Irish Car Bomb is a modern hybrid cannabis strain resulting from a cross between Raspberry Kush and Guinness. The precise origins of this strain remain undocumented, as there is no provided breeder history to clarify its development or intended cultivation purpose. For those interested in its growth cycle, the strain requires a moderate level of experience to maintain and completes its flowering phase in 63 days. It is a versatile variety suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments, and cultivators can expect a high yield from mature plants.
The chemical complexity of Irish Car Bomb is defined by an extensive list of terpenes, which are led by caryophyllene, followed by myrcene, terpinolene, limonene, humulene, nerolidol, beta-pinene, and linalool, with traces of pinene, ocimene, p-cymene, bisabolol, guaiol, alpha-terpinene, and gamma-terpinene. While these represent confirmed laboratory findings, the sensory experience provided by such a diverse profile is vast. The variety also possesses an estimated THC content of 23.5%, providing a potent baseline for its chemical profile.
Users of Irish Car Bomb frequently report a state of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make it a common choice for those seeking relief from stress and pain, and the strain is often utilized as an aid for sleep. As of this documentation, there are no recorded notable offspring, suggesting its current role in the market remains distinct from later breeding programs.

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.
