About the Shire
The Shire crosses Durban Poison with Silver Haze into a hybrid with a gentler footprint, its THC ceiling landing at about 15 percent, on the lower end for this database. Its terpene profile runs six compounds deep: limonene, caryophyllene, myrcene, linalool, humulene, and caryophyllene oxide, a broad spread for a strain this mild in potency. No breeder has been confirmed, and no flowering time, yield, height, effects, flavors, or medical uses have been documented alongside that chemistry. The Tolkien-inspired name suits a plant built around approachability, a lower-THC option offering real terpene complexity without demanding much tolerance, even if the specific sensory experience those compounds create hasn't yet been written down in plain language.
