Crop Circle
Crop Circle is a modern, auto-flowering cultivar developed from a genetic lineage of Hawaii Sativa, Cream Cheese, and Ruderalis. The specific origins of the breeding project remain undocumented, and there is no confirmed history detailing the timing or the primary breeders responsible for its initial creation. As a modern auto-flowering strain, it is designed for accessibility across various growing environments and offers an easy difficulty level for cultivators.
The cultivar features a complex, confirmed terpene profile led by myrcene, followed by pinene, caryophyllene, limonene, ocimene, beta-pinene, linalool, humulene, terpinolene, nerolidol, guaiol, bisabolol, and camphene. This chemistry contributes to a distinct aromatic and sensory profile, though consumer experiences regarding its nuanced flavors often vary based on these specific compound concentrations. These terpenes collectively define the plant's bouquet, grounding its sensory expression in a balance of earthy, woody, and citrus-leaning notes.
Crop Circle is a THC-dominant strain recognized for providing effects that are relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make it a functional choice for users seeking support with stress, pain, and sleep difficulties. Designed for efficiency, the plant completes its flowering cycle in 55 days, though it produces a low yield regardless of whether it is grown indoors or outdoors. There are no notable offspring recorded for this strain at this time.

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: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Russo 2011: acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (IC50 0.44 mM) counteracting THC-induced short-term memory deficits; most widely encountered terpenoid in nature; anti-inflammatory via PGE-1.

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.
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
Autoflower
Photoperiod-independent. Flowers based on age, not light cycle. Compact and fast.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
