Frosted Sunsetz
Frosted Sunsetz is a modern hybrid strain born from a crossing of Key Lime Pie and Frosted Onionz. The specific history of its development remains undocumented, as no definitive details regarding its place of origin or primary breeder are currently recorded in the available registry.
The terpene profile of this cultivar is headlined by caryophyllene, followed by myrcene, pinene, limonene, humulene, linalool, beta-pinene, bisabolol, and terpinolene. This complex arrangement of compounds dictates the sensory experience, often producing a profile that reflects the diverse contribution of its parentage. Due to the wide variety of terpenes present, the resulting aroma and flavor are characterized by these specific constituents working in concert.
Frosted Sunsetz expresses a THC-dominant profile and is cultivated over a 63-day flowering period. With a moderate difficulty rating, it performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments and offers a high yield. Consumers report feelings of relaxation, happiness, and an uplifted mood, making the strain a frequent choice for managing stress, pain, and sleep difficulties. There are currently no recorded offspring associated with this variety.

●●○○
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: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Russo 2011: acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (IC50 0.44 mM) counteracting THC-induced short-term memory deficits; most widely encountered terpenoid in nature; anti-inflammatory via PGE-1.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
