Day Tripper is a modern hybrid-sativa strain derived from the parent Dr. Hoffman. Classified as a contemporary variety, it requires moderate expertise to cultivate effectively and reaches maturity after a 70-day flowering period. Growers can reliably expect a high yield from this strain, which demonstrates versatility by performing well in both indoor and outdoor environments.
The terpene profile of Day Tripper is defined by a primary dominance of terpinolene, followed by myrcene and caryophyllene. This specific chemical composition influences the sensory experience, providing a distinct aromatic and flavorful nuance that aligns with its hybrid-sativa classification.
As a THC-dominant cultivar containing approximately 20 percent THC and 0.02 percent CBD, Day Tripper is characterized by its ability to induce creative, uplifted, and happy effects. These qualities make the strain particularly well-suited for activities requiring creativity, social engagement, or sustained focus. Currently, there are no recorded notable offspring for this strain, as it remains a standalone presence within its genetic lineage.

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.
PMC11060501: opioid-independent antinociception; appetite suppression (anorectic); NF-κB dual-pathway synergy with caryophyllene.
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.
◈
creative
morningAssociated with terpinolene/limonene profiles; dopaminergic and serotonergic modulation via limonene 5-HT1A supports divergent thinking.
△
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
