Dark Moon is a modern hybrid strain created through the crossing of Pure Michigan and Ice Cream Cake. The history of this cultivar remains undocumented beyond its parentage, with no specific breeder information or origins officially recorded. This strain is suitable for cultivation in both indoor and outdoor environments, offering a high yield for growers of moderate experience after a flowering period of 63 days.

The terpene profile of Dark Moon is extensive, led by a dominant presence of limonene, followed by caryophyllene, linalool, isopulegol, humulene, beta-pinene, pinene, myrcene, bisabolol, ocimene, camphene, eucalyptol, terpinolene, nerolidol, caryophyllene-oxide, and guaiol. This complex arrangement of compounds likely produces a nuanced aromatic experience, though the specific sensory expression of this combination remains a subject of observation due to the diversity of its confirmed chemical constituents.

As a THC-dominant hybrid, Dark Moon is reported to induce effects that are primarily relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make it a functional choice for users seeking relief from stress and pain, as well as those looking for assistance with sleep. There are currently no recorded offspring for this variety within the broader genetic lineage.
