Bob 87
Bob 87 is a modern hybrid-sativa strain born from the direct cross of Durban Biscotti and 1987. The specific history of its development remains undocumented in public breeding logs, leaving its precise origin story to be characterized as vague rather than definitive. Designed for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, this strain reaches maturity after a 77-day flowering period and is noted for producing a high yield, though growers should anticipate a moderate level of difficulty when maintaining its health through the full lifecycle.
The aromatic and flavor profile of Bob 87 is defined by a complex, confirmed chemical composition led by caryophyllene, followed by myrcene, humulene, limonene, and pinene. The secondary and tertiary nuances are provided by linalool, beta-pinene, ocimene, bisabolol, nerolidol, and guaiol, with trace amounts of p-cymene, camphene, and caryophyllene-oxide. This diverse terpene arrangement creates a nuanced sensory experience that reflects its intricate hybrid lineage, grounding the smoke in a sharp, spicy foundation softened by floral and citrus undertones.
As a THC-dominant cultivar, Bob 87 is reported to deliver effects that are primarily creative, uplifted, and happy. Users frequently select this strain for tasks requiring heightened creativity, social interaction, or sustained focus. Currently, there are no recorded offspring attributed to this strain, marking it as a stable, standalone representative of its modern genetic architecture.

●●○○
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.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
creative
morningAssociated with terpinolene/limonene profiles; dopaminergic and serotonergic modulation via limonene 5-HT1A supports divergent thinking.
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
happy
anytimeGenetic Profile
Sativa-dominant
Primarily sativa with indica grounding. Uplifting with body relaxation.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
