What is the Super Critical strain?
Super Critical is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and fruity flavor profile.
Super Critical is a renowned indica-dominant hybrid (70% indica, 30% sativa) developed by Green House Seeds through crossing Big Bud, Skunk #1, and White Widow. This strain emerged from Amsterdam's cannabis breeding scene in the 2000s and has since become one of the most popular genetics worldwide due to its exceptional yield potential and potent effects. The strain represents a careful balance of classic genetics, combining Big Bud's massive yield potential with Skunk's pungent aroma and White Widow's resin production. Super Critical plants are characterized by their medium height, stocky structure, and dark green leaves that sometimes display purple hues. The dense, trichome-coated buds are notably thick and resinous, reflecting the strain's indica-dominant genetics. The complex terpene profile dominated by myrcene and limonene creates a distinctive aroma featuring dank, skunky notes with sweet, fruity undertones and hints of citrus and spice.
