The plant's leaves are robust with serrated edges and measure approximately 12 to 16 centimeters in length.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Original Sin is a sophisticated blend of floral, earthy, and citrus notes, often featuring citrus zest intertwined with herbal undertones, and sometimes pine. Upon inhalation, the flavor profile begins with a distinct citrus taste, often compared to lemon and orange zest, followed by spicy and herbal notes that linger on the exhale. Mildly floral and peppery undertones contribute to its complex taste.

Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This strain is known for a significant terpene profile, with notable presence of myrcene and limonene, contributing to its distinct aroma and flavor. Lab analyses suggest moderate to high THC content, typically ranging between 18% and 24%, with CBD levels below 1%. The genetic makeup indicates approximately 65% indica dominance and 35% sativa influence.
Growing
