Hybrid

Buddha’s Tooth

Buddha’s Tooth, also known as Enlightened OG, is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain that is a cross between the legendary strains of Buddha’s Sister and Sweet Tooth. Some enthusiasts argue that it is a cross between Buddha’s Sister and Tooth Fairy. Buddha’s Tooth is known for its high THC content, which averages around 22%, but can sometimes reach up to 24%. The strain is composed of 60% sativa and 40% indica.

Buddha’s Tooth is renowned for its uplifting and energizing effects, making it a favorite among those seeking a boost in creativity and focus. However, beginners should approach this strain with caution due to its potent cerebral effects. The high THC content in Buddha’s Tooth may make it beneficial for those dealing with stress, depression, and fatigue. The strain is reported to have a unique flavor profile, combining sweet, fruity, and earthy notes with a hint of mint.

Medical Applications

Buddha's Tooth strain is effective in alleviating symptoms of chronic pain and insomnia. Its calming effects are also beneficial for individuals suffering from anxiety and stress.

Depression

Cannabis, specifically its components like CBD and THC, has been shown to help with depression by interacting with the endocannabinoid system in our bodies. This system is responsible for regulating various functions, including mood. The cannabinoids in cannabis can help stabilize mood and ease depression by boosting the endocannabinoid system. Some research suggests that cannabis can increase serotonin levels, a neurotransmitter that plays a significant role in mood regulation. However, more research is needed to fully understand the potential benefits and risks.

Chronic Pain, Muscle Pain and Other Types of Pain

Cannabis contains compounds known as cannabinoids, with the most well-known being delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). These compounds interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in regulating pain. THC has analgesic properties that can help reduce pain, while CBD can help reduce inflammation, a common cause of many types of pain. Additionally, cannabis can help improve sleep, which can in turn help manage chronic pain conditions. Some studies have shown that medical cannabis can help replace or reduce the use of opioids for pain management.

Dosing

When using Buddha’s Tooth strain, start with a small dose, especially if you’re a beginner or have a low tolerance. This could be a small puff if you’re smoking or vaping, or a small bite if you’re consuming it in an edible form. Wait for at least an hour to see how it affects you. If you feel comfortable and want a stronger effect, you can gradually increase your dose. Always remember, it’s easier to take more, but impossible to take less once you’ve consumed it. Listen to your body and find the dose that works best for you.

Growing

Growing the Buddha’s tooth strain is a bit challenging due to its unique genetics. Hence, the process might be more suitable for seasoned growers. Indoors cultivation is the best choice for this strain, as it allows for better control of its growth conditions.

Buddha’s Tooth strain plants typically grow to a medium height and when grown under optimal conditions, they yield generously.

Humidity and Temperature
