What Black Dog feels like
The grower hasn't scored the Black Dog strain for effects yet, so go by the type and the terpenes below. As an indica-leaning hybrid the safe assumption is evening.
Where Black Dog comes from
AltSol hasn't published the cross behind Black Dog, and we won't guess. What we can vouch for is the lab sheet on this page and the way it smokes, which staff have tried.
AltSol (Alternative Solutions) grows in the District and supplies most of our flower and the Good Night / Great Day pre-roll packs. Consistent jars, honest lab sheets, and a house style that leans gassy. More on the grower at altsol.co.
When to use it
Keep it for after work. Black Dog is built for a sofa and a long evening, not a to-do list.
Lab sheet
Black Dog strain terpenes and aroma
In the Black Dog strain limonene leads at 0.44%, out of 1.43% total terpenes. Limonene, caryophyllene and myrcene make up most of what you'll smell.
- Limonene 0.44% Smells like: citrus, lemon, herbal Same terpene as lemon rind. When it sits near the top of the sheet the aroma is sharp and clean rather than sweet.
- Beta Caryophyllene 0.31% Smells like: sharp, spice, sweet, wood Caryophyllene is the terpene researchers single out most often, because it behaves a little differently from the rest. On the nose it is pepper and clove.
- Beta Myrcene 0.24% Smells like: earthy, musk, cloves Myrcene is the most common terpene in cannabis and the one people associate with a heavier, couch-leaning feel.
- Humulene 0.13% Smells like: herbal, spice, woody, earthy Humulene is the hoppy, woody note. It is the same compound that gives beer its bitterness.
- Linalool 0.10% Smells like: floral, herbal, lavender Linalool is the lavender terpene. Strains with a decent amount of it often get described as calming.
Terpene percentages are from the current batch's certificate of analysis. Our guides explain how to read one and why the total matters more than the THC.
