Cheese Quake is an indica-dominant hybrid with a 60/40 indica-to-sativa ratio. With THC levels reaching up to 20%, it delivers a potent body high known for its couch-lock effects, paired with a strong sense of mental euphoria—making it an excellent choice for easing stress and lifting low moods after a long day. While it contains a moderate CBD level of around 1.5%, it's not sufficient for conditions requiring high-CBD treatments, such as seizures. Instead, Cheese Quake is commonly used to manage depression, anxiety, insomnia, and chronic pain.
This strain, a cross between Cheese and Querkle, offers a distinctive cheesy aroma complemented by sweet, tea-like flavors. Its deeply relaxing effects are best suited for evening use, as it can leave you too mellow to stay productive. Typical side effects include dry mouth and dry eyes, with occasional reports of headaches, dizziness, or paranoia.
Cheese Quake is widely available, particularly popular in regions like the Pacific Northwest, Colorado, and Michigan.
