Original Flo
Original Flo is a modern hybrid strain with an undocumented lineage. Throughout its cultivation history, the plant has established a reputation for reliability in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a moderate level of difficulty when maintaining these plants, which reach maturity after a 60-day flowering period and are noted for producing high yields.
The sensory profile of Original Flo is defined specifically by its terpene composition, which is led by myrcene as the dominant terpene, followed by caryophyllene and limonene. This chemical combination dictates the strain's overall bouquet and flavor profile. These primary, secondary, and tertiary terpenes are central to the experience of the plant, providing a distinct olfactory and gustatory nuance consistent across various phenotypes.
As a THC-dominant variety, Original Flo presents effects that are characterized by sensations of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These attributes make the strain a functional choice for those seeking to address stress, pain, or difficulties with sleep. Beyond its immediate usage, the strain serves as a significant genetic contributor, as evidenced by its notable offspring which include Delta 9, Isis, Jekyll Passion, M-32, and Skunk Haze.
Terpene Profile

| Terpene | Share | Character | Likely role |
|---|---|---|---|
| myrcene | ~60% | earthy | relaxing · solo |
| caryophyllene | ~28% | spicy | relaxing · social |
| limonene | ~12% | citrus | social · creative |

Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.

●●○○
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.
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.
