Burma is a modern sativa cultivar with an undocumented lineage. As a result of its unknown parentage, the strain serves as a distinct entry in contemporary garden aesthetics. Cultivators should anticipate a moderate level of difficulty when maintaining this plant, which is best suited for an outdoor environment. With a flowering cycle lasting 70 days, the strain typically produces a medium yield, marking it as a steady selection for those experienced in outdoor cultivation practices.
The chemical profile of Burma is defined by a primary concentration of terpinolene, followed by secondary notes of ocimene and tertiary traces of myrcene. This specific terpene hierarchy informs the strain's sensory expression, providing a complex aromatic experience. Users will encounter a distinct profile characterized by the interplay between these three compounds, which collectively shape the sensory nuance of the flower.
Burma is a THC-dominant cultivar marketed as an effective tool for those seeking creative, energetic, and uplifted effects. These properties make the strain particularly well-suited for social interactions, sustained focus, and creative pursuits. The legacy of Burma is further preserved through its notable offspring, Burma - Sativa, which continues the line’s genetic influence within the modern market.

●○○○
PMC11060501: antinociception via NO/PGE2/TNF-α inhibition; associated with cerebral sativa profiles; least clinically characterised of major terpenes.
Antifungal, antiviral, decongestant; activates CB1/CB2 at 10–60% THC efficacy per Israeli receptor study (NORML 2025); highly volatile (bp 50–66°C); limited clinical data.
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.
energetic
morningAssociated with ocimene/terpinolene profiles; stimulating without sedation; largely emergent from absence of sedating compounds rather than a direct mechanism.
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
Genetic Profile
Pure Sativa
Cerebral, energizing genetics. Tall plants, narrow leaves, longer flowering.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Burma indica or sativa?
Burma is modeled here as a pure sativa (cerebral, energizing genetics).
What terpene is dominant in Burma?
Terpinolene is shown as the dominant terpene at approximately ~60%. Ocimene follows as the secondary terpene.
Is Burma good for daytime use?
Burma is versatile and works across different times of day depending on dose and individual response.
How accurate is this data?
See the "Data confidence" card in the sidebar. Terpene profiles and effects are chemistry-informed estimates — individual responses depend on phenotype, source, and personal chemistry.
