Terpenes & Cannabinoids

Origins & Lineage
The name London Truffle suggests a blend of popular dessert strains, potentially linking to lines like London Pound Cake and White Truffle or Trufflez. It is considered a chemotype family with multiple related phenotypes, rather than a single fixed lineage. This variability means sensory profiles can differ between growers and regions.
Cultivation
London Truffle is known for dense, resinous flowers and generally good bag appeal. Phenotype expression can vary significantly based on environmental factors like temperature and nutrient intensity. Cooler late-flower temperatures can enhance visual appeal with deeper colors.
