Mother Of Dragons effects are mostly calming.
Mother Of Dragons is a modern hybrid strain derived from the genetics of God Bud. Developed for cultivators seeking reliable performance, this strain is well suited for both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers should expect a moderate difficulty level during the cultivation cycle, which culminates in a 65-day flowering period and a notably high yield. Within the broader cannabis community, God Bud—the primary parent of this hybrid—is widely credited with established regional prominence for its robust growth patterns and classic structural traits.
The chemical profile of Mother Of Dragons is defined by a complex, layered terpene structure led by terpinolene, followed closely by myrcene, limonene, and caryophyllene. This dominant botanical complex is further nuanced by the presence of ocimene, beta-pinene, guaiol, pinene, and bisabolol, with trace contributions from alpha-terpinene, gamma-terpinene, caryophyllene-oxide, borneol, sabinene, p-cymene, and camphene. The interplay of these compounds creates a sensory experience that reflects the strain's specific terpene dominance, grounded in its primary terpinolene concentration.
Primarily a THC-dominant cultivar, Mother Of Dragons is associated with effects described as relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make the hybrid a frequent selection for users seeking relief from stress and pain, as well as those looking for assistance with sleep. The influence of its genetics extends to its progeny, as Mother Of Dragons is recognized for its role in the development of its notable offspring, Fire Opal.

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: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
Primary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
Limonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
Equal indica and sativa genetics. Balanced body and mind effects.
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.

Seeds availableMother Of Dragons is modeled here as a balanced hybrid (equal indica and sativa genetics).
Myrcene is shown as the dominant terpene at approximately ~60%. Caryophyllene follows as the secondary terpene.
Mother Of Dragons is versatile and works across different times of day depending on dose and individual response.
