Sherbert

Chemical Profile: High-THC, caryophyllene-dominant

Sherbert, sometimes called Sunset Sherbert, is Pink Panties crossed with a GSC phenotype (some believe it’s Thin Mint GSC). It typically delivers a fruity aroma that resembles berry dessert, with gassy and earthy undertones.

I love Sherbert for the balanced experience it provides. With this strain, I’m neither hyper nor sleepy—just smooth euphoria that pairs well with daytime activities. So, if you’re looking for a strain that won’t overpower you with a case of the Sleepy Mind, Sherbert (and strains with similar terpene profiles) may be the experience for you.

Sherbert most commonly expresses a terpene profile rich with caryophyllene and limonene. On average, its THC percentage ranges from 16-20%.

Blackberry Kush is a berry-tastic cross between Afghani and Blackberry. Straight up, Blackberry Kush always puts me down, down in an earlier round (see what I did there?!). It has a way of hitting my body with immediate and extreme relaxation, forcing my night to wrap up earlier than intended.

Blackberry Kush most commonly features a good amount of caryophyllene, followed by limonene. On average, Blackberry Kush expresses modest amounts of THC, usually ranging between 13-18%. Still, this strain delivers a mama-said-knock-you-out type of high that’ll send you straight to dreamland.

FPOG, formerly known as Fruity Pebbles OG (renamed for copyright reasons), is a sweet berry-packed cross between Green Ribbon, Granddaddy Purple, and Tahoe Alien.

FPOG retains a tropical berry flavor that’d please the palate of virtually any consumer. You can generally expect euphoric and blissful effects that enhance any daytime activity—but as with any high-THC strain, finding the right dose and a comfortable environment are key.

The most common terpene profile of FPOG features an abundance of myrcene and pinene. Its THC percentages range between 15-17%, making this a solid choice for intermediate-level consumers looking to inhale some fruity smoke without overwhelming potency.

Blueberry Cheesecake

Chemical Profile: High-THC, caryophyllene-dominant

Blueberry Cheesecake is a flavor-licious cross of Blueberry and Cheese. Led by its Blueberry parentage, Blueberry Cheesecake’s aroma features sweet blueberry overtones followed by pungent funkiness.

Consumers of Blueberry Cheesecake report various effects—some uplifted, some relaxed. This serves as evidence of what we already know to be true: The effects of strains vary between individuals. My experience was that, unlike its parents which both leave me couchlocked, Blueberry Cheesecake felt balanced in its high.

On average, Blueberry Cheesecake most commonly expresses an abundance of caryophyllene, limonene, and myrcene. Its THC percentages, on average, range between 16-18%.
