Avalanche is a rare sativa-dominant hybrid strain (60% sativa/40% indica) created through crossing the powerful SnoCap and Flo strains.

The strain has gained recognition for its unique combination of mental stimulation and physical relaxation, making it popular among hybrid enthusiasts seeking both cerebral effects and body buzz.
Avalanche buds are characterized by their super frosty appearance with long, narrow spade-shaped bright neon green nugs, lots of thin orange hairs, and plenty of sweet sticky resin coating. The strain's visual appeal matches its name, with an avalanche of frost covering the dense, sticky nuggets. The flowering time ranges from 65-72 days, making it a moderately long flowering strain that rewards growers with its distinctive appearance and potent effects.
