Acid Dough

Classification: Sativa-dominant hybrid

Hook: 
Acid Dough is a fast-flowering, high-yielding sativa-dominant hybrid known for sweet-and-sour pineapple candy, tropical citrus, heavy resin, and an energetic euphoric effect. Its combination of unusual fruit-forward genetics and strong production earned second place for Best Sativa at the 2016 Expogrow Cup and the 2017 Spannabis Champions Cup.

Lineage: 
Acid Dough was created by Ripper Seeds by crossing a selected Lilly female with OG Badazz. Lilly, itself associated with Queen Mother and Congo genetics, contributes tropical pineapple, acidity, fast cerebral stimulation, and strong sativa character. OG Badazz adds resin production, flower density, earthy fuel, citrus, and physical depth. Ripper Seeds commonly describes Acid Dough as approximately 80% sativa and 20% indica.

Aroma / Flavor / Appearance: 
Acid Dough commonly carries pineapple candy, grapefruit, tropical fruit, citrus peel, sweet dough, earth, herbs, fuel, and occasional ammonia-like sharpness. Its flavor is especially known for balancing sugary pineapple with mouth-puckering acidity, followed by earthy OG depth and lingering tropical sweetness. Flowers are generally large, chunky, resinous, and heavily frosted, with green foliage, orange pistils, and violet coloration that may become more pronounced under moderately cooler finishing temperatures.

Effects & Use: 
Acid Dough is generally described as energetic, euphoric, uplifted, focused, creative, talkative, happy, and mentally activating. The experience often begins quickly with a bright cerebral rush and increased motivation, while the OG side may provide enough physical relaxation to soften the sharper sativa edge. It may suit daytime sessions, creative projects, music, social activities, outdoor recreation, or completing low-pressure tasks. Larger amounts may feel intense or restless for THC-sensitive consumers.

Medical / Wellness Use: 
Patients may look to Acid Dough for fatigue, low mood, stress, reduced motivation, or difficulty maintaining focus. Some patients may also appreciate its lighter physical relaxation for tension or general discomfort without immediately becoming heavily sedated. Because its cerebral effects can be strong and stimulating, patients sensitive to anxiety, racing thoughts, or elevated THC may want to begin with a smaller amount.

Grow Notes: 
Acid Dough generally finishes indoors in approximately 65 to 70 days, with outdoor harvests commonly expected around early to mid-October in suitable Northern Hemisphere climates. Plants grow vigorously, branch well, and produce high yields of large resin-coated flowers. Published estimates commonly range around 450 to 600 grams per square meter indoors, with outdoor production varying considerably by climate and plant size. Topping, FIM, low-stress training, SCROG cultivation, branch support, airflow, odor control, and sufficient vertical space can help manage its sativa growth. Moderately cooler late-flowering nights may encourage violet coloration, but excessive cold should be avoided.

Lab Profile: 
Published Acid Dough profiles commonly place THC in the high teens to low 20% range, with several references reporting approximately 22% to 23% and some seed listings extending toward 25%. CBD is generally low, while occasional commercial profiles report approximately 1% CBG. Expected dominant terpenes may include myrcene, beta-caryophyllene, limonene, and terpinolene, with possible contributions from ocimene and pinene, supporting its pineapple-candy, tropical, citrusy, earthy, spicy, and stimulating character.
