Light Ripper
Light Ripper Strain Overview
Light Ripper is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Irie Genetics through the careful crossing of the legendary P-91 and Jack the Ripper genetics. This strain represents the fusion of two powerful lineages: P-91, a balanced hybrid derived from Northern Lights crossed with itself three times (cubing process), known for its potent effects and uplifting characteristics; and Jack the Ripper, a flagship strain from Subcool's The Dank renowned for its intense lemon-pine aroma and energizing effects. Light Ripper typically exhibits approximately 70% sativa genetics with a balanced indica foundation that prevents excessive cerebral overstimulation.
The strain produces tall, bushy plants with stretchy characteristics and dense flower production. Buds feature a rich green coloration with vibrant orange pistils and generous trichome coverage, creating an attractive frost-like appearance. The aromatic profile is dominated by bright citrus notes, particularly lemon and lime, complemented by pine undertones and a distinctive skunky character with musky lingering notes reminiscent of dryer sheets. This complex terpene profile contributes to both its therapeutic potential and recreational appeal among cannabis enthusiasts seeking creative enhancement.

Light Ripper Strain Growing Information
Light Ripper has a flowering time of 56-63 days (8-9 weeks), making it a relatively quick-growing option for cultivators. Plants exhibit tall, bushy growth patterns with significant stretch during the flowering phase, requiring adequate vertical space and support for heavy flower production. The strain offers moderate yields and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Growers should implement early training techniques such as topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize light exposure and manage plant height. Good ventilation is essential to prevent mold issues due to the dense flower structure. The strain responds well to soil-focused growing methods and benefits from careful attention to nutrient management during the flowering phase.
