Don Shula Strain

Updated: 21 hours ago

Don Shula is a professional football player and coach who has more games than any other NFL coach in his 33-year track record. He keeps his players in motivated and clearheaded throughout the game. And, for better play, he encourages them to stretch correctly to prevent any problems that may arise. Bleacher report has even alluded that he might be one of the greatest coaches of all time.

Being an inspiration to many football fans, it was only likely that a strain would be named after him. The Indica-leaning Don Shula is one that users could toke in the morning. It refreshes the mind and gets one ready for the day, clearing the head so users can focus on tasks and see things from various perspectives.


The comedown is not at all heavy-hitting too. In fact, one could say that it complements the invigorating rush at the start. Rather than settling into the limbs and making it difficult to move around, it makes the body limber by loosening tightness around the muscles.

It has a distinct smell, one that blends together tropical notes with the stronger sourness of diesel. Most likely, Don Shula got this trait from Diagonal. The East Coast Diesel and True OG cross has a chemical-flavored smoke. Meanwhile, its other parent The White caters to enthusiasts who prefer a more muted profile.

Its compact structure allows growers to cultivate at least four plants in a single square meter. Thus, it grows best in a Sea of Green setup. However, it will need some constant pruning and trimming. As it develops, it becomes bushier and denser which increases its likelihood of accumulating moisture in between its crevices that develop into mold. Another way to remedy this is to install a proficient ventilating system that will reduce humidity levels.


Outdoors, it thrives best when it receives a lot of sunlight. It grows slightly taller and branchier. It could even produce higher yields. With regard its care, there is no need to deviate from the usual growing practices.
