Critical 2.0

The 2.0 appended to the name of Critical is indicative of improvements. Critical + itself, the original, is a souped-up Skunk #1. The addition of Big Buds in the mix gave rise to its ability to produce large, dense, heavy flowers. However, it also added one complication - susceptibility to bud rot if the environmental conditions were to stray far too off from optimal range.Hence, the appearance of a Critical + phenotype that displays uncanny moisture resistance, it made sense to backcross it to the original and thereby improve on the genetics.
