Do Si Dos CBD
OGKB × Face Off OG
Do Si Dos CBD is a CBD-forward variation of the popular Do-Si-Dos strain, designed to offer a gentler experience while retaining the original's signature dessert-like aroma. This cultivar is sought after for its balanced demeanor and potential therapeutic benefits, providing a calmer alternative for those who appreciate the original's sensory profile.
Appearance and Morphology
Do Si Dos CBD plants are typically compact with dense foliage and closely spaced nodes. The buds often resemble golf balls or eggs, with tightly stacked calyxes that can become top-heavy. Cooler temperatures may encourage the development of pink to purple hues in the sugar leaves and bracts. A notable characteristic is the generous trichome coverage, even on CBD-dominant phenotypes, giving the buds a frosty appearance.
The buds are adorned with orange to copper pistils against a lime-to-olive green background. Resin heads are generally medium-sized, making them suitable for techniques like dry sifting or low-temperature rosin pressing. Indoor cultivation under optimal conditions can yield between 450-650 g per square meter, while outdoor plants may produce 500-900 g each in favorable climates.
Aroma and Flavor Profile
The aroma of Do Si Dos CBD is a complex blend of sweet cookie dough, vanilla, and floral notes, complemented by earthy and peppery undertones. When the buds are freshly broken open, a bright citrus or lemon scent emerges, adding a refreshing quality to the sweet profile. Subtle notes of pine, lavender, and a hint of creaminess can also be detected.
On the palate, the flavor profile often starts sweet and floral, transitioning to a peppery and herbal taste with a clean finish. The terpene caryophyllene contributes a warm, spicy note, while limonene and linalool are responsible for the citrus and lavender characteristics. Some users detect a subtle shortbread or dough-like flavor, particularly in well-cured flower.
Effects
Do Si Dos CBD is recognized for promoting a calm and balanced state. Users often report a clearer headspace compared to its THC-dominant counterpart, making it suitable for sessions where focus and ease are desired. It is frequently used for post-work decompression and for enhancing social comfort.
Terpenes and Cannabinoids
Do Si Dos CBD is characterized by a terpene profile that includes myrcene, limonene, caryophyllene, linalool, humulene, ocimene, and bisabolol. The cannabinoid content can vary, but this version is noted for its approximately 10% THC and less than 1% CBD. However, it's important to consult a Certificate of Analysis as different phenotypes and breeding programs may result in varying ratios, including hemp-compliant versions with very low THC and balanced 1:1 or 2:1 CBD:THC ratios.
Origins and Lineage
Do Si Dos CBD is a derivative of the original Do-Si-Dos strain, which itself was created by crossing OGKB (Ocean Grow Kush Berry) with Face Off OG. The original Do-Si-Dos gained popularity in the mid-to-late 2010s for its potent effects and rich aromatic profile. Breeding programs then developed CBD-forward variants by crossing Do-Si-Dos with high-CBD strains to achieve a more balanced cannabinoid ratio while preserving the distinctive sensory characteristics.
Growing Information
This strain generally exhibits moderate growth vigor and responds well to training techniques such as topping and low-stress training to manage canopy height and light exposure. Indoor yields can range from 450-650 g per square meter, with flowering times typical for indica-dominant varieties. The plants are known for producing dense buds with good resin production.
