What is Dr. Who?
Leafly lists Dr. Who, also known as Doctor Who, as a hybrid from Homegrown Natural Wonders, made by crossing Mad Scientist with Timewreck, and describes it as about 60% indica. AllBud gives the same 60:40 indica to sativa split and calls it an indica-dominant hybrid.
Both parents have their own pedigrees. Leafly lists Mad Scientist as an indica-dominant Sannie's Seeds strain bred from Herijuana and White Widow, and Timewreck as a sativa-dominant TGA Genetics cross of Vortex and Blood Wreck, which is itself Trainwreck x Trinity. So Trainwreck is in Dr. Who's background, but it is not a direct parent.
Look, smell and taste
AllBud describes small to medium buds in a bright, light green with purple spotting, and a fruity smell it likens to a fruit salad. Leafly describes a sweet and sour aroma of pineapple and grape, and notes that plants may show fruity or diesel-smelling phenotypes.
Leafly reviewers' top flavours are flowery, earthy and citrus, while AllBud lists citrus, grape, pineapple, sweet and woody flavours over earthy, pungent and sour aromas. Leafly names myrcene, pinene and caryophyllene as the main terpenes; the cannabis terpenes guide explains what they are.
Effects people report
Leafly reviewers most often report feeling relaxed, happy and uplifted, and Leafly rates the effects as mostly energizing despite the indica lean; its write-up says the high comes without lethargy or sedation. The negatives reviewers mention most are dry mouth, dry eyes and feeling anxious.
AllBud describes a focused, can-do feeling with some weight in the body that does not stop you moving around, relaxed but not tired or lazy, and warns that it can leave you thirsty. It lists body high, creative, euphoric, happy and relaxing effects.
Effects vary from person to person. Health Canada advises starting low and going slow, and its lower-risk guidelines say not to drive for at least 6 hours after using cannabis.
How strong is Dr. Who?
Leafly lists 21% THC and 1% CBG and rates Dr. Who higher in THC than average, while AllBud lists 23% THC. THC varies from grower to grower and batch to batch, so go by the lab result on the label; see how much THC percentage matters.
Similar strains
Dr. Who's family tree links it to two strains with their own profiles:
- White Widow: one of the two parents of Mad Scientist, according to Leafly.
- Trainwreck: part of Blood Wreck, one of Timewreck's parents, according to Leafly.
