TNT is a modern hybrid-sativa cultivar derived from Star Dawg. As a product of contemporary breeding efforts, the strain maintains a reliable genetic foundation based on its singular parentage. Cultivators can expect a moderate difficulty level when managing this plant, which is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. The plant requires a 75-day flowering period and is known for producing a high yield at the end of its harvest cycle.
The sensory profile of TNT is defined by a terpene concentration led by terpinolene, followed by myrcene and caryophyllene. This specific arrangement of compounds dictates the strain's aromatic and flavor characteristics. As a THC-dominant variety featuring approximately 7.1% THC, the chemical composition prioritizes a balanced expression of these dominant terpenes, providing a distinct profile for users identifying nuances in the botanical chemistry.
The effects associated with TNT are characterized by elevated, creative, and happy sensations. These qualities make the strain particularly well-suited for activities requiring creativity, social engagement, or sustained focus. Currently, there are no recorded offspring associated with this strain, leaving TNT as a standalone entry in modern breeding lineages with no documented genetic descendants.

Research notes below describe isolated terpene mechanisms and early findings. They do not guarantee effects from this strain and are not medical advice.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.

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.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is TNT indica or sativa?
TNT is modeled here as a sativa-dominant (primarily sativa with indica grounding).
What terpene is dominant in TNT?
Limonene is shown as the dominant terpene at approximately ~60%. Myrcene follows as the secondary terpene.
Is TNT good for daytime use?
TNT is versatile and works across different times of day depending on dose and individual response.
