Heisenberg Diamonds Sweet Zz

Leafly’s description credits Royal Queen Seeds with Sweet ZZ, and Heisenberg uses the strain’s name for these THCA diamonds, a concentrate made of crystals.

A Grape Ape and Grapefruit cross

Leafly says Sweet ZZ comes from a genetic cross of Grape Ape and Grapefruit, and the same two strains appear as parents in its genetics tab. Leafly files the strain under hybrid and gives the split as 80% indica to 20% sativa.

Grapefruit, pineapple and myrcene

Grapefruit, pineapple and grape are the flavour tags Leafly shows for the strain. Its description speaks of sweet berries and citrus with a hint of earthiness, and names myrcene as the dominant terpene; pinene and ocimene come next in its terpene data. Individual Leafly reviewers mention a berry smell and sticky flower with a citrus scent.

How Sweet ZZ reviewers describe the high

The effects Leafly reviewers report most for Sweet ZZ are uplifted, creative and relaxed, and tags such as giggly, tingly, euphoric and happy also turn up. Leafly’s description calls the strain mood-lifting, with a sense of contentment. The strain averages 4.5 on Leafly, from 6 ratings.

Separated from the extract as crystals

Diamonds are THCA that has crystallised out of a cannabis extract as it separates. Heating is the step that converts that THCA into THC. Our diamonds explainer covers how the crystals are produced.

Caution for first-timers, and a 6-hour rule

In its lower-risk advice, Health Canada classes extracts, among them hash, kief, wax and shatter, as high in THC and suggests first-time and occasional users avoid them; diamonds are crystals drawn from an extract. A 6-hour gap between using cannabis and getting behind the wheel is the least that Health Canada’s lower-risk guidelines allow.
