Head Ringer
Head Ringer is a modern hybrid cannabis strain resulting from a cross between 707 Headband and Big Sur Holy Weed. Information regarding the specific history of the strain’s development remains undocumented, as no official breeder records identify the precise origin or timing of its creation. It is a THC-dominant cultivar that thrives in both indoor and outdoor settings, requiring an average of 63 days to complete its flowering phase. Growers can expect a high yield from this plant, which is classified as having a moderate cultivation difficulty.
The chemical profile of Head Ringer is defined by a diverse array of compounds, and its terpene profile likely follows a hierarchy starting with myrcene and caryophyllene, followed by linalool, limonene, and humulene. The remaining constituents, moving from tertiary to least present, are likely to include camphene, bisabolol, terpinolene, beta-pinene, pinene, caryophyllene-oxide, and nerolidol. This complex composition provides the strain with its specific aromatic and flavor characteristics, grounded in these twelve identified terpenes.
Users typically report feeling relaxed, happy, and uplifted after consumption. These subjective effects make the strain a common choice for those seeking relief from stress and pain, and it is also frequently utilized as an aid for sleep. At this time, there are no notable offspring recorded for Head Ringer in the current genetic catalogue.

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: local anesthetic equal to procaine; anticonvulsant via glutamate/GABA modulation; reduces morphine tolerance via multisite opioid/GABAergic/cannabinoid action.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
