Kamikaze is a modern hybrid strain with roots that remain somewhat mysterious. While its lineage connects it to its parent, Pestilence, the broader history of the strain is undocumented, and breeders have not publicly confirmed a complete genetic cross. Due to this lack of formal documentation, the specific development path of Kamikaze remains a subject of debate within the community, with no clear consensus on its origin or primary breeding intent.
The chemical profile of Kamikaze is defined by a complex sequence of aromatics. Its dominant terpene is limonene, followed by myrcene, linalool, caryophyllene, beta-pinene, pinene, humulene, and terpinolene. Because these values are estimated based on composite data, the sensory experience likely leans heavily on these citrus and floral notes, supported by deeper earthy and pine-like undertones. The plant produces an estimated 17% THC concentration and an estimated 0.04% CBD content, resulting in a cannabinoid profile that is firmly THC-dominant.
Users typically report feeling relaxed, happy, and uplifted after consumption. These effects make the strain a common choice for those seeking relief from stress, pain, or difficulty with sleep. Kamikaze is a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, thriving in both indoor and outdoor environments. It reaches maturity with a 67-day flowering period and is known to produce a high yield at the time of harvest. There is currently no recorded information regarding notable offspring descending from this hybrid.

| linalool | ~12% | floral | relaxing · solo |
Research notes below describe isolated terpene mechanisms and early findings. They do not guarantee effects from this strain and are not medical advice.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
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
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
happy
anytimeuplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
