Face Off IX
Also known as: Face Off BX2 IX3
What is the Face Off IX strain?
Face Off IX is a indica cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Face Off IX is an 80% indica-dominant hybrid strain developed by Archive Seed Bank, derived from the notable lineage of Face Off BX2. The strain represents the third incross (IX3) of the Face Off BX2 line, which itself traces back to the legendary Face-Off OG Kush phenotype #4 that was originally bred in the late 1990s in Southern California. This strain was selected from rare seeds for its overwhelmingly unique flavor and skull-crushing high, representing a strain not intended for lightweights as it may cause nausea in inexperienced users due to its potent initial head high. Face Off IX delivers an aroma of pine, earthy citrus, and diesel, with effects that include increased focus, heightened creativity, enhanced sensory perception, and an uplifted mood despite its indica dominance. The strain is particularly valued for heavy pain relief without the grogginess or fog of many pain medicines, making it a sought-after option for experienced cannabis users seeking potent therapeutic effects.
