Croissant is a modern hybrid strain, though its exact origins remain undocumented. Breeders have not publicly confirmed a comprehensive breeding history, and while it is associated with the genetics of Zoap, the full lineage is officially considered incomplete. Because of this lack of documentation, there is no verified information regarding the specific breeders, geographical roots, or creation timeline of the variety.
The terpene profile of Croissant is characterized by a dominant presence of limonene, followed by caryophyllene, linalool, humulene, beta-pinene, pinene, and myrcene. This complex arrangement of compounds suggests a multifaceted aromatic experience, though exact sensory expressions remain subjective. In terms of potency, the strain carries an estimated THC content of 20.4 percent, with an estimated trace CBD level of 0.06 percent. These cannabinoid figures represent an average of published data rather than a universal constant for every cultivation batch.
Users typically report feeling relaxed, happy, and uplifted after consumption, making the strain a candidate for addressing stress, pain, and sleep difficulties. Designed for both indoor and outdoor environments, the plant exhibits a moderate growth difficulty and requires 65 days to finish its flowering cycle, ultimately producing a high yield for the cultivator. As of the current record, there are no documented offspring resulting from this strain.

| linalool | ~12% | floral | relaxing · solo |
Research notes below describe isolated terpene mechanisms and early findings. They do not guarantee effects from this strain and are not medical advice.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
~28%
spicy
●●○○
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: local anesthetic equal to procaine; anticonvulsant via glutamate/GABA modulation; reduces morphine tolerance via multisite opioid/GABAergic/cannabinoid action.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Croissant indica or sativa?
Croissant is modeled here as a balanced hybrid (equal indica and sativa genetics).
What terpene is dominant in Croissant?
Limonene is shown as the dominant terpene at approximately ~60%. Caryophyllene follows as the secondary terpene.
Is Croissant good for daytime use?
Croissant 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.
