Terpenes
Terpenes are another type of compound that is found within the cannabis plant. These compounds are present throughout nature, and every plant has a unique combination of terpenes that gives rise to different flavors and fragrances, which is why different strains of cannabis vary in smell and taste.
Beta-Caryophyllene
Myrcene
Pinene
Flavonoids
Flavonoids are one of the lesser-known compounds in cannabis, and little is known about the flavonoids present in each strain because they are rarely tested. Like terpenes, flavonoids add to each strain’s flavor and fragrance profile.
Studies have shown that the major flavonoids present in all cannabis plants are cannflavins A, B, and C.

Medical Applications
A combination of THC and CBD can help reduce the frequency and intensity of muscle spasms and any related neuropathic pain.
THC can stimulate the release of the sleep neurotransmitter, adenosine.
Cannabis contains many anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) compounds that can beat stress and reduce the production of the stress hormone cortisol.
Cannabinoids like CBD can help modulate serotonin transmission, giving it anti-depressant and anxiolytic effects.
Dosing
Although the THC content of Batgirl can vary significantly, the average potency seems to remain relatively stable. Batgirl is a potent strain, and users should be careful to allow plenty of time for recovery before attempting complex tasks.
Although Batgirl has strong mental effects, negative side effects resulting from overconsumption primarily include a sense of heavy limbs and impaired coordination. Inexperienced users can become anxious if not accustomed to the sensation.
For this reason, Batgirl is usually recommended for users with prior experience. However, those seeking a balanced effect but wanting to avoid too much THC may be interested in Batgirl phenotypes with lower THC percentages, which can be ideal for those with less cannabis experience.
Growing
There is little growing information available for the Batgirl strain, as it is relatively uncommon and reportedly challenging to grow. Due to this, Batgirl is recommended for experienced growers only.
Height
Jack’s Cleaner and Blueberry grow to medium heights, and it can be assumed that Batgirl will do the same. Most similar strains benefit from minor defoliation of large leaves to improve airflow.
Humidity and Temperature
No information is available regarding the humidity and temperature requirements of Batgirl. A good starting point would be 50% humidity and moderate temperatures, with adjustments as required.
Flowering
Batgirl can be grown both indoors and outdoors. The estimated flowering time is around eight to 10 weeks, but limited data is available on the exact timing. If grown outside, plants will likely be ready for harvest in October.
The parent colors of olive green and blue combine to create beautiful effects in the flower buds. Buds are blue-green, with bright amber hairs and thick amber trichomes. As both parent strains are high-yielding, likely, Batgirl is also a moderate- to high-yielding crop.
