indica-dominant strain

Chicle

Chicle by TH Seeds crosses Bubblegum with Chemdawg. The Spanish name means “chewing gum” and matches the described aroma: a clear chewing-gum note is complemented by a Chemdawg influence. According to the source, the indica-dominant strain is particularly well regarded in Spain, has won several awards there and is considered uncomplicated to grow indoors.

Editorial profile

Chicle in detail

Origin & classification

The name Chicle already points to the most important characteristic of this strain: “Chicle” is the Spanish term for chewing gum. According to the documented lineage, TH Seeds combined Bubblegum with Chemdawg. The choice of name therefore directly references the Bubblegum side of the cross, while according to the source description, Chemdawg gives the profile a second, clearly recognisable aromatic direction.

Aroma & flavour

Chicle is listed as an indica-dominant strain and is said to enjoy a particularly strong reputation in Spain. The source also reports several awards at Spanish cups, but names neither the competitions nor the years or placements. The general reference to competition success can therefore be part of the portrait; a precise winning history would go too far without additional evidence. The response in Spain also explains why the meaning of the name is explicitly emphasised in the description.

Terpene profile

Chewing gum is the focus of the aroma. A hint of Chemdawg is also mentioned, contrasting with the sweeter underlying concept. The dataset contains no further specific flavour notes or analysed terpene profile. Chicle should therefore not be embellished with freely added fruit, earth, diesel or spice notes, even if such associations might seem plausible for the parent strains. The only well-supported description is the combination of chewing gum and a Chemdawg influence.

Effect tendency

The source describes Chicle as particularly shiny in appearance. This probably refers to the look of the flowers, although no more precise description of colour, density or trichome coverage is provided. For cultivation, the strain is presented as comparatively easy. It is said to deliver good results particularly indoors. Specific yields, plant heights, training methods or climate and nutrient requirements are not provided and therefore cannot be added responsibly.

Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance

There is a data conflict regarding flowering time. The visible field states eight to nine weeks, while the enriched raw dataset and Seedfinder reference indicate approximately 56 days. 56 days correspond to around eight weeks, but do not necessarily support the full range up to nine weeks. Until this is verified, a cautious formulation of approximately eight weeks is appropriate; an apparently exact, broader figure should be avoided.

Further classification

No specific information is available on THC, CBD, effects or terpenes. Chicle is therefore best understood through the clearly documented points: the cross of Bubblegum and Chemdawg, the Spanish chewing-gum name, the corresponding aroma, the response at Spanish competitions and the uncomplicated indoor cultivation described. Everything else requires additional sources.
