Snoop Dawg is a modern hybrid-indica strain derived from the genetics of Tres Dawg. As a descendant of this lineage, the cultivar is cultivated with a moderate level of difficulty and performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a high yield from this strain, which typically completes its flowering cycle in 60 days.
The terpene profile of Snoop Dawg is complex, led by a dominant concentration of myrcene, followed by caryophyllene, ocimene, pinene, nerolidol, limonene, humulene, linalool, beta-pinene, bisabolol, guaiol, camphene, eucalyptol, p-cymene, caryophyllene-oxide, and terpinolene. This specific arrangement of terpenes defines the sensory profile of the flower, ensuring a precise aromatic experience consistent with its THC-dominant chemical structure containing 24.8% THC.
Consuming this strain typically results in effects characterized by feelings of relaxation and focus. These properties make it a frequent choice for individuals seeking support with pain, stress, or sleep. The genetic influence of Snoop Dawg is evident in its notable offspring, which include strains such as Donnie Darko and Temple of the Dog.
