Midnight Climax strain guide
Midnight Climax is a balanced hybrid made by crossing MK Ultra with a strain called Raven. People know it for a sweet citrus and tropical fruit smell with a hint of chocolate and some fuel underneath, and for a relaxed, euphoric feel.
Where does Midnight Climax come from?
Strain databases agree that Midnight Climax is a cross of MK Ultra and Raven. MK Ultra is itself a cross of OG Kush and G13, so Midnight Climax carries some of that old indica-leaning family. Raven is much less documented, and we couldn't find a reliable account of where it comes from.
One strain database credits Curio Wellness, a Maryland cannabis company, with the cross. It's usually listed as an even 50/50 hybrid.
What does Midnight Climax smell and taste like?
Most descriptions start with fruit: zesty citrus, tropical notes like mango, and a soft, creamy chocolate edge. Reviewers also pick up berry and a pungent gas or diesel note, and a few mention something spicy, almost herbal.
Myrcene is the terpene most often listed as dominant, though published terpene data for this strain is thin. The flavour is usually described as smooth, with citrus and berry up front and a little spice on the finish.
Midnight Climax effects: what people report
People most often call Midnight Climax relaxed, euphoric and happy, with an uplifted mood that some say also helps them feel creative or focused. A few describe a buzz that starts behind the eyes and spreads through the body, and a calm body feel that doesn't turn giggly.
These are experiences people report, not promises. Some people say it gets heavy and sleepy at larger amounts. Dizziness and feeling anxious are the most mentioned downsides, along with dry mouth.
How strong is Midnight Climax?
Published listings put Midnight Climax at about 20% to 25% THC, which is on the strong side, with very little CBD.
If you're new to it, start small and wait before having more. The numbers on your product's label matter more than the strain name, and our guide to reading cannabis labels explains what to look for.
Buying Midnight Climax in Canada
Midnight Climax is not a common name, so check that the label really says Midnight Climax and not a similar-sounding strain like Midnight or Midnight Snack, which are different plants.
If you find it, look at the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date, since fresher flower holds onto more of that citrus and chocolate smell.
Midnight Climax vs MK Ultra
MK Ultra is one of Midnight Climax's parents, and the two feel quite different on paper. MK Ultra is indica-leaning, with an earthy, piney smell and a reputation for coming on fast and turning heavy. Midnight Climax is listed as an even hybrid, and its smell is brighter and fruitier, with citrus, tropical and chocolate notes. Both are reported as relaxing, but Midnight Climax gets more mentions of an uplifted, creative mood. If you like earthy and heavy, MK Ultra is the classic. If you want something fruitier and more balanced, try Midnight Climax.
