Fragrances and Flavors

As the Sunshine weed strain is abundant in limonene, it emanates a citrus aroma with distinct earthy notes. This smell comes with a tropical touch and lemon hints that balance the excessive sweetness. These odors are explained by a high concentration of the myrcene and linalool terpenes. The flavor holds a tropical overtone as well.

Sunshine Strain Main Effects

The strain’s name does a good job of describing its uplifting effects that leave smokers happy and optimistic. Known for its energizing effects, it can inspire creativity and focus. Beginners may find this weed a little overwhelming. As the mind lifts, it makes stoners outgoing and giggly, at the same time providing deep relaxation. Sunshine is famous for lacking uncomfortable feelings on the comedown typical for most cannabis cultivars.

  • Migraines
  • Headache
  • Chronic pain
  • Muscle tension
  • Depression
  • Fatigue
  • Cramps
  • Arthritis
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Appetite loss

  • Paranoia

Growth Overview

This marijuana is not challenging to cultivate and is considered a novice-friendly plant. As typical for its Sativa genetics, Sunshine is pretty tall, with shrubs reaching 60’’-80’’, and may require pruning to maintain airflow and light penetration. It takes 56-65 days for its blooming cycle and rewards gardeners with beautiful flowers. The nugs are minty green and come in popcorn-like formations with a coating of amber trichomes. The time for the crops is in 69 days.

The strain is not available in a seed form, but gardeners can find clippings from authorized breeders and grow plant clones. You can expect bountiful yields of 1-2 oz./ft2 for indoor environments and 15-20 oz./plant for open-air setup.
