Shark
Also known as: Tiburon
What is the Shark strain?
Shark is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 23.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Shark is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by Spanish breeder Pyramid Seeds through the crossbreeding of Super Skunk and Northern Lights genetics. This strain should not be confused with Great White Shark, as it represents a distinct lineage from the classic indica families rather than the 'White Family' strains. Developed to showcase the best characteristics of its legendary parent strains, Shark exhibits the robustness and ease of cultivation associated with Northern Lights while incorporating the potent resin production and aromatic qualities of Super Skunk.
The strain presents as a compact plant with thick, sturdy stems and wide olive-green leaves that develop large, resin-filled buds. The flowers are notably dense and roundish, covered extensively in sticky resin that can coat even the leaves closest to the buds. The heavy trichome production is so abundant that it can cause leaves and branches to bend under the weight, often requiring structural support during flowering. The visual appeal is enhanced by the crystalline appearance of the heavily frosted buds, which display a frosty, snow-like coating of trichomes that gives the strain its distinctive appearance.
