What is the LifeSaver strain?
LifeSaver is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and candy flavor profile.
LifeSaver is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (70% indica, 30% sativa) bred by B.O.G. Seeds, created through a cross of BOG Bubble and SubCool's JCB (Jack's Cleaner × Blueberry). The strain was specifically developed as a medical variety by B.O.G. Seeds, representing their first truly medicinal strain with notable pain-killing properties. LifeSaver gained recognition in the cannabis community and won 5th place at the IC 420 Growers Cup 2008 in the Sativa category. The strain features dense, resinous buds with deep green coloration accented by bright orange pistils and a heavy coating of crystalline trichomes. Its complex lineage traces back through legendary strains including Northern Lights, Haze genetics, and Afghani landraces, contributing to its robust indica-dominant characteristics while maintaining some sativa influences. LifeSaver is named for both its candy-like aroma reminiscent of Life Savers candy and its therapeutic 'life-saving' properties for medical users dealing with chronic pain conditions. The strain has become a foundation for numerous crosses and variants, including Sour LifeSaver, demonstrating its genetic stability and desirable traits.
