Fission
What is the Fission strain?
Fission is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and creamy flavor profile.
Fission is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by Exotic Genetix, a respected breeder known for creating unique and potent cultivars. The strain was created by crossing the popular Gelato #41 with the lesser-known but potent Grease Monkey, resulting in a genetic profile that combines the best traits of both parent strains. Fission emerged in the mid-2010s as part of the wave of dessert-themed strains that gained popularity for their complex flavor profiles and reliable effects.
Visually, Fission plants produce dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance. The flowers typically display deep purple and dark green hues, often accented with vibrant orange pistils. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance that indicates high potency. The strain's name references both its explosive effects and the nuclear-like appearance of the trichome-covered buds under magnification.
Fission is noted for its complex terpene profile that combines sweet, fruity, and gassy notes. The strain has gained a reputation among connoisseurs for its balanced effects that provide both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation. While not as widely available as some mainstream hybrids, Fission has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities, particularly among those who appreciate dessert strains with potent effects.
