Sidekick
Sidekick Strain Overview
Sidekick is a balanced 50/50 indica-sativa hybrid developed by Kick Boot Seeds, an Oregon-based cannabis company operated by breeder Shan. The strain was created through a complex genetic cross of (Trainwreck x Mexican/Thai x Afghani) X LA Cherry Haze (Black Cherry Soda x La Nina), combining classic landrace genetics with modern breeding techniques. Kick Boot Seeds has over three decades of experience developing genetics specifically for qualities such as mold resistance, ease of harvest, aroma, and flower density.
The strain exhibits excellent medicinal value according to breeder reports, with users noting that 'whatever is wrong simply fades away after use.' Sidekick produces plants of short to medium height with above-average yields and a potency rating of 8 out of 10. The cerebral effects suggest a well-balanced hybrid experience that draws from both its sativa and indica lineage. The strain represents a sophisticated breeding project that combines the uplifting genetics of Trainwreck with exotic landrace strains and the cherry-flavored LA Cherry Haze, resulting in a unique cultivar that showcases the breeder's expertise in developing resilient, high-quality cannabis genetics.
