Il Diavolo
Il Diavolo is a modern autoflowering variety derived from Lowryder genetics. This strain is designed for growers of all experience levels and thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments. With a short flowering cycle of 60 days, it produces a low yield throughout its development. According to lore, the accessibility of this genetic line helped establish the viability of early autoflowering hybrids in diverse cultivation settings.
The chemical profile of Il Diavolo is defined by a complex arrangement of terpenes, headlined by caryophyllene followed by nerolidol and humulene. The aromatic nuances continue with limonene, myrcene, and linalool, rounding out with trace notes of beta-pinene and pinene. These compounds work in concert to provide a distinct olfactory experience during both the growth cycle and upon consumption, reflecting the influence of its specific genetic lineage.
Il Diavolo is a THC-dominant strain recognized for delivering effects that are relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make it a functional choice for those seeking relief from stress, pain, or difficulties with sleep. The influence of the strain continues to be felt in modern cultivation, serving as a notable parent for a variety of offspring including Critical Neville Haze Auto, La Diva, and Queen Purple Auto.

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.
