Eclipse
Eclipse is a modern hybrid-sativa cultivar derived from Hindu Kush #12. This specific lineage established the foundation for its genetic development. Cultivators can expect a moderate level of difficulty when managing this strain, which thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments. With an efficient sixty-day flowering cycle, Eclipse is noted for delivering a high yield at the conclusion of the growth period.
The chemical complexity of Eclipse is defined by a distinct terpene hierarchy, led by myrcene, caryophyllene, and limonene. The profile continues with geraniol, humulene, pinene, beta-pinene, linalool, ocimene, nerolidol, terpinolene, camphene, caryophyllene-oxide, and gamma-terpinene. This wide spectrum of compounds informs the strain’s sensory experience, resulting from a balanced interaction between the primary myrcene base and the diverse supporting aromatic notes.
As a THC-dominant variety, Eclipse consistently produces effects characterized by creative stimulation, an uplifted mood, and a state of happiness. These qualities make the strain particularly effective for users seeking to enhance creative pursuits, improve situational focus, or facilitate social engagement. The influence of this strain is evidenced by its status as a contributor within its 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.
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.
happy

Sativa-dominant
Primarily sativa with indica grounding. Uplifting with body relaxation.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
