Dark Matter is a rare, evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing Cherry Thunderfuck and Rusty Haze strains.

Dark Matter is characterized by dense, sticky buds that are predominantly purple with thin orange hairs and a thick layer of frosty, glistening trichomes that can appear almost black in certain lighting conditions. The strain exhibits excellent bag appeal with beautiful, large buds and substantial resin production. Dark Matter is known for its distinctive aroma that blends sweet cherry and berry notes with earthy, woody undertones and subtle spicy accents. Users report that the strain delivers a buzzing cerebral effect that launches through the brain, creating feelings of euphoria and mental uplift, followed by a tranquil body high that promotes deep relaxation. With THC levels typically ranging from 22-25%, Dark Matter is considered a potent strain best suited for experienced cannabis consumers.
