ShockWave

ShockWave is a sativa dominant hybrid (80% sativa/20% indica) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 20-26% on average, with 0.2% CBD. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The ShockWave 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. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. These combined effects make ShockWave a frequent pick among patients dealing with mild to moderate depression and chronic fatigue, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

ShockWave has a delicious coffee and chocolate 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 chocolate finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded forest green nugs with cool blue undertones, thin orange hairs and a thick coat of frosty crystal trichomes.

In the garden, ShockWave is an easy, forgiving grow that suits first-time cultivators, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. It shrugs off common beginner mistakes, and yields stay respectable even when conditions are less than perfect. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed.
