What is Green Crack?
Green Crack is a sativa that Leafly describes as a cross of Skunk #1 and an unknown indica, also known as Green Crush and Mango Crack. Weedmaps lists Skunk #1 and an Afghani landrace as its parents, while AllBud says it was bred by inbreeding Skunk #1 and lists it as a sativa-dominant hybrid at 65% sativa. AllBud also notes a less common indica-heavy version.
The name has a story. Weedmaps says it was reportedly named Cush by its original breeder, Cecil C., and renamed Green Crack by Snoop Dogg for what he saw as its potent, sativa-like effects. Leafly notes that some people prefer Cush or Green Cush because the name gives cannabis a negative image. Weedmaps also says it took 3rd place for Best Sativa at the 2015 Denver High Times Cannabis Cup.
Look, smell and taste
Leafly describes a tangy, fruity flavour reminiscent of mango, and its reviewers most often report citrus, mango and earthy flavours. Weedmaps users report skunk, citrus and mango, and AllBud describes a sweet flavour with tropical and citrus notes over a citrus, earthy, mango and sweet aroma. AllBud says the buds are dense and tight, and Weedmaps describes small, densely clustered, resinous buds. Leafly lists myrcene as the dominant terpene, followed by caryophyllene and pinene.
Effects people report
Leafly describes sharp energy and focus with an invigorating mental buzz, and its reviewers most often report feeling energetic, focused and talkative. AllBud describes a cerebral high with a mood boost and a jolt of energy, and tags it creative, focused and happy. The most common negatives on Leafly are feeling anxious, dry mouth and feeling paranoid, and AllBud also mentions dry eyes and dizziness.
Because the high is stimulating, start with a small amount. Health Canada lists anxiety, fear or panic among the possible short-term effects of cannabis, and its lower-risk guidelines say not to drive for at least 6 hours after use.
THC and potency
Leafly lists about 17% THC, AllBud 15 to 25% and Weedmaps 13 to 25%. The wide spread reflects different growers and batches, so check the lab-tested number on the package. For context, see how much THC percentage matters.
Similar strains and relatives
Green Crack's family is tied to Skunk #1, which every source names as a parent, and Weedmaps also lists Afghani as a parent and among its most similar strains. Further down the line, Leafly lists Green Crack as a parent of Green Ribbon, a San Jose strain that also draws on Trainwreck, Afghanica and White Rhino, as well as God's Green Crack and Green Lantern.
