Shrieker is a modern hybrid-sativa cultivar derived from The Cube. Developed for those seeking a balance of genetic vigor, this strain represents a specialized selection within the modern breeding landscape. It is cultivated over a 65-day flowering period and is noted for producing a high yield, whether grown in indoor or outdoor environments. While the cultivation process is classified as moderate in difficulty, the strain has achieved recognition for its consistent performance and clear lineage.
The aromatic and flavor profile of Shrieker is defined by a distinct terpene hierarchy, led primarily by terpinolene. This dominant expression is rounded out by the inclusion of myrcene and caryophyllene, which provide the underlying nuance of the experience. The combination of these specific compounds creates a unique sensory report that distinguishes the profile from other hybrid-sativa varieties.
Users report that Shrieker delivers an uplifting and happy experience, frequently utilized to enhance creativity and social interaction. Its THC-dominant profile, with a nominal 0.11 percent CBD content, also makes it a functional choice for tasks requiring heightened focus. At this time, there are no notable offspring recorded for this strain, established firmly as a distinct genetic entity.

Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
creative
morningAssociated with terpinolene/limonene profiles; dopaminergic and serotonergic modulation via limonene 5-HT1A supports divergent thinking.
