Shikaka

Shikaka is a sativa dominant hybrid (70% sativa/30% indica) strain with a character all of its own. This infamous bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 23-29% on average, with 0.5% CBD. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

Users describe the Shikaka high as an immediate uplifting cerebral rush that sharpens focus and sets off waves of creative energy, keeping you motivated and sociable without weighing down the body. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. Because of these effects, Shikaka is often chosen for managing chronic fatigue and low mood, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

On the palate, expect chocolate and sweet up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. Each exhale leaves a chocolate-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has chunky popcorn-shaped vivid green nugs with warm amber tones, fiery orange hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

For growers, Shikaka offers a demanding plant best left to experienced growers — expect plants flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks, at home indoors or outdoors. Dialed-in climate control and careful pruning are repaid with exceptional bag appeal and top-shelf potency. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed.
