Chin Check
Also known as: Chin Checked
What is the Chin Check strain?
Chin Check is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 33.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and cherry and citrus flavor profile.
Chin Check, also known as Chin Checked, is a slightly indica-dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) that has gained recognition in West Coast connoisseur circles before spreading through clone swaps and limited seed drops. Created through crossing Gassious Clay and Motorbreath strains, this modern boutique cultivar is named for its assertive punch - many enthusiasts describe that a single deep inhale "checks your chin" with fast-onset potency. The strain rose to prominence through grassroots breeding efforts by small-batch cultivators rather than large commercial seed houses.
Chin Check presents dense, grape-shaped forest green buds with dark leaves, thin orange hairs, and a coating of tiny white trichomes. The strain is characterized by its extremely sedating effects that can onset rapidly and intensely, often leading users to feel dazed and super calm before succumbing to a heavy physical high that starts as a tingle in the spine and spreads throughout the body. This combination frequently results in sleep before users even realize the full impact of the strain's effects.
