Maple Sherbet

Origin and genetics

Maple Sherbet is a balanced (50/50) hybrid with stable genetics, excellent flavor and aroma, high yields, and an exhilarating high. The resin-filled buds make this strain ideal for hash lovers. With THC of 23+%, Maple Sherbet makes one potent hybrid. The CBD content is low at 0.3%.

This delicious hybrid is a cross between the flavor-filled sherbet and one of the best strains from the skunk line - the revered Pre-'89 Skunk. Dominant terpenes include Myrcene and Limonene.

Flavor, aroma, and appearance

As indicated by its terpene profile, Maple Sherbet has fruity and citrus tones with a dominating skunk aroma. It produces an intense skunk smoke that is thick and quite gentle on the throat. As it hits the palate, a skunk taste dominates with hints of fruit and citrus. Consumers experience a sweet aftertaste that lingers long after the smoking session.

The buds take on emerald and forest green hues, with rusty orange hairs dominating throughout. Maple Sherbet has a frosty look thanks to the thick, shiny layer of trichomes.

Growing

This is an easy strain to grow, making it suitable for amateur growers. The plants thrive indoors and outdoors and grow to a maximum height of 1.2m in a controlled environment and 1.5m in an open environment. Maple Sherbet requires an EC of water of 1.6 during its blooming stage and 2.0 as it flowers. The PH levels should be between 5.8 and 6.0 for optimum growth.

The strain is moderately resistant to mold, pests, and mildew. The flowering stage lasts for 8-9 weeks before growers get a chance to harvest up to 500 grams/m². The outdoor yield is impressive at 700 grams per plant.

Effects

Even though Maple Sherbet's genetics are balanced (Indica/Sativa), the effects tend to lean more on its Indica side. The strain will leave you relaxed for hours while enjoying mild cerebral stimulation. There is minimal sedation and couch-lock unless the hybrid is taken in high doses. This is an excellent afternoon or evening strain as it will help you relax as you remain functional enough to complete some tasks or simply relax as you enjoy your favorite playlist or tv series.

Medical benefits

Maple Sherbet is an effective analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent. It can also help with numerous mental conditions, such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, and stress. Lastly, Maple Sherbet can help patients with sleep and eating issues thanks to its sleep-inducing and appetite stimulation properties.
