Rip Tide Strain Overview
Rip Tide is a cannabis strain with multiple genetic lineages from different breeders, creating several distinct versions. The most prominent version is a collaboration between Sin City Seeds and Surfr Seeds, created by crossing Point Break with Blue Power IX2. This version is renowned for its exceptionally high THC levels, typically ranging from 30% to 38%, contributing to its potent psychoactive effects. An alternative version from Enlightened Genetics crosses Jack the Ripper with Sour Tsunami, creating a mostly sativa variety that can be cultivated indoors, outdoors and greenhouse with a flowering time of approximately 63 days.
The Sin City Seeds collaboration version presents a complex terpene profile combining vibrant notes of candied grapefruit and tart mandarin, creating a bright citrus burst layered with hints of kerosene, sweet kush, and ripe berries. The flavor mirrors this aromatic complexity, offering a harmonious blend of sweetness and tanginess accented by subtle melon and kush undertones. Users frequently report a powerful yet balanced high that begins with an immediate cerebral uplift that gracefully transitions into deep, body-centric relaxation ideal for evening or nighttime use. The plants develop dense, resinous buds with vibrant coloration and impressive yield potential, making this strain particularly valuable for hash and concentrate production.
