Crown of Thorns

Crown of Thorns is a evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain with a character all of its own. THC testing typically lands between 23% and 29%, pairing raw strength with a 0.6% CBD content. Seeds come in regular form, and demand from home growers has never really slowed.

The Crown of Thorns high balances both sides of its lineage: a happy head buzz up front, and a soothing physical warmth that follows a few minutes behind. Neither side ever overpowers the other, which is exactly why well-bred hybrids like this one earn permanent shelf space. These combined effects make Crown of Thorns a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

On the palate, expect chocolate and lemon up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a lemon finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded bright neon green nugs, fiery orange hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

For growers, Crown of Thorns offers a demanding plant best left to experienced growers — expect plants flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks, at home indoors or outdoors. Dialed-in climate control and careful pruning are repaid with exceptional bag appeal and top-shelf potency. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Crown family — see Triple Crown and Zeta's Crown for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
