Indica-dominant hybrid that provides a true hybrid effect of mental stimulation and physically relaxing.
People enjoy the initial creativity and focus just as much as the calming physical high that makes them relaxed.
A true star of the cannabis world, Mango Sherbet (also spelled “Sherbert”) is a potent and deeply relaxing strain. Delivering powerful, full-body effects with the aid of its notable THC content, the Mango Sherbet strain isn’t to be taken lightly.
Known and loved as much for its delicious flavor as for its effects, Mango Sherbet fans describe it as “insanely tasty,” with hints of fresh berries, ripe mango, and rich tropical notes.
What gives strains of cannabis their unique flavors and scents? In large part they come down to its terpenes, or aromatic oils that define a given strain. In the Mango Sherbet strain, these important compounds include:
In practice, this specific terpene profile gives Mango Sherbet a memorable taste and aroma that includes the alluring scents we named a moment ago: Fresh, ripe fruit and a distinctively sweet aftertaste.
These aromatic compounds aren’t just exclusive to cannabis but occur in plants, trees, and even some insects and animals. They’re produced and secreted by trichomes, the same glands that produce potent cannabinoids such as THC and CBD.
While the exact lineage of this strain isn’t known, the Mango Sherbet strain is believed to be a hybrid descended in part from the legendary Sherbert strain, and offering a blend of indica and sativa effects. This means that it combines the classic relaxing “body high” of indica strains with the cerebral stimulation and uplift associated with sativa strains.
We’ve written about the botanical names indica and sativa previously, and how while they aren’t strictly accurate on a technical level, we continue to use them here at Vireo Health. Why? Because they help our customers make better purchasing decisions.
In the case of Mango Sherbet, the first thing you’ll likely feel is a powerful burst of creative energy and focus. Next comes a deeply relaxing body-based experience that many users rely on to help tame chronic pain, cramps, and muscle spasms as well as mental and emotional upsets such as stress and anxiety.
While it’s not the easiest strain to bring to fruition, Mango Sherbet can certainly be grown both indoors and out. If outdoors, a warm climate will be your friend, with harvest typically coming in October. Indoors, the time until harvest is roughly 8 – 10 weeks.
If you’re a fan of dessert strains, Mango Sherbet will not disappoint. With a blend of uplifting yet relaxing effects and a distinctly tropical flavor and aroma profile, Mango Sherbet is simultaneously sweet and satisfying.
