Trophy Wife is a modern hybrid cannabis strain created through the crossing of Cherry Wine and Mac 1. This cultivar has established a presence in the industry for its productive characteristics, demonstrating a moderate growing difficulty while thriving in both indoor and outdoor environments. Growers can expect a high yield from this variety, which reaches maturity after a 56-day flowering period.
The chemical complexity of Trophy Wife is defined by a distinct terpene profile, led by high concentrations of myrcene, followed by caryophyllene, limonene, humulene, linalool, beta-pinene, and pinene. These compounds work in concert to create the specific sensory nuance associated with this hybrid, characterized by its balanced terpene composition.
As a THC-dominant strain with 23.9% THC, Trophy Wife is frequently utilized by consumers to address symptoms of stress, pain, and sleep-related issues, typically inducing effects that are categorized as relaxed, happy, and uplifted. Its influence on the cannabis landscape is underscored by its genetic legacy, serving as a parent for a wide range of offspring including Apple MAC, Galactic, Apple Invader, Strawnana Bread, Tropicannimal Mintz, Oil Tanker, Redneck Wedding, Sodak Sour, Bodhizafa, Chunk, Johnny Utah, and Lime Bars.
