Appearance

Reflecting its indica-dominant genetics, Exodus presents dense, compact buds rich in resin. The plants typically display a deep forest green coloration, sometimes with purple undertones under specific lighting. A visible, dense trichome coverage signifies high cannabinoid production.

Exodus plants respond well to training techniques, developing laterally expansive structures beneficial for space-optimized growing methods like the Screen of Green (ScrOG).

Aroma & Flavor

Exodus is recognized for a pungent aroma profile dominated by a sour, savory scent reminiscent of traditional Cheese strains, complemented by subtle earthy undertones. Nuances of anise and lemon may also emerge, particularly after curing.

The flavor follows suit, delivering a complex interplay of savory and tangy notes, often described as a pronounced cheese flavor with hints of lemon and anise. This multifaceted taste profile is attributed to its diverse terpene composition.

Effects

Exodus is noted for delivering strong bodily effects, characteristic of its indica-dominant nature. Users have reported cerebral and tingly sensations, alongside an energetic uplift. While generally potent, it does not always lead to overwhelming sedation.

Terpenes & Cannabinoids

Laboratory analyses have identified key terpenes in Exodus, including myrcene, limonene, and caryophyllene. Myrcene is associated with sedative properties, while limonene may offer mood-elevating effects, and caryophyllene potentially provides anti-inflammatory benefits. The strain typically contains THC levels ranging from 18% to 22%, with CBD content generally below 1%.

Growing

Exodus demonstrates consistent performance and responds well to cultivation techniques such as ScrOG. Its robust branching and dense bud structure are advantageous for growers, especially in controlled environments. Factors like light and nutrient availability can influence terpene concentration.

Origins & Lineage

Bred by The Global Seedbank, Exodus originates from innovations within the famous Cheese lineage. It is predominantly indica, with approximately 70-80% indica genetics. Historical records suggest it shares lineage with varieties like Exodus Cheese and Super Cheese, with potential cross-breeding involving genetics from G13 x Hawaiian and Super Lemon Haze.
