Apricot Stomper CBD
Apricot × Stomper
Apricot Stomper (CBD) is an indica-dominant cultivar selected for its high CBD content and minimal THC, offering the stone-fruit characteristics of the Stomper line without significant intoxicating effects. It is bred to provide a clear-headed, calming experience suitable for daytime use.
Appearance
This strain typically produces medium-dense, conical flowers that stack into tidy colas. Buds are often lime to forest green with orange pistils. Under cooler temperatures, faint lavender or rose hues may appear on the sugar leaves. Generous trichome coverage gives the buds a frosted appearance, indicative of good resin production.
Plants generally reach medium height indoors with moderate internodal spacing, making them amenable to training techniques. Leaf morphology is typically hybrid-like, balancing efficient photosynthesis with adequate airflow.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma is prominently stone-fruit forward, often described as ripe apricot and white grape, reminiscent of apricot preserves. Secondary notes include citrus zest, green apple skin, and subtle floral hints. A deeper inhale may reveal a mild peppery warmth and herbal undertones.
On the palate, expect sweet, jammy apricot and candied grape flavors, complemented by citrus highlights. A creamy texture can emerge mid-palate, leading to a lingering, dessert-like finish with a faint peppery note on exhale.
Effects
Apricot Stomper (CBD) is designed for consumers seeking a calmer, less intense experience. Due to its CBD-forward profile, it often attenuates some of the more potent effects associated with high-THC strains. Users may find it provides a sense of calm and improved focus.
This cultivar is considered a clear-headed daytime option, suitable for social or functional contexts where mental clarity is desired. It offers a less racy experience compared to many fruit-forward, high-THC strains.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This CBD-dominant cultivar typically exhibits a high CBD:THC ratio, often ranging from 10:1 to 25:1. Chemotypic analysis often shows elevated levels of myrcene, limonene, and beta-caryophyllene. Minor terpenes may include linalool and ocimene.
The terpene profile contributes to the strain's sweet fruit, citrus, and warm spice notes. While specific percentages vary by batch and breeder, the presence of these compounds is consistent with the cultivar's sensory characteristics.
Origins & Lineage
Apricot Stomper (CBD) is a CBD-rich expression derived from the broader Stomper family, known for its resinous buds and confectionery aromas. It is typically created by crossing an Apricot/Stomper parent with a high-CBD donor strain, such as Cannatonic or ACDC, or through successive breeding to enhance CBDA production.
The breeding rationale focuses on preserving the signature apricot aroma and dense resin traits of the Stomper lineage while shifting the chemotype towards CBD dominance. This approach aims to produce a flavorful, approachable cultivar with minimal intoxication.
Growing Information
Plants typically reach medium height indoors with moderate stretch after the light cycle flip. They respond well to topping and low-stress training techniques, facilitating even canopy development. Leaf morphology is generally hybrid-like.
The flowering time is not explicitly stated, but the strain is noted for developing medium-dense, conical flowers with generous trichome coverage. It is considered a boutique option that emerged between 2018 and 2022.
