Think Different
Think Different is a modern, auto-flowering variety derived from ruderalis genetics. Designed for accessibility, this strain is considered easy to grow, thriving in both indoor and outdoor environments. It reaches maturity with a 63-day flowering period, though cultivators should anticipate a low yield from this specific genetic line.
The aromatic profile of Think Different is defined by a complex sequence of terpenes, led by myrcene, caryophyllene, and limonene, with subsequent notes of pinene, terpinolene, linalool, beta-pinene, humulene, nerolidol, ocimene, bisabolol, guaiol, camphene, caryophyllene-oxide, and p-cymene. This diverse chemical composition results in an olfactory experience that spans earthy, spicy, and citrus-forward nuances. As a THC-dominant variety, these terpenes work in concert to deliver a profile that is both nuanced and distinct.
Users report that Think Different produces effects characterized primarily by feelings of relaxation, happiness, and an uplifted mood. These properties make the strain a suitable choice for addressing symptoms of stress, pain, and sleep difficulties. Its influence on the broader cannabis landscape is evidenced by its role in the development of notable offspring, including Auto Mac #1.

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.
