Quicksilver Strain Overview
Quicksilver is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (60% sativa/40% indica) created by Amsterdam Genetics through crossing the legendary Super Silver Haze with Mimosa. This strain is named for its quick-hitting effects that provide near-instantaneous energy and euphoria, making it particularly popular as a wake-and-bake strain for those needing a burst of morning motivation. The strain combines the award-winning genetics of Super Silver Haze, a Cannabis Cup winner known for its energizing cerebral effects, with Mimosa's uplifting and creative properties. Quicksilver plants grow to medium height with a dense structure and produce compact, resin-rich buds adorned with orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. The strain is noted for its balanced effects that provide mental stimulation without overwhelming intensity, making it suitable for both novice and experienced users. Users report that despite its sativa dominance, Quicksilver maintains a relaxed quality that doesn't interfere with creativity or daily activities, earning it a reputation as an ideal social strain.
