Diamond Head

Diamond Head is a evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 19-25% on average, with 0.6% CBD. It is sold as regular seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Diamond Head high balances both sides of its lineage: a happy head buzz up front, and a soothing physical warmth that follows a few minutes behind. Neither side ever overpowers the other, which is exactly why well-bred hybrids like this one earn permanent shelf space. These combined effects make Diamond Head a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

Diamond Head has a distinctive citrus and lemon flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a lemon finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded vivid green nugs with warm amber tones, curly amber hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

For growers, Diamond Head 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 Diamond family — see Double Diamond and Dresden Green Diamond for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
