Also known as: Berkley

Overview

Berkeley is a 100% pure sativa strain with unknown parentage due to breeder secrecy and an intensely high THC level ranging from 24-28% on average. It is rumored that this strain was created as an incredibly successful botany project of a student at Berkeley before spreading throughout the area, while another account suggests Berkeley is originally from an individual with cancer who worked on a science project at Berkeley University, or so the legend goes. The strain has been developed by Stoney Girl Gardens and has gained recognition as the Mother of almost everything we make, indicating its importance as a foundational breeding strain.

Visually, Berkeley buds have dense round nugs that are dark olive green with minty green patches and dark leaves. These nugs are covered in thick twisty fiery orange hairs and a fine layer of milky white trichomes and syrupy sweet resin. The strain presents an aroma of sweet spicy herbs with a savory hint and a taste of sweet herbal tea with a peppery spicy aftertaste upon exhale. Berkeley is notable for its very light flavor with very strong effects, making it a particularly potent option despite its subtle taste profile.
