Black Ice is a modern hybrid-indica cultivar derived from the parent strain Oooze. Suited for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, this plant requires moderate experience from the grower to reach its full potential. It maintains a 65-day flowering cycle and is recognized for its ability to produce a high yield. Its genetic influence remains significant in the contemporary market, having served as a parent for a diverse array of offspring including Malibu Cosmic, Time Loop, G-Whiz, Haters Killah, Ice Pie, Matière Grise, Reverse Cowgirl, Scissors Sisters, Stand & Deliver, and Zuma.
The aromatic and flavor profile of Black Ice is defined by a complex chemical composition, led by the dominant presence of caryophyllene followed by myrcene and limonene. The secondary and tertiary layers of the profile are further composed of humulene, bisabolol, linalool, ocimene, beta-pinene, pinene, caryophyllene-oxide, nerolidol, borneol, camphene, valencene, terpinolene, and sabinene. This broad spectrum of terpenes works in concert with the strain's THC-dominant cannabinoid profile, which tests at 22% THC and 0.04% CBD, to create its distinct sensory characteristics.
Consumers of Black Ice generally report experiences centered on feelings of relaxation and focus. These effects make the strain a functional choice for individuals seeking support for managing pain, stress, or difficulties with sleep. By balancing these physical and cerebral states, Black Ice has secured a position in modern genetic lineages, bridging the gap between medicinal utility and a reliable, high-performing harvest for cultivators.

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.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
