Editorial profile
HGH in detail
Origin & classification
HGH is an indica-dominant strain from GMO × Bruce Banner 2. With 26–28 % THC, HGH is clearly in the very strong range. CBD plays more of a secondary role at up to 1 %.
Aroma & flavour
HGH’s aroma is primarily chemical, citrusy and floral. Limonene, myrcene and humulene complement this impression well and give the profile additional depth. This means the strain is not simply sweet, but noticeably fuller and more modern.
Terpene profile
HGH is generally described as relaxing in its effects. Overall, the strain therefore tends in a calmer, more physical direction.
Effect tendency
Dense, compact and resinous flowers are also a clear part of this profile. It is also described as having a rather compact and stocky growth pattern instead of an airy structure that stretches extensively.
Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance
HGH is more suited to people who place greater emphasis on calmness, depth and physicality in a strain.
Further classification
What matters here is less a single effect than the calm, full overall impression. Its lineage also helps to understand the profile more quickly without making it seem schematic.
Further classification
HGH’s THC profile reaches 28 % and is therefore clearly potent. At up to 1 % CBD, this value is clearly secondary in HGH. It is primarily described as relaxing. Aromatically, it presents a sweet, fruity direction: chemical, citrusy and floral. Limonene, myrcene and humulene dominate the terpene profile. In the background is a cross of GMO x Bruce Banner 2. The more subtle notes make HGH less loud, but precisely because of this, clearer and calmer in impression. In HGH, limonene particularly complements the sweet, fruity side and gives it a fresher contour. This places HGH closer to strains described through calmness, physicality and a fuller character. The parent strains are therefore not merely an indication of origin, but also help to compare HGH more accurately with similar strains. In HGH, the THC level itself becomes a defining part of the strain description. HGH is also associated with a compact, resin-focused flower structure, which supports the rather full strain profile.
