What is the Cactus Breath strain?
Cactus Breath is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Cactus Breath is a cannabis strain that stems from the Cactus and Mendo Breath lineage. Cactus is an old-school cross of Afghani and Northern Lights indicas, while Mendo Breath is a heavy indica with OG Kush characteristics. The strain is bred by ThugPug Genetics and can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of 8-10 weeks. Its genetics are specifically Cactus x Mendo Breath F2 (Studly Spewright). Cactus Breath is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through a potent cross of the classic Cactus X Mendo Breath strains, with THC levels ranging from 17-21%. The strain's dense nugs could easily pass for a barrel cactus hiding under a rock; its chunky, full calyxes create round buds with protruding limbs and an opaque coat of trichomes. The smell is sweet, zesty and doughy with a floral back end. Although complex, Cactus Breath doesn't assault the tongue quite like it does the nose, with sweet, floral notes and a zesty twinge of hash covering the tastebuds for a sour, earthy flavor.
