T1000 strain guide
T1000, also written T-1000, is a hybrid from Humboldt CSI that crosses Triangle Kush with Purple Urkle. People know it for an unusual nutty, fruity smell and a heavy, sleepy feel that most save for later in the day.
Where does T1000 come from?
T1000 is credited to the breeder Humboldt CSI. Two listings agree on the cross: Triangle Kush, the Florida OG line, and Purple Urkle, the grape-scented purple strain from Mendocino.
The name looks like a nod to the shape-shifting robot from the Terminator films, though the breeder's reasoning isn't documented. Humboldt's Most Wanted is listed as one of its offspring.
What does T1000 smell and taste like?
Descriptions of T1000 are a little unusual. One listing calls it nutty, like chestnut, with tree fruit, pine and wood. Another leans toward grape and vanilla sweetness with a skunky, diesel edge and a damp forest note. Both line up with what you'd expect from a grape-heavy purple parent and an earthy Kush parent.
Caryophyllene is reported as the leading terpene, followed by myrcene and linalool. Caryophyllene brings the peppery, woody side and linalool a soft floral touch.
T1000 effects: what people report
People most often describe T1000 as sleepy, relaxed and tingly, with a calm, heavy body feel. Some reviewers mention a happy, euphoric start, and a few call it creative or focused before it settles.
These are reports, not promises, and they depend on the batch, how much you have and your tolerance. Dry mouth is mentioned, and some people report feeling paranoid, anxious or dizzy.
How strong is T1000?
Published data on T1000 is limited. The main listing puts it around 19% THC with very little CBD. One reviewer claimed a much higher test result, but that number isn't verified.
With so little published, the label on your product matters more than usual. Start with a small amount and give it time before having more.
Buying T1000 in Canada
T1000 is a rare name, and it may show up written as T-1000 or T 1000. Check that the label describes the Triangle Kush and Purple Urkle cross if you want this exact strain.
If you find it, look at the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date on the label, since fresher flower holds more of its fruit and nut smell.
T1000 vs Purple Urkle
Purple Urkle is one of T1000's parents and the source of its grape side. Purple Urkle is all about sweet grape and berry with a classic heavy indica feel. T1000 keeps some of that fruit but adds earth, pine and a nutty note from its Triangle Kush parent, and it's usually listed as a hybrid rather than a straight indica. If you want pure grape, go with Purple Urkle. If you'd like that fruit with more Kush in the mix, try T1000.
