Shot Adrenaline effects are mostly calming.
Shot Adrenaline is a modern, auto-flowering variety resulting from a genetic cross between Skunk No. 1 and White Dwarf. Suited for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, this strain is recognized by its easy growing difficulty and a flowering period lasting 67 days, which generally results in a low yield. Its genetic lineage has also contributed to the development of its notable offspring, Ultraviolet.
The aromatic and flavor profile of this THC-dominant strain is defined by a complex sequence of terpenes, led by myrcene, caryophyllene, and limonene. The secondary and tertiary notes include pinene, terpinolene, linalool, beta-pinene, humulene, and nerolidol, rounded out by traces of ocimene, bisabolol, guaiol, camphene, caryophyllene-oxide, and p-cymene. This diverse chemical composition creates a distinct sensory experience that reflects the integration of its parent genetics.
Consumers of Shot Adrenaline report feelings of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These effects make the strain a candidate for addressing concerns related to stress, pain, and sleep. As a modern automatic variety, it serves as a functional component in contemporary breeding projects, cementing its place in the lineage of strains like Ultraviolet.
Synergies (+) and conflicts (−) are relative to each other within this profile.
| Terpene | Share | Character | Likely role |

| caryophyllene | ~28% | spicy | relaxing · social |
| limonene | ~12% | citrus | social · creative |
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: 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.
Photoperiod-independent. Flowers based on age, not light cycle. Compact and fast.
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.

Seeds availableShot Adrenaline is modeled here as a autoflower (photoperiod-independent).
Myrcene is shown as the dominant terpene at approximately ~60%. Caryophyllene follows as the secondary terpene.
Shot Adrenaline is versatile and works across different times of day depending on dose and individual response.
