Further classification

The flowering time is recorded as approximately 56 days. Overall, this makes Magma feel neither generic nor interchangeable, but rather like a strain with a clear direction and an understandable profile. At its core is a cross of Shark x Critical. Aromatically, it presents a sweet, fruity direction: fruity, sweet, skunky and citrusy. Its effects lean towards the calmer side, with potency and calming qualities. With Magma, the aroma is not merely an addition but a central part of the strain’s identity. When comparing it with other strains, this effect profile is often more informative than a single THC value. The parent strains are therefore not merely an indication of origin, but also help to compare Magma more accurately with similar strains. The association with CBD Seeds helps to understand the strain not only through its name, but also through its breeding context. Its hybrid character is reflected above all in the combination of origin, aroma and described effects. In terms of character, the strain feels calm, physically oriented and substantial. As a hybrid, it brings several directions together without committing exclusively to just one side.
