Onyx

Onyx is a indica dominant hybrid (70% indica/30% sativa) strain with a character all of its own. THC testing typically lands between 16% and 22%, pairing raw strength with a 1% CBD content. It is sold as regular seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Onyx high creeps in gently before wrapping the whole body in heavy relaxation — expect softened shoulders, slowed thoughts and a warm couch-lock that deepens as the session goes on. A gentle mental uplift keeps the mood bright the whole way through, so the physical heaviness never tips over into fogginess. These combined effects make Onyx a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and insomnia and other sleep disorders, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

Onyx has a distinctive coffee and diesel flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a diesel finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded forest green nugs with cool blue undertones, curly amber hairs and a sticky layer of golden-white trichomes.

In the garden, Onyx is a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well in controlled indoor setups. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stay compact enough for tents and small rooms, which makes canopy management straightforward. Its genetics run through the wider Onyx family — see Onyx Cookies and Onyx Reloaded for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
