Bumblebee
Bumblebee is a modern hybrid strain derived from its parent, Slurricane. This cultivar is categorized as a project of moderate growing difficulty that flourishes in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a high yield from this plant, which reaches maturity after a flowering period of 65 days.
The terpene profile of Bumblebee is complex and layered, led by caryophyllene and supported by limonene, nerolidol, myrcene, humulene, pinene, beta-pinene, linalool, p-cymene, camphene, bisabolol, ocimene, terpinolene, valencene, caryophyllene-oxide, and borneol. This diverse chemical composition defines the plant's sensory profile, resulting in a distinct aromatic experience rooted in this specific hierarchy of sixteen terpenes.
As a THC-dominant hybrid, Bumblebee is known to produce effects that are relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make it a functional choice for those seeking relief from stress, pain, or difficulty sleeping. The strain has also established a notable genetic legacy through its offspring, which include Beeball, Black Beer, Dark Lollipop, Eternal Buzz, and Peach Bee.
