Montana Silvertip Terpines

The Origin Story (Or How A Grizzly Bear Became Weed)

Born in Montana’s medical days when caregivers wore more flannel than a lumberjack convention, Silvertip was bred to survive 40-degree temperature swings and the existential dread of long winters. Legend says the name comes from either grizzly fur or the ridiculous trichome coverage—honestly, both explanations are equally badass.

First 30 minutes: You’re the most interesting person at the party, solving climate change with a pizza slice in hand.

Nose opens with grape Hi-Chews and lavender soap, then sucker-punches you with pine needles and lemon Pledge.

Growing This Glitter Bomb

She’ll stretch like she’s doing yoga during flower, so SCROG or get ready for ceiling contact.
