Sleeping Monkey
Sleeping Monkey Strain Overview
Sleeping Monkey is a predominantly sativa-dominant cannabis strain developed by The Bank Genetics, featuring an 85% sativa to 15% indica ratio. Created by dedicated breeders in the mid-2010s as part of a project to recapture the essence of classic sativa strains that many felt had been lost through decades of hybridization, this strain was specifically designed to capture traditional sativa heady effects while enhancing robustness and resistance to common cultivation challenges. The strain represents a modern cannabis breeding achievement that delivers both medicinal and recreational relief, with breeders conducting extensive research into classic sativa varieties to ensure Sleeping Monkey retained signature characteristics prized by connoisseurs.
The strain exhibits distinctive characteristics including very dense flowers with big, bold, nostril-searing terpene profiles that bring significant funk to the aromatic experience. With its tall to very tall growth stature and above-average yields, Sleeping Monkey maintains the robust traits of its ancestors despite modern hybridization challenges. The strain is noted for its ammonia and chemical terpene profile characteristics, creating a unique sensory experience that reflects its carefully curated genetic heritage.
