Also known as: Dresden Green Diamond
Green Diamond Strain Overview
Green Diamond is an indica-dominant hybrid strain that has emerged in multiple variations from different breeders. The most commonly referenced version is created through crossing Green Crack with Diamond OG, resulting in an 80% indica/20% sativa hybrid. This strain gained attention for its mysterious ancestry, as the Green Crack lineage stems from Skunk #1 crossed with an unknown indica, while Diamond OG is a powerful phenotype of the OG family with uncertain origins. A newer variation called 'Dresden Green Diamond' from Garden of Green crosses Green Crack with Jorge's Diamonds, maintaining similar indica-dominant characteristics.
The strain is renowned for its striking appearance, featuring bright conical olive green nugs with thick reddish-orange hairs and a super frosty coating of chunky, amber-tinted white crystal trichomes. The buds are densely packed and covered in powdery white trichomes that give them a diamond-like sparkle, earning the strain its name. Green Diamond produces a complex aroma profile combining sweet fruity raspberries, sour citrus, and sugary tropical pineapples, with subtle piney undertones characteristic of OG strains. The flavor profile mirrors the aroma with a bouquet of freshly picked red berries, zesty pineapples, mango notes, and honey-coated flowers.
