History and Heritage

Established in 2011 by the visionary Erik Collado, Grow Barato started off as a humble online store and platform, catering to the needs of those who couldn't make it to brick-and-mortar shops for their cultivation essentials.

In 2012, the Grow Barato team decided to open their first physical store in Canals, Valencia, followed by a larger shop in Valencia in 2013. In response to booming online sales and the birth of their new stores, Grow Barato set up a new HQ in Silla, Valencia, in 2014-2015. This move resulted in a major boost in hiring and overall operational power within the company. Fast-forward to 2017 and Grow Barato was already spreading its wings internationally, setting up shop in Latin America. For its 10th anniversary in 2021, the company rebranded as GB The Green Brand. Today, it boasts over 45 franchise stores in multiple countries and continues to expand in Spain and Latin America.

Today, the company has grown immensely, with multiple outlets popping up not just in Spain but also remote locations like Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Bulgaria. Their catalog has also evolved, now including a vast array of products for cannabis growing, including gardening tools, grow tents, hydroponic and aeroponic systems, lighting solutions, seeds, fertilizers, and much more.

Key Benefits of The Green Brand

Grow Barato offers a selection of seeds that make them stand out from their competitors, including feminized, autoflowering, and regular varieties, to cater to every grower's needs. The Green Brand works hand in hand with top breeders to create new strains and enhance cultivation techniques, ensuring top-notch products for both personal and commercial use. In addition to cannabis seeds, they also offer all the necessary supplies for indoor and outdoor growing.

Top Strains from The Green Brand

With a wide selection of Indica- and Sativa-dominant hybrids that grow amazingly both indoors and out, The Green Brand's selection ensures that every grower can find the perfect match for their garden. Here are some of the standout strains that have gained popularity for their outstanding characteristics and robust growth profiles.

This strain packs a punch with high THC levels, so go easy unless you want to be out for the count. It’s all about that sweet, fruity flavor with earthy vibes thanks to this variety’s ancestors. Expect a burst of mental clarity and a nice, heavy-body feeling. Whether you’re growing inside or out, Dos y Glue delivers big yields. It grows up to 2.2m outside and stays within 1.3m indoors, ready to harvest in 9-10 weeks or by October outdoors.

Apple Fritter

Apple Fritter is an Indica-dominant hybrid with a sweet aroma of apple and pear, plus hints of caramel, earth, and spice. Created by crossing Sour Apple Killer and Animal Cookies BX2, this strain is great for easing stress and insomnia. However, with THC levels often exceeding 30%, it also packs a potent punch, so handle it with care. Indoors and under good lighting, the plant can yield up to 450g/m² and flowers in about 8-9 weeks. Growing Apple Fritter outdoors is a breeze, and with minimal care, you can get over 650g per plant, ready to harvest by mid-September.

Unicorn Poop

Unicorn Poop is a strain bred from Sophisticated Lady and GMO Cookies. This 80% Indica hybrid boasts high THC levels, providing deeply relaxing and mildly lucid effects. This strain is known for its impressive citrus aroma thanks to its high limonene content, mixed with floral, sweet fruity, and earthy notes, a hint of coffee, and a unique diesel undertone. In terms of yields, Unicorn Poop doesn't disappoint – with proper care, it can produce up to 1kg/plant outdoors by mid-October. Indoors, it yields around 450g/m² after 8-9 weeks in the budding mode.

It provides an energetic high, perfect for daytime use, boosts creativity, and relieves lack of appetite, hypertension, or stress. In terms of yields, this strain produces over 450g/m² after about 70 days of flowering, depending on the phenotype. Its pungent aroma might need carbon filters to keep it discreet.
