Facekicker
Also known as: Face Kicker
Facekicker Strain Overview
Facekicker is a potent hybrid cannabis strain that has gained attention for its powerful effects and distinctive characteristics. The strain's name reflects its reputation for delivering intense, fast-acting effects that users describe as immediately noticeable. While its exact origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding records, Facekicker appears to have emerged from the West Coast cannabis scene, likely developed through selective breeding of high-THC parent strains to maximize potency and effect intensity. The strain has developed a following among experienced cannabis consumers seeking strong psychoactive experiences.
Visually, Facekicker typically produces dense, resinous buds with a frosty trichome coverage that gives the flowers a crystalline appearance. The coloration ranges from deep forest green to sometimes displaying purple hues, particularly in cooler growing conditions. The buds are often tightly packed with orange to amber pistils weaving through the floral structure. The strain's aroma profile is complex, combining earthy base notes with sharper, more pungent elements that some users compare to diesel fuel with subtle fruity undertones.
Notably, Facekicker has earned its name through user reports of effects that come on quickly and with considerable intensity. The strain is generally considered suitable for evening or nighttime use due to its potentially overwhelming properties for inexperienced consumers. Breeders and growers have focused on stabilizing the strain's genetic expression to maintain its characteristic potency while attempting to preserve some of its more desirable flavor elements. As with many high-potency strains, responsible consumption practices are recommended, particularly for those unfamiliar with its effects.

Facekicker Strain Growing Information
Facekicker is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed, though it can also be grown outdoors in Mediterranean-like climates. Plants tend to be medium in height with a bushy structure that may require training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize light penetration and airflow. Yield is generally moderate to high with proper care, producing dense, resinous buds. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests and mold, particularly in the dense bud structure. Nutrient requirements are average, though the plants respond well to bloom boosters during flowering. The strain's high resin production makes it suitable for extraction purposes.
