Exodus Cheese is a modern hybrid-indica strain derived from Cheese #1 as its sole documented parent. The strain is widely credited to the UK underground scene of the early 2000s, where its distinct genetic lineage first emerged into public prominence. It is a cultivar of moderate growing difficulty that performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a high yield from this plant, which reaches maturity after a 60-day flowering period.
The sensory profile of Exodus Cheese is defined by a complex terpene arrangement, led by caryophyllene, humulene, and myrcene. These primary constituents are further layered with limonene, bisabolol, linalool, nerolidol, beta-pinene, pinene, eucalyptol, and terpinolene. This specific chemical composition produces a recognizable, pungent flavour and aroma profile that distinguishes the variety within the modern cannabis landscape.
As a THC-dominant hybrid-indica, the effects of Exodus Cheese are characterized by a sense of being relaxed, calm, and focused. These properties make it a frequent choice for those managing pain, stress, or a need for improved sleep. The genetic impact of this strain is evident in its diverse offspring, which include Automatic Cheese, Cheese XXL Autoflowering, Exodus Cheese x Clementine, Exodus Cheese x Durban Panama, Exodus Cheese x Jack Herer x NL5 Haze Mist, Exodus Cheese x Swaziland, and Hazeman Skunk.
