Dark Rainbow
Also known as: Dark Rainbow #6, Dark Rainbow 2.0
Dark Rainbow Strain Overview
Dark Rainbow is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (80% indica/20% sativa) created by Archive Seed Bank through crossing GMO (Garlic Mushroom Onion) with Rainbow Belts F1. This premium cultivar was specifically bred for hash production and combines the intense, pungent characteristics of GMO with the sweet, fruity complexity of Rainbow Belts, which itself is derived from Zkittlez and Moonbow genetics. The strain showcases a complex genetic lineage that includes Chem D, Cookies, and SherbDosi influences, resulting in a sophisticated terpene profile.
The strain exhibits dense, heart-shaped olive green buds with thin amber hairs and abundant milky white crystal trichomes, giving it a frosty appearance. Dark Rainbow's aroma profile is complex and distinctive, featuring a combination of sweet citrusy lemon-lime notes from the Rainbow Belts genetics blended with the earthy, pungent garlic and diesel undertones characteristic of GMO. The flavor experience begins with sweet and fruity notes on the inhale, followed by spicy peppery and herbal sage notes on the exhale. This cultivar has gained significant recognition in the cannabis community for its exceptional resin production, with some phenotypes yielding over 6% in hash production and testing above 30% THC content.
