Double Black effects are mostly calming.

Double Black is a modern indica variety derived from the genetic lineage of Black Domina. Known for its accessibility to cultivators, this strain is well-suited for both indoor and outdoor environments and offers a consistent medium yield. Growers can expect a rapid cycle, with the plant reaching maturity after a 50-day flowering period, making it a reliable choice for those seeking a straightforward cultivation experience.

The sensory profile of Double Black is defined by a complex terpene hierarchy, beginning with a dominant presence of myrcene, followed by caryophyllene and linalool. The secondary and tertiary layers of the profile include bisabolol, limonene, camphene, beta-pinene, and humulene. This combination results in a distinct aromatic structure, characterized by the interplay of these specific compounds that contribute to the plant's nuanced olfactory and flavor profile.

As a THC-dominant cultivar, Double Black is primarily utilized by users to facilitate feelings of relaxation, calm, and focus. These effects make it a frequent choice for the management of pain, stress, and sleep-related concerns. Within the broader cannabis landscape, the strain has established its genetic legacy through notable offspring such as Maltezerz, which carries on the foundational traits of its predecessor.
