In comparison to many other cannabis strains, the Cherry Bomb has a unique fragrance and flavor profile due to its sweetness from cherry and berry notes and deep earthy, pine and spicy undertones. Because the Cherry Bomb has various breeding lines, there is no single genetically defined characteristic that applies to all ‘Cherry Bombs’. This means that each breeder/batch may have an entirely different look/terpene profile/cannabinoid content.

While most people associate the Cherry Bomb with a sweet fruit type profile, the true scent is far more complicated than implied by the name.
Newly cut flowers may emit initial scents reminiscent of fresh cherries, berries or fruit candies. Breaking open the bud will expose secondary scents such as damp soil, pine, herbs, pepper and citrus peel.
The ratio of the second note to the first note is dependent upon the individual flower’s terpene profile. An example rich in myrcene would likely have a greater earthy/herbal scent while a higher pinene concentration could give the profile a sharpness and forest like quality. Beta-caryophyllene adds dry pepper/spice while limonene can enhance citrus characteristics.
Due to this variable nature of terpenes found within each individual flower, the Cherry Bomb may experience a wide variety of expressions ranging from very candy-like to much more earthy/spicy without changing into a completely new strain.
There are two main aspects that need to be recognized regarding the Cherry Bomb — primarily the fact that the name “Cherry Bomb” does not represent the same genetic lineage as previous descriptions.
Previous older versions of “Cherry Bomb”, were frequently identified as having Hawaiian-influenced genetics. On the other hand, Bomb Seeds has developed a separate version of “Cherry Bomb” using Big Bomb and selected fruity female plants.
If you’re trying to determine whether your Cherry Bomb flowers match those described above or compare them with other Cherry Bomb for sale UK options available on today’s market, the following traits should help differentiate them from the rest:

Another common attribute of high quality Cherry Bomb is excessive resin production. Trichomes are tiny glandular appendages located throughout the surface area of flowers that contain many of a cannabis plant’s cannabinoids and aromatic compounds. Heavily covered in trichomes, high quality flowers tend to exhibit their distinctively frosted or crystallized appearance.
