Outdoor Cultivation

Prepare raised beds or fabric pots with a mix of native soil, compost and perlite (2:1 ratio). Plant after frost when soil is warm. Space plants 3–4 ft apart for airflow and equal sun exposure.

Water deeply, allowing the top inch of soil to dry between waterings. Mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. In rainy climates, use simple rain shelters to protect buds during early flower.

Stake or cage tall plants to prevent wind damage and manage height. Supplement soil fertility mid-season with organic teas compost or worm-cast tea to boost microbial health.

Seed Propagation and Germination

Soak seeds in distilled water for 12 hrs, then place between damp paper towels at 75–80 °F (24–27 °C). After 24–48 hrs, once taproots appear, transfer seed taproot-down ~½ in into starter medium.

Maintain high humidity under a dome and provide 18 hrs of gentle light. Remove the dome incrementally over 3–4 days to acclimate seedlings to ambient RH and airflow.

Label each seedling to track growth and phenotype. Avoid overwatering mist lightly to keep surface moist without waterlogging.

Black Domina Weed Strain Vegetative Phase

Run lights at 18/6. Feed a nitrogen-rich nutrient formula (N-P-K 3-1-2) at half strength weekly. Apply low-stress training (LST) during weeks 2–3 to flatten canopy and reveal bud sites evenly.

Maintain 70–78 °F (21–26 °C) and 55%–65% RH. Introduce beneficial microbes or kelp foliar sprays early to promote robust root and foliage health.

Remove lower shaded leaves to improve airflow and redirect energy to upper colas; monitor pH and EC weekly (pH 6.0–6.5, EC 1.2–1.8 mS/cm) to fine-tune feeding.

Black Domina Weed Strain Flowering Phase

Switch to a 12/12 cycle. Transition to bloom nutrients high in phosphorus and potassium (N-P-K 1-3-2). Lower RH to 40%–50% and maintain 65–75 °F (18–24 °C) to enhance resin and terpene synthesis.

At week 4–5, gently remove large fan leaves (“lollipopping”) that block light. Support heavy colas with plant ties or netting as buds expand during weeks 6–8.

Begin flushing with plain, pH-balanced water in the final week to remove salt buildup, ensuring a smoother, cleaner smoke.

Fertilization and Nutrition

Veg (weeks 1–4): N-P-K 3-1-2. Early bloom (weeks 5–7): 1-3-2. Late bloom (weeks 8–10): 0-3-3. Supplement calcium/magnesium if deficiency signs appear (yellowing/interveinal spots).

Enrich soil with organic amendments worm castings, bone meal, kelp meal to feed soil life and enhance terpene expression. Foliar seaweed sprays early in bloom boost bud set.

Monitor runoff pH/EC; adjust nutrient strength based on plant health reduce if burn appears, increase gradually if growth slows.

Pest & Disease Control

Inspect daily for spider mites, aphids, thrips. At first signs, apply neem oil or insecticidal soap, covering leaf undersides. Use yellow sticky cards to trap adult pests.

Ensure strong airflow to prevent powdery mildew and bud rot. Avoid overhead watering in flowering. Quarantine new plants for ≥7 days to prevent outbreaks.

Maintain cleanliness: remove dead material, sanitize tools, rotate crop locations annually to break pest/disease cycles.

Black Domina Weed Strain Harvesting & Curing

Harvest when 70%–80% of trichomes are cloudy with some amber. Cut branches, trim fan leaves, and hang upside-down in a dark, ventilated room at 60–70 °F (15–21 °C) and 50% RH. Rotate every 2–3 days until stems snap (~7–10 days).

Perform a final manicure remove sugar leaves and jar buds loosely in 75% capacity glass jars. “Burp” jars daily week 1, then weekly for 2–4 weeks. Use humidity packs to maintain 58%–62% RH.

Proper curing unlocks aroma, smooths harshness, and preserves potency. Test small samples after 4 weeks to verify flavor and effect.

Post-Harvest: Drying, Curing & Storage

After curing, store in airtight jars with Boveda-style humidity packs. Keep jars in a cool (60–65 °F), dark spot to protect cannabinoids and terpenes from degradation.

For long-term storage (6–12 months), vacuum-seal in Mylar with desiccants. Label jars with strain and cure date. Check monthly; if RH >65%, burp jars to rebalance.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Nutrient Imbalances: Yellowing leaves = N deficiency; brown tips = nutrient burn. Correct by incremental feed adjustments or flushing, then resume at half strength.

Environmental Stress: Heat stress → leaf curl; light burn → bleached spots. Raise lights, improve ventilation, keep temps <80 °F, RH >40%.

Watering & pH/EC: Overwatering → droop; underwatering → wilt. Water only when top inch of soil is dry. Maintain pH 6.0–6.5, EC 1.2–1.8 mS/cm.
