Black Dawg V2
Cannabis Strain by SoCal Seed Collective
Introduction
Black Dawg V2 from SoCal Seed Collective represents a refined second version of the Black Dawg genetics program—developed by a collective of established California MMJ breeders who breed medical-grade cannabis for their own personal needs rather than commercial profit. This 60-day flowering creation carries the authenticity of genuine medical breeding.
Lineage
**Genetic Lineage**
SoCal Seed Collective is a group of reputable California MMJ breeders united by the goal of developing the highest-quality medical cannabis genetics for collective personal use—not commercial sale. This not-for-profit breeding philosophy produces varieties developed purely on quality merits. Black Dawg V2 represents an improved iteration of the Dawg genetics program incorporating black/dark indica characteristics. Dawg genetics typically reference the legendary Chemdawg/Chem Dawg lineage—one of American cannabis breeding's most influential genetic families, known for exceptional potency, fuel-forward aromatics, and the cerebral intensity that made it famous. The "Black" component adds dark indica depth and the V2 designation indicates improved selection from the original.
Terpenes
**Terpene Profile**
Black Dawg V2's aromatic profile builds on Dawg genetics' characteristic fuel-forward complexity: beta-caryophyllene drives the fuel-spice pungency that defines Chem/Dawg varieties; limonene adds citrus brightness; myrcene provides earthy depth. The black genetics component adds the dark, musky earthiness that gives this variety greater aromatic density than standard Dawg expressions. The V2 designation suggests the second iteration specifically selected for superior terpene expression over the original Black Dawg.
Growth
**Growth Characteristics**
Black Dawg V2 completes in approximately 60 days of flowering. SoCal Seed Collective's medical breeding focus produces varieties selected for consistent cannabinoid profiles and reliable performance in California growing conditions. The not-for-profit breeding philosophy means selection is based purely on quality rather than commercial appeal—producing genetics that genuinely excel rather than those optimized for marketing appeal.
Effects
**Reported Effects & Experience**
Dawg-family genetics are universally recognized for exceptional potency and distinctive cerebral effects that combine mental intensity with physical relaxation. Black Dawg V2's medical pedigree emphasizes therapeutic quality alongside recreational excellence. The black genetics addition deepens the physical component of Dawg's effect profile, creating a more balanced indica-forward experience than standard Dawg expressions while maintaining the cerebral character that defines this genetic family.
