Uppercut
Also known as: Upper Cut, Humboldt Uppercut
What is the Uppercut strain?
Uppercut is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and berry and citrus flavor profile.
Uppercut is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing Purple Punch and Sour Dubb, though multiple breeding variations exist including CSI Humboldt's collaboration with UnderRated that combines Girl Scout Cookies x T-1000 with Purple Punch. This strain emerged during the 2010s cannabis breeding era when cultivators sought to fuse the electric clarity and pungent diesel characteristics of Sour strains with the sweet, candied berry depth of Purple Punch genetics.
Uppercut produces dense, oversized spade-shaped buds displaying vibrant forest green coloration with thin orange hairs and deep amber undertones. The flowers are heavily coated with chunky, amber-tinted white crystal trichomes that create a glistening, crystalline appearance signaling high resin content. The strain exhibits spectacular color variations ranging from pink to purple through light green and mauve, topped with a thick layer of frosty trichomes that enhance its striking bag appeal. This cultivar has earned recognition for its potent effects and distinctive aromatic profile that combines fruity sweetness with diesel fuel undertones.
