What is the Aphrodite strain?
Aphrodite is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Aphrodite is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that exists in two main variations from different breeders. The most prominent version was bred by Mad Mark Farms in Washington State, creating a cross between Jack Herer and Black Domina genetics. Named after the Greek goddess of love and beauty, this strain is renowned for producing euphoric effects that users report can help them 'fall back in love with their life while re-discovering the beauty of their surroundings.' A separate variant spelled 'Afrodite' was developed by Kannabia Seeds using the same parent genetics but with slightly different phenotypic expressions.
The Aphrodite strain is characterized by its pine needle green coloration with dark crystalline hairs and can display highlights of purple or blue depending on curing methods. The flowers exhibit dense, resinous buds with excellent calyx-to-leaf ratios, making it particularly attractive to hash makers. Both versions maintain the sativa structure, flavor profile, and uplifting effects inherited from Jack Herer while incorporating the improved yield and shortened flowering times from Black Domina genetics. The strain typically reaches heights of 1.4-2 meters outdoors with flowering periods of 7-9 weeks.
