Downriver #12 is a modern, hybrid-sativa cultivar bred from the crossing of Lavender and White Rhino. This strain is cultivated over a 70-day flowering period and is categorized as having a moderate difficulty level. It is adaptable for growth in both indoor and outdoor environments, consistently producing a high yield for cultivators. The genetic influence of its parents has contributed to its unique profile, eventually leading to its role in the development of its notable offspring, Puddy.

The terpene profile of Downriver #12 is led by a dominant presence of pinene, followed by myrcene as the secondary terpene and limonene as the tertiary component. This chemical composition continues with beta-pinene, nerolidol, linalool, ocimene, humulene, camphene, caryophyllene, caryophyllene-oxide, terpinolene, geraniol, and isopulegol. This complex arrangement of terpenes defines the sensory experience of the strain, grounding its aromatic and flavorful qualities in this specific hierarchy of compounds.

As a THC-dominant hybrid, Downriver #12 is associated with effects that are creative, uplifted, and euphoric. These characteristics make the strain particularly well-suited for activities requiring creativity, increased focus, or social engagement. Beyond its primary use cases, the strain maintains a documented genetic legacy within the industry through its direct contribution to the lineage of subsequent cultivars like Puddy.
