Super Silver is a modern hybrid-sativa strain developed from a crossing of Skunk and Northern Lights. According to lore, this genetic lineage is widely credited to the influential period of stabilization and refinement that occurred during the late twentieth century. As a result of this pairing, the plant requires a moderate level of grower expertise, thriving in both indoor and outdoor environments. With a flowering period of 74 days, the cultivar is capable of producing a high yield for cultivators who maintain its specific environmental requirements.
The chemical profile of Super Silver is led by terpinolene, which functions as the primary terpene followed by myrcene and caryophyllene. This specific arrangement of aromatic compounds defines the sensory experience, offering a nuanced fragrance and flavor that reflects the dominance of its leading constituent. With a THC-dominant cannabinoid profile that registers at approximately 9 percent, the strain provides a balanced experience that does not reach the high-potency thresholds seen in many modern varietals.
The effects associated with Super Silver include feelings of being creative, uplifted, and happy. Due to these primary characteristics, the strain is well suited for focus, social engagements, and creative endeavors. While the plant maintains a consistent presence in current cultivation rotations as a reliable hybrid-sativa, there are no notable offspring recorded in the current breeder archives.

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: acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (IC50 0.44 mM) counteracting THC-induced short-term memory deficits; most widely encountered terpenoid in nature; anti-inflammatory via PGE-1.
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.
uplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
happy
anytimeGenetic Profile
Sativa-dominant
Primarily sativa with indica grounding. Uplifting with body relaxation.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.
