Next Level is a modern hybrid-indica whose exact origins are undocumented. While its lineage includes Scotty 2 Hotty, public documentation regarding its breeding history remains incomplete and thin. Because breeders have not officially disclosed the full development trajectory or origins of this strain, the precise genetic foundations of Next Level remain officially unconfirmed.

From a chemical perspective, Next Level features a confirmed terpene profile led by limonene, followed by caryophyllene, myrcene, humulene, pinene, beta-pinene, linalool, and bisabolol. This complex arrangement of secondary metabolites produces a nuanced aromatic experience grounded in these specific compounds. The strain carries an estimated THC content of 24.3 percent, with an estimated CBD content of 0 percent. These figures are based on averaged industry data rather than batch-specific testing, and the reported potency serves as an estimate of the strain’s overall cannabinoid density.

In terms of effects, Next Level is characterized by a relaxed and focused experience. These properties make the strain a common choice for users seeking support with pain, stress, and sleep. The plant is rated at a moderate difficulty for cultivation, performing well in both indoor and outdoor environments. It reaches maturity with a 60-day flowering period and is noted for producing a high yield. As of current records, there are no notable offspring associated with this strain.
