Carbon Fiber
Overview
Carbon Fiber is a hybrid cannabis strain with an impressive dark coloration reminiscent of the ultra-light yet durable polymer it's named after. Carbon Fiber is a hybrid strain created in Colorado, USA by a breeder known as Cannarado Genetics. Carbon Fiber is a hybrid weed strain made from a genetic cross between Grape Pie, Biscotti, and Cookies and Cream. Carbon Fiber is a hybrid strain created from a three-way cross of Grape Pie, Biscotti, and Cookies & Cream. A respected name in the US cannabis scene, Cannarado Genetics' experience growing and breeding weed dates back to the late 1990s. In 2009/2010, the breeder behind Cannarado Genetics became more present on online cannabis forums and eventually decided to launch an official seed bank to meet the growing demand for quality seeds as legalization spread across the US.
The dense, rock-hard buds of Carbon Fiber are a deep green to vivid purple in color. But what really makes this strain stand out is the thick blanket of sparkling white trichomes coating each nug. This visible layer of cannabinoid-rich resin gives Carbon Fiber buds the appearance of actual strands of carbon fiber. Carbon Fiber buds have fluffy rounded dark olive green nugs with thin, long red-orange hairs and a coating of tiny, milky white crystal trichomes. The strain exhibits an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing the potent (Cookies & Cream X Grape Pie) X Biscotti strains, though some sources describe it as Mostly Indica 60% Indica / 40% Sativa.
