Cherry Chimera

Cherry Chimera is a sativa dominant hybrid (70% sativa/30% indica) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 16-22% on average, with 0.7% CBD. It is sold as regular seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Cherry Chimera high hits fast and heady — a bright, clear-eyed lift that fuels conversation, ideas and forward momentum, with only a light touch of physical relaxation underneath. Underneath the mental charge, a mellow body calm keeps things comfortable, taking the edge off without ever slowing you down. Because of these effects, Cherry Chimera is often chosen for managing mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

On the palate, expect berry up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. Each exhale leaves a berry-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has dense grape-shaped olive green nugs with deep purple undertones, rust-colored hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

For growers, Cherry Chimera offers a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them — expect plants flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks, at home indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Chimera family — see Chimera on Steroids and Chimera x White Larry for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
