Cannabis Strain of the Week: Critical Mass

Critical Mass Overview

Average THC Level: 19% | 80% Indica – 20% Sativa |

The cannabis strain of the week, critical mass, is an Indica dominant hybrid. It gets its name from the heavy buds, and their tendency to break the branches of the plant they grow on. This variation of the plant is also known as “CBD Critical Mass.”

A cross between the Afghani and Skunk #1 strains, growers of this strain often find buds littering the floors of their greenhouses. The intention behind the plant was to create a stable strain with a massive yield and a very desirable high.
