Double Impact
What is the Double Impact strain?
Double Impact is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Double Impact is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing two potent parent strains to create a balanced yet powerful effect profile. While specific breeding details are somewhat limited in publicly available documentation, the strain appears to have emerged from the West Coast cannabis breeding scene in the late 2010s. It has gained recognition among connoisseurs for its dual-layered effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense, resinous structure. The flowers exhibit a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues that may develop under cooler growing conditions. Orange pistils weave through the buds, and a thick coating of trichomes gives Double Impact a frosty appearance. The visual presentation is often described as striking, with well-formed nuggets that break apart to reveal complex internal structures.
Double Impact is noted for its complex aromatic profile that evolves during the curing process. The initial scent is often earthy and pine-forward, but as the buds are broken apart, more subtle citrus and diesel notes become apparent. This strain's name references its characteristic 'double' effect - an initial cerebral uplift followed by a deeper body relaxation - making it popular among users seeking both mental and physical benefits from a single strain.

How do you grow Double Impact?
Double Impact is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are generally good, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-700 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. Plants tend to be medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and potentially taller outdoors. Double Impact responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields. Growers should maintain stable temperature and humidity levels, as this strain can be somewhat sensitive to mold and mildew if conditions become too damp during flowering. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers reporting that the strain benefits from slightly reduced feeding during the final weeks of flowering to enhance flavor development.
