18 Coffins is a modern hybrid strain developed through the crossbreeding of Northern Lights and The OG #18. Designed for consistent cultivation, this variety reaches maturity after a 63-day flowering period. It is categorized as moderate in terms of grower difficulty and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments, capable of producing high yields. Its genetic influence remains visible in its notable offspring, which include Coffin Candy, Duke’s Crumpets, and Strawberry Zkillato BX1.
The chemical complexity of 18 Coffins is defined by a diverse terpene profile led by caryophyllene and myrcene, followed by caryophyllene-oxide, linalool, and nerolidol. Further aromatic nuance is provided by pinene, beta-pinene, limonene, and camphene, with trace contributions from ocimene, isopulegol, gamma-terpinene, terpinolene, and humulene. This combination results in a distinct sensory experience that reflects the structural makeup of its specific terpene dominance.
As a THC-dominant hybrid, 18 Coffins is frequently utilized to induce feelings of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These effects make the strain a common choice for individuals managing stress, pain, or difficulties with sleep. Beyond its primary application, the strain continues to impact the broader genetic landscape through its documented progeny, maintaining its status as a foundational element in modern breeding programs.

spicy
●●○○
Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.

spicy
●○○○
Oxidized form of beta-caryophyllene. Woody, spicy aroma. The compound drug dogs detect in cannabis. CB2 receptor activity.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
happy
anytimeuplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
