Appearance

Double Dragon presents dense, layered buds with a rich, dark green coloration that can display deep purple hues under optimal conditions. The buds are heavily coated in trichomes, indicating significant resin production, and often feature bright orange pistils that contrast with the foliage. Its leaves are broad and deeply lobed, characteristic of indica strains, and the plant's appearance can be an indicator of its health and potential potency.

Aroma & Flavor

The aroma of Double Dragon is a complex blend, starting with a prominent earthy base reminiscent of rich soil. This is complemented by strong citrus notes and subtle spicy undertones. Upon closer olfactory examination, a musky quality is also detected, setting it apart from purely fruity or floral strains. The flavor profile mirrors the aroma, opening with a refreshing burst of citrus zest followed by a subtly sweet Kush flavor. A lingering spicy aftertaste is also noted.

Effects

Double Dragon is noted for providing a balanced experience, combining the deep relaxation typical of indica strains with unexpected energetic undertones. Users report a sense of calm and euphoria, often accompanied by increased focus. While primarily indica-dominant, its genetic influences can lead to a motivational burst in certain situations, making it a versatile choice for various user needs.

Terpenes & Cannabinoids

Analysis indicates that Double Dragon possesses significant levels of Myrcene and Limonene, which contribute to its distinct aroma and flavor profiles. Caryophyllene is also present, adding to the spicy notes. While specific cannabinoid percentages beyond the reported 18% THC and less than 1% CBD are not detailed, its genetic makeup suggests a robust cannabinoid profile consistent with indica-dominant hybrids.

Developed by Coalition Seed Co over a decade ago, Double Dragon was bred with the intention of pushing the limits of indica genetics. Its lineage is predominantly indica, with reports suggesting upwards of 70% indica heritage, carefully selected for relaxing and heavy body effects. Modern hybridization techniques were employed, incorporating elements from high-energy strains to introduce a unique motivational aspect.

Cultivation

Growers have reported consistent performance from Double Dragon, with yields typically ranging from 400 to 600 grams per square meter in indoor settings.
