Ad Hoc is a modern hybrid-indica strain bred from its sole parent, Joseph. As a variety developed for contemporary cultivation, it consistently reaches maturation within a 60-day flowering period. Growers of moderate experience level can successfully produce a high yield with this strain, as it is well-suited for both indoor and outdoor environments.
The chemical profile of Ad Hoc is defined by a dominant presence of myrcene, followed by caryophyllene and pinene as its secondary and tertiary components. These terpenes work in concert to establish the specific aromatic and flavor profile associated with the cultivar.
Users typically report feeling relaxed, calm, and focused after consumption. Due to these specific effects, Ad Hoc is frequently utilized to address symptoms of pain, stress, and sleep difficulties. The genetic legacy of this strain is evidenced by its notable offspring, Satchmo and Summit.
