R-4 (also circulated as Cindy’s Solution) is a hybrid selection bred out of the Reclining Buddha genetic family. Photoperiod cuts typically finish flowering in 8–10 weeks (~56–70 days) under indoor or greenhouse lighting.

Aroma and flavor

Jars of R-4 are most often described as showing toasted, nutty warmth, earthy, soil-like depth, creamy vanilla bean and sweet, sugary notes. Chemotype data points to peppery beta-caryophyllene, bright, citrus-forward limonene and crisp, forest-like pinene as the primary aromatic drivers, with batch-to-batch variation depending on cultivation and curing.

Reported effects

Consumers commonly report a lifted, positive outlook, creative, associative thinking and an upbeat, cheerful mood, making R-4 a frequent pick for late-afternoon or flexible social and evening use. The most commonly noted downsides are dry mouth.
