Peaches is a modern hybrid strain derived from Skunk No. 1. Developed to produce a high-yielding crop, it displays moderate growing difficulty and performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments. The plants reach maturity after a 63-day flowering period, contributing to its reputation as a consistent and productive cultivar for cultivators.
The chemical profile of Peaches is defined by a primary concentration of myrcene, followed by secondary caryophyllene and tertiary limonene. This specific terpene arrangement dictates the sensory experience, grounding the profile in earthy notes supported by spicy undertones and a sharp, citrus-forward finish. These aromatic qualities are a direct result of its distinct terpene expression.
As a THC-dominant hybrid, Peaches is primarily utilized to instill feelings of relaxation, happiness, and an uplifted mood. These therapeutic effects make the strain a candidate for addressing stress, pain, and sleep difficulties. Its influence on the cannabis landscape is further cemented by its genetic legacy as the parent of Mango Tango.

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.
