International Space Station has balanced effects.

International Space Station is a modern hybrid strain derived from a complex lineage of Star Killer, JoTaKe, Haze, and Tampa Crippie. As a result of this diverse genetic background, the origins of the strain remain undocumented, with no specific breeder or developmental timeline officially recorded. The plant reaches maturity following a 70-day flowering period and is categorized as moderately difficult to cultivate, yet it is capable of producing a high yield in both indoor and outdoor growing environments.

The terpene profile for International Space Station is confirmed to follow a specific hierarchy, with caryophyllene acting as the dominant terpene, followed by limonene, myrcene, terpinolene, linalool, humulene, pinene, bisabolol, beta-pinene, and ocimene. This chemical composition informs the sensory experience of the strain, contributing to a nuanced aroma and flavor profile that reflects this broad array of constituents.

This THC-dominant hybrid is known to produce effects that are primarily relaxed, happy, and uplifted. Consumers often utilize this strain to address concerns regarding stress, physical pain, and sleep difficulties. Despite its distinctive genetic makeup and reported utility, there are no recorded offspring attributed to International Space Station at this time.
