Death Wish is a modern hybrid strain developed through the crossbreeding of Sensi Star and OG Kush. Designed for cultivators seeking balance, the plant requires a moderate level of expertise to manage, flourishing in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a high yield from this variety, which reaches maturity after a 63-day flowering period.

The chemical profile of Death Wish is defined by a distinct terpene hierarchy, led by the earthy and grounding influence of myrcene. This primary profile is complexly layered with the sharp, spicy notes of caryophyllene, followed by the bright, citrus-forward finish provided by limonene. Together, these compounds shape the sensory experience of the strain, grounding the aroma in musk while providing a nuanced aromatic lift.

Boasting a THC-dominant profile that typically tests at approximately 25.3 percent, Death Wish consistently produces effects characterized as relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These attributes make the strain a functional option for consumers managing stress, physical pain, or difficulty with sleep. At present, there are no notable offspring recorded for this lineage.
