Editorial profile

Green Crack in detail

Origin & classification

Before the strain became known as Green Crack, its breeder Cecil C. is said to have called it Cush—with a “C” specifically. The name now widely used is attributed to Snoop Dogg in the source. Because of the term’s problematic associations, some people continue to use Cush, Green Cush or Green Crush; Mango Crack is also documented as an alternative name.

Aroma & flavour

The source description lists Green Crack as a sativa-dominant cross of Skunk #1 and an unknown indica. Since the second parent has not been identified, its lineage should not be described in greater detail. As a clone-only strain, it should also be distinguished from later seed lines with similar names. According to the dataset, Green Crack took third place in the Sativa category of the Denver High Times Cannabis Cup in 2015.

Terpene profile

The aroma is described as spicy and fruity, with ripe mango particularly prominent. The structured fields add citrus, tropical sweetness, earth and skunk. The continuous description names myrcene and caryophyllene as well as pinene among the terpenes, while the structured field contains some different or additional designations. For this reason, the public text focuses on the consistently documented components without deriving specific effects from them.

Effect tendency

Users primarily associate Green Crack with a sharp energy boost and noticeably increased focus. An uplifted mood, mental stimulation, sociability and creative activity are also reported. The profile is therefore generally perceived as clear and invigorating. Such effects are subjective and may vary depending on dosage, product and individual sensitivity. Medical use claims from the source have not been included.

Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance

For THC, the dataset gives a range of approximately 17 to 21 percent, while the continuous text states an average of 17 to 20 percent. These values are for orientation only, as cannabinoid levels vary between phenotypes and batches. According to the description, the flowers appear bright green, resinous and rich in detachable trichomes. Their structure is described as rather loose than compact. Together with mango, skunk and the predominantly mentally stimulating effects, this creates a clearly defined profile that has historically become known as much for its various names as for its sensory characteristics.
