Terpenes & Cannabinoids

While specific lab data for this cultivar is not always available, its aroma and flavor profile suggest a terpene composition rich in Myrcene, Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, and Humulene.

Origins & Lineage

The exact genetic lineage of Chicken And Waffle is not officially documented, but its profile suggests a cross between dessert-themed genetics, possibly from the cookie or cake families, and a kush-leaning or fuel-forward parent.
