Space Monkey is a modern hybrid cannabis strain derived from the genetics of the Wookie cultivar. As an established entry in contemporary breeding, this strain is recognized by cultivators for its reliable performance in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a high yield from this variety, which reaches maturity after a 63-day flowering period and requires a moderate level of technical skill to manage successfully.
The terpene profile of Space Monkey is anchored by a dominant concentration of caryophyllene, followed by myrcene, linalool, and limonene. The aromatic complexity is further rounded out by humulene, beta-pinene, pinene, and terpinolene, with trace contributions from bisabolol and caryophyllene-oxide. This specific chemical arrangement creates a distinct sensory experience that reflects the influence of these diverse secondary metabolites.
Consumers who utilize Space Monkey most frequently report feelings of being relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make the strain a functional choice for managing stress and physical pain, as well as an option for those seeking assistance with sleep. The influence of this lineage is documented in its genetic legacy, most notably through its offspring, Doublegorilla.
Terpene Profile
Synergies (+) and conflicts (−) are relative to each other within this profile.

●●○○
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: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Russo 2011: local anesthetic equal to procaine; anticonvulsant via glutamate/GABA modulation; reduces morphine tolerance via multisite opioid/GABAergic/cannabinoid action.
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.
