Clockwork Orange
Clockwork Orange is a modern hybrid strain with an undocumented lineage. Developed for cultivators seeking high yields in both indoor and outdoor environments, the plant maintains a moderate difficulty level and requires a 70-day flowering period to reach maturity. As a modern hybrid, it is not considered a landrace or indigenous variety, instead representing a controlled crossbreeding effort designed for contemporary production standards.
The aromatic profile of Clockwork Orange is defined by a primary presence of myrcene, followed by secondary notes of caryophyllene and a tertiary influence of limonene. This specific terpene arrangement governs the sensory experience, providing a balanced chemical output that transitions from the earthy base of myrcene to the spicy undertones of caryophyllene and the citrus traces of limonene.
Consumers typically report feeling relaxed, happy, and uplifted after use, making this THC-dominant cultivar a frequent selection for managing stress, pain, and sleep difficulties. The strain serves as a foundational component in modern genetic development, acting as a parent for a wide range of documented offspring including Clockwork Kush, Clockwork Orange BX, Clockwork Orange BX1 V2, Green Smack, Hazy Gorilla, Holy Grail Haze, Kids Grail, Orange Heaven Glue, Triangle Haze, Uptown Clockstar, and 2 In The Pink.

●●○○
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: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
happy
anytimeuplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
Genetic Profile
Balanced Hybrid
Equal indica and sativa genetics. Balanced body and mind effects.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
