Unknown
Arc Angel is a mostly indica cannabis cultivar developed by SnowHigh Seeds, a breeder recognized for integrating heirloom and landrace genetics. It is characterized by dense, aromatic flowers and a resin-forward profile, offering a steady, body-centered effect.
Appearance
Arc Angel typically reaches a medium height indoors, finishing between 80-120 cm with compact internodes and sturdy lateral branches. Its leaves are broad and dark green, characteristic of its indica-dominant heritage. Some phenotypes may exhibit purple and maroon hues when exposed to cooler night temperatures late in the flowering cycle. The calyxes form dense, rounded nodes that merge into tapering colas, notable for their significant resinous appearance.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Arc Angel is robust and reminiscent of classic hash, with distinct notes of coniferous pine and sweet wood. Underlying this are layers of warm spice and incense, complemented by earthy and slightly musky base notes. When the flower is handled, the scent develops into cedar, crushed herbs, and a subtle hint of citrus zest.
Effects

Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Arc Angel is characterized by high trichome density and a cannabinoid profile that is THC-forward with minimal CBD content. The terpene composition is primarily anchored by myrcene and caryophyllene, contributing to its spicy and earthy aroma. Additional notes of floral and citrus can also be present, adding complexity to its bouquet.
