Pre'98 Sour Sherbet
Pre'98 Sour Sherbet is a modern hybrid strain derived from the genetics of Sour Banana Sherbet. Designed for cultivators of moderate experience, this strain flourishes in both indoor and outdoor environments, offering a high yield with a flowering cycle of 60 days. Its genetic impact is significant within the community, as it serves as a parent to numerous notable offspring, including Desserxx, Docs Choice, Dueling Muskets, Grannies Glock, Ol' Dirty Bubba, Vice 'Verssa, and Vintage Grape Kush.
The aromatic and flavor profile of this strain is defined by a complex chemical composition, led by a dominant presence of myrcene. This is followed sequentially by pinene, caryophyllene, and ocimene, with further nuance provided by beta-pinene, humulene, limonene, linalool, bisabolol, terpinene, camphene, and carene. This specific terpene hierarchy informs the strain's unique sensory character, balance, and volatile profile.
As a THC-dominant cultivar, Pre'98 Sour Sherbet is primarily associated with effects of feeling relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These therapeutic properties make it a frequent selection for users seeking relief from stress and pain, as well as those looking for support with sleep. Its reliable, consistent profile has cemented its role as a foundational genetic influence for the modern breeding projects that constitute its extensive catalog of descendants.

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: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Russo 2011: acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (IC50 0.44 mM) counteracting THC-induced short-term memory deficits; most widely encountered terpenoid in nature; anti-inflammatory via PGE-1.

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.
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
