9 Pound Hammer is an aptly-named 80% indica strain known for intense effects that hit almost immediately. Cannabis testing lab Analytical 360 has measured strain potency at between 14% and 23% THC, with a mild CBD profile that helps this strain earn its reputation as a potent pain-reliever. A favorite “nightcap” for medical users that can help promote sound, deep sleep; it’s consistently top-rated for combatting insomnia.
Lineage
9 Pound Hammer is a three-way cross between Jack The Ripper, Hell’s Angel OG and Gooberry created by Jinxproof Genetics. If you’re growing this indica-dominant strain it is best grown indoors. Short, bushy plants yield a heavy harvest of flowers with flowering occurring between 50 and 60 days.
Aroma
Dense, resin-coated buds deliver smooth, woodsy smoke with notes of grape and a subtle lime finish. 9 Pound Hammer’s earthy aroma is enhanced by the prevalence of terpenes Myrcene and pinene.
Looks
Definitely eye candy! Green leaves and glimpses of anthocyanin-rich purple mingle with yellow and orange pistils in large, multi-colored flowers with short leaves curled inward towards the central stem. These beautiful buds are blanketed with trichomes that make them deliciously sticky … and potent.
Effects
This indica is consistently top-rated for its relaxation properties and a full-body high that has a sedative effect. It delivers a pleasant euphoria that is not known for paranoia, making this strain a popular choice for moderating stress, stopping panic attacks and helping to combat depression.
In addition to amazing full-spectrum pain relief, 9 Pound Hammer is good for enhancing appetite in users who may have lost theirs due to medications or chemotherapy. This is a very popular strain for relieving insomnia and is a great addition to any collection for nighttime use among good friends.
