Bettie Page is one of the most controversial personalities of the conservative 1950s.
She strode with confidence in a time and embraced her sexuality fully in a time that believed women had no place but the kitchen.
Her legendary work as a pinup model eventually ushered in the radical 1960s sexual revolution that bore the equal rights movements of minorities.

Like the 1950s pinup model, it delivers an energizing high that excites the senses moments after the first puff.

Fragrance
Opening a jar of Bettie Page releases the fragrant aroma of fruity berries complemented by subtle hints of pungent blue cheese. Broken apart or combusted, the buds produce an earthy scent.
Flavors
Carrying over to Bettie Page’s flavor are its earthy undertones. It is accentuated by subtle hints of sweetness both from the taste of blue cheese and blueberries. Drawn out, it leaves a refreshing aftertaste of pine.
Adverse Reaction

Ask any enthusiast on why they use Bettie Page and, most likely, they will cite ‘stress relief’ as an answer. This is not uncommon. In fact, according to research, at least a third of American users use marijuana to ease the pressures of society off their back.

Such an answer is also wholly supported by science too. A 2018 study from Washington State University found that a few puffs of any strain calms anxiety, a symptom of both stress and certain mental illnesses like depression.

Growing
Liberty Reach Farms grows all their strains under natural sunlight in their vast expansive land. As such, Bettie Paige has built up resistance against a variety of unpredictable environmental factors like sudden changes in weather, gusts of wind, and pests. It is perfect for outdoor growing and produces vigorously especially when in a place with a semi-humid, Mediterranean climate.
Cultivating Bettie Page indoors is easy too. It is small and fits most growing spaces with very few exceptions for truly limited areas. In such cases, it is best to top the plant early and shorten the vegetative period to keep it from stretching upward.
Because of its branchy yet short stature, Bettie Page reacts well to both the Sea of Green and Screen of Green methods. Both maximize the amount of buds produced per square meter by training the plant and widening the space between each node. Meanwhile, pruning the bushy herb will encourage better light and air circulation.
At the moment, Bettie Page is not available in seed form. Thankfully, acquiring a clone or a cut from a mature plant makes growing still possible.
Flowering Time
Indoors
Typically, it takes Bettie Page around 8 to 9 weeks to blossom with each square meter producing at least 12 to 14 ounces of buds. However, growers may extend the flowering period by a week to increase yields.
Outdoors
Bettie Page flowers in October but rarely ever reaches the last week. Once mature, it produces at least 14 ounces of buds per plant.
