Blackout Truffle

Meet Blackout Truffle

Blackout Truffle is a balanced 50/50 hybrid bred by Terp Fi3nd in the 2010s. It combines two Chem-heavy lines into a pungent, earthy, diesel-leaning flower, with reported THC running from 18% to 28%. It is considered rare on shelves, and you may also see it listed as Blackout Truffles or Blackout Truffle F3.

🧬 Genetic Heritage & Lineage

Blackout Truffle is a cross of Bio Chem and White Cherry Truffle, released through Terp Fi3nd Genetics:

• Bio Chem: Chemdawg x Sensi Star
• White Cherry Truffle: 2012 Chemdawg Special Reserve x Cherry Lime #4 x Highland Afghani

Chemdawg sits on both sides of the family tree. That double dose of Chem ancestry helps explain the diesel and chemical funk reviewers keep noting. The Cherry Lime and Highland Afghani branches add sweeter, earthier notes. The F3 tag on some listings typically means a third filial generation, a sign the breeder kept working the line toward consistency.

Cannabinoid Profile

• THC: 18–28%. Most sources cluster around 18–22%, and one reports a high of 28%.
• CBD: 0.1–1%, so it offers very little CBD buffering.
• Chemovar: Type I, meaning THC-dominant.

👃 Terpene Profile & Aromatics

Terpene data for this strain is anecdotal. No lab percentages are available, but sources most often name myrcene as dominant:

• Myrcene: earthy and musky, and commonly linked to the strain's body-heavy relaxation
• Caryophyllene: peppery spice. It binds CB2 receptors, which is why it comes up in pain discussions
• Limonene: a citrus lift that may account for the happy, uplifted reports
• Pinene: a sharp pine note associated with alertness
• Linalool: a floral, calming accent
• Bisabolol: a soft, gentle floral note

On the nose you'll find earthy and pungent notes up front. Spicy, diesel and pine come next, and sweet, citrus, floral and woody hints sit underneath.

👅 Flavor Experience

The inhale leads with earthy diesel, then turns sweet and spicy, with citrus and pine brightening the finish. One source also describes cherry and cocoa notes, a nod to the White Cherry Truffle side.

🎯 Effects & Experience

Relaxed is the most consistently reported effect. Users also describe:

• Euphoric and happy mood lift

A few reports call it energetic. Effects likely vary with dose and phenotype: smaller amounts may stay bright and creative, while heavier sessions lean toward the couch.
