Appearance

This cultivar produces dense, compact flowers resembling golf balls or eggs, which stack tightly on sturdy branches. The buds are characterized by a high calyx-to-leaf ratio and a thick, greasy layer of trichomes with cloud-white to amber heads. Coloration typically ranges from deep green to lime green, often accented with orange or copper pistils, and may exhibit subtle purple mottling under cooler conditions.

Aroma & Flavor

The aroma is dominated by a potent, gas-forward profile with distinct sour diesel top notes, layered over a base of sweet dough and faint earthiness. Breaking apart the buds releases sharper citrus zest and peppery notes. Upon consumption, the flavor follows suit, with bright sour and diesel notes on the inhale, transitioning to more pronounced bakery-like sweetness on the exhale.
