Moon Fruit is a modern hybrid strain derived from the parent cultivar Oooze. Developed for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, the strain exhibits a moderate growth difficulty and produces a high yield over a flowering period of approximately 60 days. The genetic consistency of this hybrid has allowed it to serve as a foundational element in further breeding programs, resulting in notable offspring such as Jedi Fruit and MoonRulaz.
The aromatic and flavor profile of Moon Fruit is defined by a complex, diverse terpene expression. It is dominated by limonene, followed by significant concentrations of caryophyllene, linalool, pinene, and beta-pinene. The secondary and tertiary chemical structure further incorporates humulene, bisabolol, myrcene, nerolidol, and valencene. The profile rounds off with trace notes of caryophyllene-oxide, ocimene, camphene, gamma-terpinene, borneol, eucalyptol, and terpinolene, creating a multifaceted sensory experience.
As a THC-dominant cultivar, Moon Fruit is characterized by its ability to induce effects that are consistently described as relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These therapeutic properties make it a targeted selection for individuals seeking relief from stress and pain, as well as those looking to facilitate sleep. Its legacy continues to influence the modern lineage of cannabis genetics through its contributions to regional breeding projects.

| 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.

spicy
●●○○
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
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.
Genetic Profile
Balanced Hybrid
Equal indica and sativa genetics. Balanced body and mind effects.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
