Unknown × Unknown
707 Cherry Bomb is a mostly indica cultivar developed by SoCal Seed Collective, blending classic Southern California genetics with dessert-inspired aromas. Named in homage to Northern California's 707 area code, this strain is recognized for its rich flavor profile and effects conducive to evening relaxation.
Appearance
707 Cherry Bomb typically grows to a medium height, around 80-120 cm indoors when trained. It features tightly spaced nodes, broad dark jade leaves, and develops dense, heavy buds with a high calyx-to-leaf ratio. Resin production is notable, frosting sugar leaves and even extending to fan leaf tips in some phenotypes. Mature pistils often display a deep copper or cherry-bronze hue.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of 707 Cherry Bomb is characterized by a prominent ripe cherry scent, evoking notes of maraschino syrup or cherry cola. Underlying this are subtle spicy and woody undertones, reminiscent of black pepper and sandalwood. Some phenotypes may also present a faint fuel-like or rubbery aroma. Upon consumption, the flavor mirrors the aroma, with a distinct cherry entry, berry sweetness, and a gentle pepper note. The exhale can reveal hints of cocoa, toasted vanilla, or sandalwood.
Effects
As a mostly indica strain, 707 Cherry Bomb is designed to provide relaxing effects, making it suitable for evening use. It is generally described as offering a classic indica body profile, promoting a sense of calm and ease. The experience is often characterized by a potent aroma and flavor, aligning with modern consumer preferences for dessert-like profiles.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
While specific cannabinoid percentages are provided (THC: 19-21%, CBD: < 1%), the source notes suggest potential terpene contributions from Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, Pinene, and Humulene, which contribute to its complex aroma and flavor profile. The strain is known for its terpene-rich nature, with total terpene content sometimes exceeding 2%.
Growing
707 Cherry Bomb is noted for its indica-leaning growth characteristics, including short-to-medium stretch and dense flower development. It responds well to training techniques like topping, which aids in creating a uniform canopy. The compact bud structure necessitates good airflow in high-humidity environments to prevent mold. Growers can expect a robust plant with dense colas, and the buds are often visually appealing with thick trichomes and deep pistil colors.
Origins & Lineage
Developed by SoCal Seed Collective, 707 Cherry Bomb is a mostly indica cultivar. The name '707' pays homage to the Northern California area code known for its cannabis culture, while 'Cherry Bomb' signifies its high-impact cherry aroma. While the breeder has not disclosed exact parentage, the phenotype suggests influences from Afghani/Kush genetics combined with strains known for cherry-heavy aromatics, such as Cherry Pie or Black Cherry Soda. The lineage is considered proprietary, typical for breeders protecting unique selections.
